Can anyone recall a company doing this before? Seems odd at the very least. Like I get the rears are floating calipers and not as nice. But at least Mazda gives you a little bit of paint on the rears to go with your upgraded fronts. Or you know, because its so expensive, they could've upgraded the brakes in the back too.
*IDK what the price is, but it'll be a lot.

RE: Minimum Wage
@glemon I saw this thread yesterday about Roger Marshall, Kansas senator. His argument for not raising it, is that he paid for college off minimum wage. These comments stuck out:
"When he graduated from Kansas State University, tuition was $898/year. It is now $10,000/year. The minimum wage then was $3.35. It's now $7.25"
"Math time
$898/$3.35 = 268 hours
$10,000/$7.25 = 1379 hours
$10,000/268 hours = $37 per hour
Oh yeah its all coming together... minimum wage is a problem. but hyper inflation for Colleges is also the problem." -
Unnecessary car shopping: Cayman test drive edition
Base model but with the extended leather interior and it was upsettingly good. I thought the LC500 was super good but now there’s no clear better car. I’ve never felt turbo lag that bad before but on boost it was quick and just felt right. Which makes sense because it’s a bigger, better Miata. I don’t know what I want now, but that’s okay because I’m not buying anytime soon.

RE: Quick test drive of a Chevy SS
@limitedtimeonly That dark green C7 makes me want to fly the stars and stripes and do something financially dumb.
*also applies to Camaros and dark green / purple challengers -
RE: Fun story - Land Cruiser inflation
@hammerheadfistpunch Sad truth is cars have matched inflation, but wages haven't.

RE: DOTS: Just in from Aruba Edition
@whoistheleader The one your brother saw? Probably bus style, funnel in from the front. The ones here you just hop on in.

RE: IS500: Future Classic? Instant Classic?
@wbizarre Really depends if they sell 5k or 50k. I hope the sell enough to make the V8 not special anymore so the Fs/LCs drop in price.
@facw if the sell enough with 470hp the rear ends will go away from you faster

RE: Texas Has Cured Covid
@dipodomysdeserti Do you sneeze in other people's mouth when you're sick? Thats not the "only" way it spreads so why not?
FWIW going forward, if im sick and gotta goto CVS, I think I'll be putting a mask on. Seems like an easy thing to do that might keep others from getting whatever I have.

RE: Uggh... Jalopnik
@musashi66 IMHO you're being a bit crude.
She likes her truck, but also understands they're less safe. Its a blog piece, not a call for a truck ban.
Its like factory farming, we know its not good, but its cheap and tastes good. -
RE: Aw yiss, the AMG 73 moniker returns!
@carbon-fiber-sasquatch This is just so rich people can have fast cars and get around low emission restrictions in London right? If its like the Panamera Turbo S E-hybrid, it won't be faster, but it'll cost a lot more.

RE: Texas Has Cured Covid
@dipodomysdeserti I thought they wore them when the wear-er was sick. You know, to be nice and not get others sick.

RE: J(VS)LR: $70K Brit SUV match-up
@wbizarre out of the two, defender. But I’d have to make myself do more off-road adventures and if that’s the case, might as well go all out.
