Buy or bye or A.I. yai yai? E.g., check out its rendering of the side vent, the WTF engine, and shifter from God-knows-what. Big thumbs down on such shite.

No, never, really, but on the other hand I have not been driving it that much lately due to travel and, before that, winter. I was alarmed at first because I never noticed anything like this before even though I’ve owned this 24 and a 22 before it for a total of 4 years now, but after...

Why? That would only hurt us as owners.

I used exactly that marker but the color is a bit too light, also doesn’t really “stick”. Maybe if my scrape were more minor, more of a scratch, it would have blended better.

Nope, finally got around to trying it, not quite the right color. Still looking: I’d like to think that some manufacturer must have had an exterior paint color similar to the bronze wheel color at some point.

What I did today is I let my BW wet fart onto the garage floor when I started it to move it a couple of feet in the garage today. It even left skid marks!

New zonks?

The new CT5 platform isn’t just being developed for North America but China, too, is my guess. Unless the models have diverged in recent years, I believe the Chinese get the same chassis but with pissy communist engines. This reduces the engineering and design cost per unit considerably...

After hooking it up you can route it nice and tidy like this and then close the hood

You can set Waze to send audio alerts. Also, at least for me, this is for when I’ve got a long night drive ahead, not spirited backroads driving, or when I need to get somewhere as quickly as possible on a freeway without getting a ticket.

ambient lighting is off, too, it’s almost funereal, but in a cool way

… glass half-full reply: legit little issue, sure, but at least we HAVE buttons, unlike so many other vehicles of all makes, models, and classes these days.

Speedo, minimalist fuel gauge and tach, current gear (yellow if rev match is on) in a very small font, currently relevant idiot lights (like headlamps “on”, and high beams on auto), is the sum of it, if I remember correctly. You also continue to see whatever you’ve configured on your heads-up...

Funny you should say that. I backed into a spot with a curb on the passenger side before visiting my sister. I noted the curb when I stepped out of my car and I thought: Don't forget to exit in a wide arc when you turn out to leave that spot. I visit my sister. I leave. I forget about the curb...

Scraped one of my tech bronze rims on a curb this morning and would like to touch it up. Anyone here ever order touch paint for them and if so, from where? Alternatively, anyone know the paint code or have their wheels off the car so they can see if, as googling suggests, the code is printed...

Scuffed one of my rims up on a curb this morning and would like to touch it up. Anyone here ever order touch paint for them and if so, from where? Alternatively, anyone here know the paint code or has the wheels off the car so they can take a peek at the rim to see if, as googling suggests, the...

It’s usually kept in our garage. Unfortunately, though, the garage is accessed via an alley that’s pretty low on the city’s snow clearing priority list. We only get two or three major snowstorms here most years, but when they do hit, getting in and out is much more an issue than the cold.

I thought this little-known feature was a gimmick, but found it relaxing to be able to turn down the lights to just the essentials during parts of a long and sometimes arduous winter drive back to Toronto from Quebec last night.

… and now, my red 24, after the same drive, parked in the same spot. Come to think of it, they’re even the same winter tires.
