Will the first gen CR-V be a future classic? I'm kinda regretting selling mine a couple years back. It was mint and only had about 70K on it.

It reminds me of an early volvo, but japanese. Boxy, reliable, good.

I have a 01 with 150k miles in very good condition that I don't drive much any more now that it is replaced by my wife's RX350.

I am planning on keeping it for dump runs and winter driving (my DD is RWD). I'm wondering if I should do a little lift on it, or do something like GS-R head and make a little punk out of it.

Good get?

Found this car on Japan-Partner

Costs a total of $3,603 to ship to my port. I absolutely love this color, it being a stick shift just makes it even more tempting.

Should I bite the bullet on my next payday?

I just want to talk about cars with people who aren't here to talk out of their ass and blindly fanboy/hateboner everything, jesus christ. I can't believe anybody here is actually old enough to own a car. The Honda kiddies who think their cars are anything but econoboxes are easily the worst on both of these fronts.

why yall mothefuckers keep trying to sell me a cadillac every time i go in for warranty work on my fucking sonic
>>
>>16683802
idk

maybe the sales manager put a spiff on cadillacs at that specific dealer

keep in mind 80% of salesman are failures in everything else and get by on persitence.

personally I don't bother people in service unless they seek me out, waste of my time. you can tell when someone needs/wants a new car and is ready/willing/able

25 year import rule.

Also, nobody wants a luxury pickup truck, because it's an oxymoron.

New cars in the US require extensive US only crash tests, in addition to a few other US only requirements.

Mercedes realizes Americans only like body on frame trucks, so its not worth it to try to sell this/damage their brand image.

Is sending more than 50% of the torque to the rear wheels even possible what a transeverse AWD? Could what's described in this scene be possibly without having to mount the engine longitudinally? I'd ask google but I feel like this is too specific to get any kind of answer for

>>16681107

I can't remember exactly what years it was, but I think 2004/2005 STI's were already a 35/65 split, so i'd assume the show is just referencing some part swapping from a different model.
>>
>>16681171
They were longitudinal with a centre differential. The shaft(s) to the rear wheels weren't daisychained to the front transaxle which is my understanding of how AWD works connected to a transverse mounted engine

Suzuki did it on the SX4. In Auto mode, it could send more than 50% of power to the rear wheels, as much as 90% IIRC. Someone please correct me if I'm wrong.

>>16681171
But Subarus use a longitudinal AWD system
