Used car shopping is such a hassle. Too many people want too much money for vehicles in poor condition. Also, too few people drive manuals.
What are you looking for?
Econobox that's reasonably fun to drive. Needs to be able to fit a bike or a few snowboards. Being easy to work on is also a plus. Almost bought a 2002 Protege 2.0ES, have also looked at a 3dr Saturn Astra, Mazda 3s and others. The thing is I'm Canadian, so finding something decent <$8k is proving to be a hassle.
Unbelievable if true. Americans truly ARE incapable of making a good looking interior. Why they keep sticking in squared boxes of shit into each and every sports car will be a mystery to me.
I'm genuinely hoping that is some sort of template or early design. For the love of God. It's the top bit of that stack that kills it all too...that screen is about the size of a 3 year old BlackBerry screen.
I doubt the center stack would change between now and then. Though it's almost certainly the base one. Might look better with a larger screen in place of the, well, Atari Lynx there at the top.
Americans can make a good looking interior...when it occurs to them to do so. They've made good strides recently, but they seem to completely not bother in this class of car.
Why do you need a button for every single digit? And I thought ABC DEF lettering on number keys was dead. Ugh. At least the knobs are massive and it doesn't use that terrible touch-button crap from other Ford cars.
Whatever, if this is the sacrifice we need to make for independent rear suspension, so be it.

Counted over 40 buttons on the dash of my cousin's horrible Escape. Just in the center stack. Radio + HVAC + a couple misc. wtf, seriously.

Needs a drop bad though. Gonna install matte black grilles next week after my business trip!
Also, here are latest pics of my friend's FR-S. Looking pretty nice IMO!
I believe he is being sponsored by Seibon, KW and Hankok.

That looks fine, but why does it need a drop? It seems like a bad trend these days that everyone on forums say 'needs a drop' whenever people post pics of their new cars.

Is that purple Plasti-Dip?
I've been really obsessing on the Tesla Model S-- and I'm back and forth whether to place a reserve for one. Ive seen pictures of the dashboard-- and its the sleekest and techno savy dashboard I've ever seen-- and surprisingly its smallest battery model is only a few thousand more than the Infiniti M- which has been a disappointment. Anyone here have a chance to drive it (probably california gaffers) and thoughts?
And in terms of range-- I commute less than 10 miles back and forth to work and there is an electric car charging parking spot, which has been unoccupied.
Go for it, but be warned that the options add up quickly. You probably should at least add the tech package ($3,750), audio package ($950), paint armor ($950), parcel shelf ($250) and the sunroof ($1,500). Leather is an additional $1,500, as is the in-law seats.
Here's the configurator so you can build your own.

My friend did that to his 335i Sedan. It's comical.
But he did a clean job, so now him and his buddy are doing fairly professional quality work on other cars.
is it wrong to not dislike this?
Leather is mandatory on the Performance model, as is the air suspension and 85 kWh battery rated by the EPA for 265 miles of range.Boo to leather! Save the cash!
Would anyone have any thoughts or recommendations on good sports-car in the 30k dollar range? Dunno' when I plan on buying, but I've been considering...
Thought about the 370Z, the FR-S, Mustang GT... I just don't know. It'd be nice to have something with a bit of power, but not break the bank.

seriously why does this have to be a camaro. If these numbers turn out to be real that is a STEAL for the price

Jalopnik said:To put this into perspective, it is faster at Virginia International Raceway than a 2009 Audi R8 V10 and a 2011 Cadillac CTS-V. It is only 0.3 seconds off the 662-hp 2013 Shelby Mustang GT500. Oh, and GM claims it's 4.5 seconds faster than the Phelps-like Boss 302 Laguna Seca.
What? HOW?
Yeah. From the article, it sounds like both the 1SS and 2SS can be ordered with it. Depending on price increases for the 2013 models, a 1SS 1LE should be right around $37k and a 2SS 1LE should be right around $40k.yeah and for under $40k...nuts.

Guys, this is the current center stack from an F150. I quoted it with the mustang one for comparison.
So unless you think ford plans on using the same center console as the current gen f150 for the next mustang, I would relax about the spy pic.
