  1. My Type R Christmas Eve-Eve Test Drive (Long read)

    Those new SSs are handsome cars and the LT1 is a GREAT power plant. I see a blue SS w/black wheels around here often and always throw it an admiring glance. Since you’ve got a DD and don’t have to manage summer/winter wheels, go for it!
  2. My Type R Christmas Eve-Eve Test Drive (Long read)

    Correct. They’re a different kind of scum in matching polos than domestic dealers. I’ve owned a number of Hondas over the years that we’re utilitarian and not sig-worthy, but I am a fan boy. The best deal I ever extracted from a Honda dealer was when they couldn't give away the EP Si. I snagged...
  3. My Type R Christmas Eve-Eve Test Drive (Long read)

    OP, congrats on the incoming car! Sounds like you’ve thought this through very thoroughly and made the right decision for YOU which is the only thing that really matters. I also think you’re still in love with that Stook and couldn’t bear to part with it which is understandable. I owned a...

    oooof. sucks she feels that way, but here's a joke to cheer everyone up. Q: why do most men die before their wives do? A: Because they can! :D
  5. ADM down to $4k at end of August 2017

    Of course I had both dealers I visited give me that horseshit. I pointed out the window to my Polestar and said, "THAT is a limited production vehicle. There were 147 brought into the states in 2016 and it's the last of the 3.0L inline sixes. It's one of 287 V60s across '15 and '16. Have you...
  6. 5k over MSRP

    If you have the disposable income and will pay the ADM up front in cash, sure, but don't finance that $5K as part of your deal.
  7. Hi, there! Lurker with a question for you all ...

    Thanks! That is EXACTLY what I wanted to hear. The shift mechanism on the Si was pretty nice in and of itself. Way easier than then the bolt-action rifle-like Barton shifter installed in my Challenger. I mean, it serves a purpose of incredibly-positive actuation 1-2-3-4, but it's a bear grabbing...
  8. Hi, there! Lurker with a question for you all ...

    So, I've known about the CTR for a long while now and have purposely ignored as much news as I could so that I didn't overhype it, but I've let myself down over the last week visiting two local dealers to eyeball these gorgeous little cars. I currently have a '16 V60 Polestar and a '16 SRT 392...
