@bradyb: I love the shamelessness of the excessive lifestyle.
They screwed this up royally. Subaru Legend? Were they high? Clearly, that's a Honda Legend, and they never re-badged it in Japan to a Subaru

@hatakeboy: We could do what you said but it would:
1) increase costs as diesel becomes more difficult to implement under tighter emissions requirements in North America 2) save weight (but lower MPG - CR-Z still gets better fuel economy than VW diesels do right now) 3) increase pollution because CR-Z meets Tier-2 Bin2 emission standards, while diesels in North America are Bin 5 (about 50% more pollutants out of the tailpipe) 4)CR-Z is cheaper than prius and does not come in beige.

You can ask for diesel all you want, but I sure hope they don't bring it here. Direct injection gas is getting close to diesel efficiency, there is no reason to introduce diesel emissions complexity to the equation. Proof - Look at Hyundai's new Sonata, and Sonata turbo - its getting almost diesel-like efficiency. in 5-10 years, diesel cars will be dead, even in Europe.
@PotbellyJoe - As seen on I-287: I think Porsche designers spend 95% of their time on the golf course.
I'm looking forward to more frequent updates on HFL!
@Motor_Yakuza: I've driven a Miata, and there is no comparison to the connection you have with a bike, not to mention the world around you. The smaller the bike, the closer you get to reality. A Miata is a barge compared to a 600cc sport bike, and a 600cc sport bike is a dump truck compared to a 125cc sport bike.
this is a tarted up version of a tarted up version. Two tarts don't make a right...but I guess they could make a small pie.
It's like top gear in printed format! I just need to imagine a British (or Hungarian?) accent while reading this.
Wait, your complaint about the Fit is that it's too utilitarian? This is a complaint factor now? I sat in a Fiesta at the auto show, and it's cramped compared to the Fit. There is far less cargo room in a Fiesta than a Fit. One can also sit in the back of a Fit without the head touching to roof. So far, the only thing Fiesta has over Fit is that it's nimbler and more sporty driving (And the Fit is already quite good, it's just that Fiesta is better, from the reviews that I read)

@Tenacious_ADG: I never could tell if Mario or Luigi had gell because NES was too pixalated. Plus they wore hats. :)
@Tenacious_ADG: The spray on tan I agree with you. But hair gel? I thought that was just part of your daily intake like vitamin C and B12.
It's my dream too. :(
@nightwatch: In the 21st century, you access in-car media through the stereo system, not by controlling the media itself. :) I'm just being silly, but, with Ford SYNC (and other systems) when you plug an iPOD into your car, the songs show up on the navi screen or radio display, and you can select music in this way.
I like that they all have to wear glasses for protection - because digging in sand is so dangerous. I don't know how I got out of a sandbox with my sight.
There will always be criminally distracted vehicle operators. You can’t prevent something like this from happening again by just charging this one guy. If you let people split lanes, the next time it happens (WHEN, not IF), the accident could be less severe. That is the main issue here. Much like the war on drugs – you’re not going to solve it by jailing delers – you’re just increasing available market for another dealer. You can fix drug issues by working with the users / potential users – who are the dealers going to sell to if nobody wants what they have?
Koenig means "king"...and now I figured out the "egg" part. It's King Egg - the guy with the biggest head like an egg.
my name says it all...
Bugatti should just charge $1.9M for the car, and throw in 4 years free service. That way custie doesn't see the big bills, and Bugatti makes more money.
It's Brno, Czech Republic..close to Austria...but still.
