Probably the same reason they stuck the timing chain at the back of the engine.
They thought it would never need to be serviced and figured they could get away with it.

Cause it cheap just like Audi Xd

Unless you're driving a <70s car why would you want it?
But if you're that desperate you could just use 100LL AVGas, most recip planes still use leaded gasoline.

Anyone else like to get cucked by their car? Just by having somebody else drive your car, you sitting in the passenger seat, and you just experience your car in another way that you rarely experience.

I let my dumb little high school brother borrow my BMW to impress his dumb little high school date and he got drunk and crashed it. I have full coverage, but will my insurance even take care of the damage, and if so is there a way to do it with out getting him in trouble? Of course I know there need to be consequences for his actions, but I just don't have it in me to let him get arrested :/
Pic isn't my car

Lul, you fucked up. You're going to need to file a claim, and unless you want to get fucked by the insurance company, you'll need to put him at fault. I hope you've got him rated on your car, otherwise you're just plain screwed.

Intake tube that isnt important
Spark plug valley cover. Not too important.
Battery.
Otherwise seems ok at a glance
I want to take a 2014 Ford Focus ST from California to Japan with me. It's a base model and hasn't been modified in any way. Assuming I have the money, what needs to happen to make an American car street legal in Japan

Base models are better. It's kinda like the ST3, just without the dumb shit.

I know its going to have to pass shaken, although I don't have a list of the inspection points for that.
Its under 2.0 liter, so it should qualify for a 500Y plate.
But I know I'm missing things. Has anyone ever taken something to japan?

Why can't they just offer the TTS engine and front bumper on the TT Roadster as a $2K "S-Line" package? And why can't I order one with a manual?

You are all pathetic.
Feels good being successful and able to afford the best roadster on earth, the Z3.
