    My neighbour has a tuned WRX STi, he runs it on 94 octane and all that stuff. IIRC with his mods it's 400 hp, and it's wickedly loud.

    I don't even mind, because I love the sound of a Boxer engine.

            I guess at some point even the most oblivious people understand where they have no taste and can't be trolled on it.

                I like the side and back of this vehicle, but not so much the front end.

                Interior is stylish, but not very modern (exception steering wheel has all the chops).
                We're sorry, the voices in my head are not available at this time. Please try back again soon.

                  Front end is indeed very polarizing. I love it and suspect it'll grow on a lot of people as they see more of them (and it's making its way across all Lexus vehicles now so it'll be a bit more common).

                  Not sure what you mean by "not very modern". What does modern look like?

                    Man, I'm not the one who blew like 50+ grand on a butt-ugly car. And you're not gonna win with an argument that goes like "the accord is ugly and for soccer moms"

                      I remember early adopters making the same comment about the Aztek in 2000.

                        Yeah they do.

                        I congratulate Asher (or anyone) if they are excited about getting something.

                        But personally, I don't get excited about cars anymore. It was a phase... and I grew out of it. Cars are a pretty indefensible purchase. It's money down the toilet. And 5-10 years later, you either have nothing to show for it... or are stuck driving a 5-10 year old car.

                        and driving a luxury car brand, no matter the brand, just makes you a douche

                          The Aztek was universally called ugly. Even the people who bought it did so because they got deals.

                          • One of my neighbors had an Aztek (Aztec, but with a K... LOL THATS SO COOL... K INSTEAD OF C)... it was such a stupid vehicle.

                              There's no argument here - just different tastes.

                              No vehicle holds their value as well as, or is as reliable as a Lexus. I keep my cars ten years.

                              I did test drive the 2014 Accord (Sedan & Coupe), and it's just not my cup of tea.

                              50 grand isn't a lot of money, especially if keeping a car ten years.

                              The RAV4 was 40 grand, and I don't like it NEARLY as much. Similar story for the Accord - I could save 15K by getting an Accord, sure. But it's just boring. In every way. It's a practical car, to be sure, but it's not fun. I like fun.

                              I know this seems like a lot of money to you, but it's really not.

                                Look at the OP of this thread.

                                HC was "very excited" to get a used Accord, then tries to take people down a notch for getting excited to get a sporty luxury car brand new.

                                It's a textbook defense mechanism against jealousy.
