I went from a 2dr Golf to a 4dr Golf and I'm finding the back doors really convenient for the amount of stuff I cram in my car.

We have a 2dr Civic and a 4dr Golf and I don't know if I can go back to having a 2dr unless it's a two seater.

I have an SUV and a five door hatch, I honestly don't use the back passenger doors on either more than once a month if I drop something in the back seat and need to get it out.

My E46 coupe has such awesome flip-forward seats that I've never missed extra doors. Lesser coupes are annoying, tho.

Winter beater time! 03 Protege LX 2.0 5-speed. New alternator, timing belt, water pump, coils, spark plugs, brakes, windshield, and I have winter wheels with studded tires in the garage that fit! Cosmetically it's pretty beat up with dents and scratches but that just means less fucks to give when some dingbat hits it in the parking garage at the hospital.

Nice! I'm up to just over 400 miles on my 15 Silverado and love it so far. I can definitely understand why so many people spend big $$ on full size trucks especially now that the interiors are so nice.



Coming from an E55 AMG I am actually getting better fuel mileage too.

I can't get over that front end. I know every manufacturer wants you to instantly tell its their car but maybe design the dart around the charger and not vice versa.

Cool color though and good call on the scat.

Geez I was just thinking how ridiculous these massive flat fronts look and didn't even pay attention to the wheel wells. You're right though, they're even worse. To be fair there aren't a lot of options for good looking full size trucks these days.
