    That's because Subaru will insist on making funny-shaped engines.

    mazdaspeed3 and the turbo lancer have scoops too

    The Lancer's is, I'm fairly sure, actually the exit of a duct in which they place the radiator and probably the intercooler as well. Don't know about the Mazda's.

    Fake edit: Actually the newest Lancer's does look like a scoop, hmmm

    This is what I want:

    The report says that Apple is currently negotiating a long-term deal with LG. The deal would allegedly have LG supplying displays for a 7.35-inch iPad from 2012 through 2016.

    Pssh.

    I love Subarus.

    I had an 88 Subaru XT6. 2.7 Flat 6 in a car the size of a Prelude? Heck yes!

    I would have bought another one instead of my Genesis, but the nearest dealer is like 20miles away, and they are douchebags, the next closest one is almost 30miles away. That is a long way to go for service, or to be towed if something breaks,

    So we get stiff once in a while. So we have a little fun. What’s wrong with that? This is a free country, isn’t it? I can take my panda any place I want to. And if I wanna buy it a drink, that’s my business.

    It's really a testament to God's creation how the kitten can lie down with the deer.

    Subaru dealers seem to be douchebags generally.

    My mum was looking at a Forester but the local dealership wanted full list for a nine-month old demonstrator in white.

    She ended up getting a six month old ex-fleet Forester with a hefty discount and free delivery from a dealership in Edinburgh.

    I used to hate the lancer, but ever since the X came out I hate it so much that I started to love the old, relatively understated Evos from the 90s.

    It's really tricky to make a decent looking hood scoop. The SRT4 is a great example of one that really didn't pull it off.

    I think the scoop on the mazdaspeed 3 is one of the least offensive looking about it but am still not a fan.

    just a marketing word for a high density display

    it's not the same from device to device because it depends on the size of the screen and the standard viewing distance or some shit

    The one I am talking about is also a BMW, Land Rover, Maserati, Porsche, Audi, and VW dealer.

    So yeah.

    Plus they layed off a friend of mine because of "the economy" and then hired someone else to take his place 3 months later. Also, they refused to replace my Beetle's convertible top under warranty when the back window starting falling out. Blamed it on me having coil overs on the car.

    So seriously, screw them.

    it's not the same from device to device because it depends on the size of the screen and the standard viewing distance or some shit

    It means the resolution is high enough that the human eye cannot discern individual pixels at the typical viewing distance, I think.

    So, uh, my medical leave ends in one week, after which I will be officially moved to administrative suspension, which basically means I will lose my job and not be paid until I can return to duty. My doctor is totally dragging his feet. I'm going to see him again tomorrow and hopefully he will have figured out how to fix everything.

    If it doesn't, though, I will be completely without income because the VA has screwed up something somehow and I have not been receiving my disability benefits for the last two months and they're telling me I have to go to a VA hospital which is bullshit because they should be able to take any doctor's evaluation and I'm not sure what the problem is exactly but hopefully they will stow their bullshit and fix it when I call them again later today.

    So worst case scenario, if my doctor doesn't do shit and the VA doesn't do shit, I will be bringing in no money, which means our only income will be my girlfriend's (very) part-time work and we're going to start eating into my savings which, I guess, we could stretch out to like a year if we shared bathwater and unplugged our computers and didn't pay her tuition.

    I am kinda with you on spoilers

    I tend to prefer deck lid style spoilers, or even better, ones that have been molded in to the trunk

    I do like them on hatchbacks, but they tend to be more understated than on sedans
