Re: Let's see your knives!

Used to carry several daily while I was in the military; but gotten out of the habit lately... For a while I was traveling heavily, so I pretty much gave up on an EDC from that, and haven't gotten back into it yet. I do keep a Leatherman Wave in my car, and a small Swiss army I carry still; but it i...

Re: What is the most powerful car you have driven?

The most powerful I've owned was my 2008 R32. 250HP stock; mine had approximately 275.

Most powerful I've driven was a friends' Turbocharged R32: 650hp/650tq.

Insane :shock:

My first was a 4 speed Rabbit Diesel; but I drove numerous 3 speed column shifters before graduating to a 5 speed... :mrgreen: :lol:

Re: Anyone here have a dash-cam?

On most models I've seen; you can turn GPS tracking off if you are one who tends to consider speed limits to be flexible... :mrgreen:

Re: Anyone here have a dash-cam?

A dash-cam? As in one that is permanently installed into the car with a DVR in the trunk? No need for 1990s tech :wink: Modern Dash cams are window or dashboard mounted; solid state, and have built in looping software so they don't waste their hard drive space or require you to constantly wipe them...

Re: The VW GTD, Coming to the US in 2016?

I was expecting 300 horsepressures to get to 60 a little quicker than that. It should have; whoever drove it for that test doesn't know what they are doing. :lol: Or maybe it just couldn't get traction due to all seasons or something, I dunno. The stock MK6 GTI (200 HP) has already been tested at 5...

Re: Manual Transmission Car of the Year

I would agree on the Golf R; it is a similar enthusiast car as the BRZ/FR-S is and is offered in manual only for the US market. VW did this in accord with enthusiast input; as they brought the previous model in DSG only. So I second the nomination for the Golf R for 2013 As for the Toyobaru; it is o...
