The definition of “rust free” often means “there are no aftermarket holes in any of the panels.”

I thought it means that the carpet is only holding the interior together

It's a little long for my tastes, but it looks really snappy, the interior looks like they couldn't decide what they wanted, but still good and high effort, and mid-$50k sounds really good for a brand new, hybrid electric, dedicated rough-road vehicle

What parts of it are actually bad? Like, that's what the vehicle should cost, are you upset that a company is not gouging enough on one of their more globally important platforms?

Yeah right, my neighbor cranks his built 351 '69 Mustang now and then just to rev it cuz he never drives the drat thing, might as well have the motor on a stand like that cuz all he does make noise lol

Let he is without sin. When my Fiat was waiting on brake parts, it felt good to hear the engine going. I loved getting the revs as high as I felt safe with that old thing, just to know that it wasn't all for nothing

I sold it without a title because of poo poo with the state. It was all for nothing

While I think that R32 is probably the ideal looking Skyline, the fact the lights line up with the flare makes this acceptable stupidity.

Thank you! My brain could not parse what I was seeing in this picture. I almost thought that Ford of Australia had gotten some insane, obscure, licensed production deal and they hosed it up or something

That car is a sin and I somehow get uncanny valley feelings when I look at it, but I have to respect it

I dunno, I've lost any trust in any nav solution that isn't Carplay/AndroidAuto at this point. There's very little excuse for a new vehicle that costs as much as a Rivian to not come so equipped in 2023.

Having tried to use BMW, Toyota, Jeep, Subaru, Porsche, GM, and Nissan proprietary navigation/phone connectivity poo poo, you are 100% right.

It really does seem to be dependent on the model and year, I don't understand completely. Our 2022 Civic could start CC from a complete stop and would drive at any speed, at any distance, but our rented 2021(?) Accord would cancel if it went below 10mph

Man this was my childhood, going home late at night staring at all the green dash lights. No phone or electronics to distract from it. When I got old enough to drive that 900S I definitely did not appreciate what a cool car it was. Manual transmission and FWD that chirped the tires when you really booted it.

It suffered a sad death when my older sibling inherited it, took it in for service, didn't notice that the mechanic had forgotten to refill the oil, and drove it hundreds of miles until the engine blew up. :smith:

Honda hides it really well in press photos and real life, but the speedometer isn't back-lit like the rest of the gauges cluster. I don't know if it helps because it's next to a bright rear end screen full of distracting information, but they kind of maybe tried

I would love if my condo added like 3 of those for the community use. Sometimes you just need too many heavy items to carry them home, and it seems churlish to drive one of your four extremely not-efficient cars 400m to the grocery store.

If we're stuck in a car dominated society, community use electric cars wouldn't be the worst bandaid we could put on things

It’s a “crossover sedan”. It’s every bit as tall as a CUV, because it is, without the “U”. No it’s not as tall as a full-on SUV, but it’s taller than a sedan. Seating position is at least a foot higher than my Crown Victoria.
