    Ownership Verified: Insert "Beat" Pun Here

    - - - Updated - - - With Missouri's laws as they are, I can do whatever I want to it. That being said, though, I'm trying to get it up to and keep it in as mint condition as I can. ... and when something breaks, then I'll make it more fun. :mrgreen:

    Ownership Verified: Insert "Beat" Pun Here

    I have no idea, because that's a terrifying proposition for me right now, as I'm still learning RHD and collision insurance means fuck all with this car. :lol: Mine too: this car is second on my bucket list only to the 2G Viper GTS. It's funny you say that, too, because a friend of mine...

    Ownership Verified: Insert "Beat" Pun Here

    It was imported through Hi-Rev Motors; a friend of mine tagged me right when they posted it on their Facebook page, and I spent about 45 minutes talking on the phone with their Midwest dealers (I live in St. Louis). Once they got a US-ified title, I made a midnight run up to them and picked it...

    Ownership Verified: Insert "Beat" Pun Here

    Thanks! IMO it's one of the simplest (see: goodest) kei cars because it isn't F/I. It gets a really unique engine noise because they opted for individual throttle bodies on all the... you know, three cylinders. Sure, there are faster kei cars, but none of them really sound like this one. You...

    Ownership Verified: ZOOM! - My Mazda 2 Skyactiv

    I really, really, really wish they sold the DJ Mazda2 over in the US. I've put almost 100,000 miles on my DE and I absolutely love it and will drive it into the ground... and I want to replace it with a DJ.

    Ownership Verified: Insert "Beat" Pun Here

    Behold! Bask in the magnificent, tiny splendor of the third Honda Beat ever to roll on United States soil. For a size reference, it's smaller than a VW Mk1 Caddy. I'm more interested in what questions people have about it, rather than droning on and on about how great it is. Also, the...

    Is... is this a thread worth reviving? Because I'm totally playing iRacing now.

    2016 USA Presidential Elections

    To literally nobody's surprise. He's just there to play a part in the theater; it makes him more relevant which bolsters his Fox News credibility for a while, and he can provide a push for the other, actual viable candidates.

    "The Rab... wait, that's a Rabbit?"

    I've been told by a great many people to avoid the PD engines to make my life easier.

    "The Rab... wait, that's a Rabbit?"

    It is! I'm actually hoping it warms up a little again so I can burn enough diesel to figure out what the fuel economy is like now. And to be honest, it's more fun to drive than my Mazda2. I love the 2 dearly, but the Rabbit just has... I don't know, more character? It's like, I just figured...

    Table flip! If only I had known. :( I'm also going to a NASCAR race in Bristol instead of the Ringmeet this year (but next year!)... because those are comparable, right?

    "The Rab... wait, that's a Rabbit?"

    It keeps tripping me up, because some people refer to it as a Caddy, and I look at them like they're stupid. Then they look at me like I'm stupid. And if I'm honest, the biggest reason I pulled the trigger on it was because I was seeing non-running ones going for almost 50% more than what I...

    Ringmeet MMXV August 7th-9th 2015: Planning thread

    That's looking like what my round trip was going to be; it was $750 just one-way, and there was a layover in... some place for some amount of time. I kind of blacked out when I realized how expensive it was.

    Car Modifying, the DMCA, and You

    Yeah, this was the first I'd seen that the DMCA was getting roped into this clusterfuck. It's particularly interesting to me that portions of it were crafted specifically around people going there's no waaaay that anyone could use this to apply to automobiles. And yet, here we are.

    "The Rab... wait, that's a Rabbit?"

    Penn. We're planning (and I've been told and read) that the front clip swap would be a direct weld-on. It's going to be a frunk anyway once the engine swap (mercifully*) takes place, so I'm not particularly worried. * I rag on it, but at 247,000 miles, the thing is mechanically sound...
