    Last thing I really played online was Payday 2, my wife and I actually really enjoyed it. Working as a team with a few others.

    I got the last laugh because I had insurance on the car, and the asshole who blew it up had to pay the deductible!

    Newer automatics are amazing! To the point that I could live with it in the right car. But, for pure driving enjoyment, give me a stick!

    5-speed 5-lug Tacos also seem to be more desirable than their automatic counterparts...

    Have you driven a paddle shifted C7? They're nucking futs

    I'd say put the manual in the underpowered car like the GT86 and have a blast. For the high powered stuff like Corvettes Ferraris etc, the automatic/paddle shifters are the way to go

    Boo!

    Jk, I know they're insanely fast. But, it seems like it would be weird without any exhaust note. I feel like the sound is part of the experience.

    I believe it was BMW that played engine sounds through the stereo system because the engine was so quiet...

    Tesla's are also built like Chrysler's. Extremely poor fitment and quality.

    Supposedly that's getting better, but still...

    I have the actual quote in my wallet downstairs, but like literally right at. I think I may be able to talk my way into it for just under. It's been on the lot since November. So I can use that as leverage. That and the fact that I just bought the Tacoma there as well.

    I was VERY impressed with the way the stock exhaust sounds. Not that if I had one it would stay stock long. We'd be selling the Sable (our "spare" car) and all the proceeds from that would be going to a catless downpipe, turbo inlet pipe (because you can get one with meth ports already built in), methanol injection and a MHD flash tuning setup. Aim for about 480WHP on the stock turbo and then upgrade to Pure Stage 2 turbo at some point down the line and aim for 600-650RWHP depending if they have a decent port injection setup for them eventually.

    I won’t be buying one for a while still. I’m content with my yotas and they would stay around for quite some time
