So you have a place to hold on to keep your self upright because the chairs are rubbish and don't have any side grip, thus forcing you to one hand it.

>would getting an Aprilia RS250 as my sole bike be stupid?

I don't ride much (I use to own a few bikes) and I like tinkering on bikes in general. Plus the fact that is a 2 stroke is awesome. I am a USfag by the way.

RS250 has like a 220km top speed, that's the joy of 2 strokes they scream to move. What's not to like about aprilia I had a rs125 and it was great.

Ford Performance has taken the acclaimed Fiesta ST compact hot hatch and made it even hotter.

The new Ford Fiesta ST200, which debuts this year as Ford celebrates the 40-year anniversary of Fiesta, is the most powerful production Fiesta ever. Compared with the acclaimed Fiesta ST, the new Fiesta ST200 produces 10 per cent more power and 20 per cent more torque with 200 PS and 290 Nm from a specially calibrated 1.6-litre EcoBoost petrol engine.

Which compact sedan packs the most features/options at under $18k in the states?

I've been looking at the Rio, Elantra, Corolla, Sonic.

I want comfort in my seating with good features. Not looking for a powerhouse car just a good old A - B with good MPG.

Likely the Sonic or the Rio. Personally, I'd go with the Sonic. 18k is about the starting price for a very nicely equipped Sonic LTZ Turbo.

Sonic has a better interior and package all around. Rio's these days are just overpriced for what you get inside and mpg/engine power.

sonic/elantra > rio/corolla

scion im could be looked into but the cvt + low horses and still not insane mpg deters me. the interior is great though.

civic cvt is another choice if you're interested in cvt.

None. Spend your 18k on a more interesting car. Or shut up and buy a civic or <5k.

Ok guys. Looking for a new compact sedan. Right now it's between the 2017 Hyundai Elantra and the 2016 Mazda 3. I'll be getting the base models on either, with automatic transmission (I don't live in an area when owning a manual is practical/enjoyable). What do you guys think? I'm not looking to be persuaded into buying a shitbox, so stay on topic please

So /o/, I done fucked up. I was being dumb with my "new" car and accidentally shifted into 2nd instead of 4th at 75mph, and my car broke down. It wont start, and the transmission seems fine. My dad thinks that it could be a bent valve. What else could it possibly be?
My dad and I are taking a look at it over the next few days, and I really dont know what to expect...
Pic related, my car.

First off, how?

There is no fucking way your clutch would let you take 2nd at 75 mph, and you would burn it so bad that your first instinct would be to push your clutch back in.

If this really happened your are the most retarded person to drive a stick.
