The “Announcement Package 1″, of tinted window and power steering was $139 and “Announcement Package 2″ of a front sway bar, steel belted radial tires and power front disc brakes was $203.45. So in order to get your Pacer up to scratch you had to part with the best part of $1,300, taking the price up to about $4,600.

Since 2003, Alpinas have been put together on specialproduction lines at BMW’s Munich, Dingolfing and Regensburg plants in Germany and its Spartanburg factory in the US, with every model being sent to Alpina’s headquarters in Buchloe for the finishing touches to be applied. Around 250 employees work at the Buchloe HQ where Alpina has been based since 1970 and it is from there that the Alpina components are shipped to the BMW assembly lines. It is at Buchloe, too,that modelling and prototyping are carried out, engine and gearbox upgrades are designed, specialised parts are made and the in house saddlery workshop produces the cars’ superb hand stitched interiors usingflawless Lavalina leathers.

We also rented an SUV for the trip, and will be spending a fair amount of time in the car, driving at least several times per day. The cheapest SUV we could get was a BMW X3 (I’m kind of excited about this!). The X5 was also an option, but I didn’t think we needed the extra space though now I’m second guessing that. Will the Sureride fit RF (rear facing) in the X3? I’m very opposed to FF him yet, even temporarily. He is still RF (rear facing) at home in an Advocate G3 in my car and a Marathon G3 in DH’s. The Sureride was purchased specifically for travel after reading other posts on this board. I didn’t want to mess with noodles for a good install with our Scenera back up seat, though I have gotten good at the noodle less install of the Scenera since then. Thoughts?

For a long time people have put professionals on a pedestal based on nothing more that a title and some credentials. Neither says anything about the kind of person they are. If a professional said a thing was thus and so, it was law and people have operated on professional opinions often to their great determent. Further it is impossible to work with someone else when you have them elevated to some lofty, out of reach position. It makes communicating with them extremely awkward and uncomfortable if not impossible. People who are on pedestals are very hard to get hold of.

They probably tweak the pricing after the tax rebate is reduced, but it take time and it probably won be as straight forward as (all prices $1000). So you be stuck in a waiting game after that. If you keep your eyes out between July December you probably be able to recoup most of the tax rebate that you missed, but it ridiculous that you have to even consider that.

Wow, was the car undriveable when you got the drivetrain error? Just took possession of the i3 today, first thing I noticed was gas tank cover stuck, though openable with green latch, needless to say noone at the Carvana knew how that worked. So far I have driven it to drain the battery enough to kick the Rex in emission mode. It sounded a bit louder than another Rex engine on a i3 I had test drove before. Other than that it drives smooth, handling the nation capitol fresh pot holes and uneven roads pretty well. HK sounds is a bit tiny but bass is deep and accurate, my kids fit in the back.

Then get an EVSE. They not expensive. A good one with WiFi for remote monitoring is $500. The electrician work should be another $500 or less. (I paid $200 for a used EVSE that doesn have WiFi, and because I was installing my EVSE immediately outside and below my breaker box, the electrician fee to install the outlet was only $250.) Yes, you can use the included 120V cable, but it isn meant for every day use.

Have you ever done multiclass racing before?If you haven I heavily recommend racing in GT3 before going GTE. It sounds like you own the Ferrari GT3, so you done so GT3 racing but only in the Ferrari challenge series. IMSA, in either GTE or GT3, is a completely different beast.If you do a season in the GT3s first, you will gain skills needed to drive the GTE cars later.

Then, after following the instructions from the manual, you press the button for the garage door to go up… and nothing happens. Did you miss a step? Read on to learn about what most instruction manuals leave out: the step of programming the car/truck/van to the garage door machine itself.

I mean following your reasoning a couple of years ago I could have said my “attainable dream car” was a piece of shit 1999 four cylinder Accord, because I only had like $1000 to spend on a car and I wanted a station wagon and it was all I could afford. Do you think it would be cool if I made a post gushing about my “attainable dream car” in the title without specifying what it was, then go on to talk about this shitheap no one cares about?

The media would have you believe Tesla is in trouble. The reality is the situation is dire for other car manufactures. They are years behind, they are struggling to get batteries and the batteries they get are sub par. They don have the numbers to train a neuronet the way Tesla can. Tesla has created a drop in sales for most auto makers many 10% loss and growing. Service centers and charging are growing by the day and the competitions charging options will leave customers stranded.

First, press the “learn” button on the back of your garage door opener mounted on the ceiling. (The learn button, located on the back of your machine, will be square if using a Liftmaster machine. Craftsman, Liftmaster, Chamberlain are all the same. Their learn buttons are square and usually yellow, red/orange, or purple. If using a Genie, the button says “learn button.”) The single press of this button should be brief and firm. Do not hold this button down. If you do, it erases all of the programming in the machine and you’ll have to re program all the remote controls that you have, and that’s not a fun process.

I think that it also a bargain on the used market, because if you to to subreddits like /r/frugal everyone just blindly parrots “buy a Honda or Toyota.” Which means that on the used market, you artificially paying more because of the fierce competition. I happily buy a Fusion or a Mazda6. In fact, 3 years ago, I almost listened to the advice. I went and test drove the 1 size smaller vehicles. The Civic was bleh. The Corolla was double bleh. I strongly considered the Focus, but would have had to step back to a 2005 2010 to avoid the Focus PowerShift transmission. So I decided on a Mazda3 instead.

Hi! We just had our second baby this week and have unfortunately discovered that when our Chico keyfit 30 (behind passenger side for our newborn ) and FF Graco headwise (behind driver for 3 year old) are installed (putting any of these seats in the middle is impossible, unfortunately, both installed with latch) an adult passenger cannot fit in the middle of both our 08 Honda Civic and 06 BMW X3. We suspected that this would be the case with the civic, but very surprised with the X3 is of course a bigger car and which we use most often and take on longer trips.

2 weeks ago I figure out it just a bad earth causing the slow crank and low voltage, so I fix that and it starts and runs mint. After about 15 minutes of driving the accessory pulley that been intermittently noisy completely shits the bed and starts screeching like a banshee. I don have time to fix it so I give up until next weekend.

There is also the IMSA Weathertech Sportscar Championship, which features GT3 (think GTE but slightly slower and more), GTE (known over there as GTLM), LMP2, and a category called DPi, which features modified LMP2s with new manufacturer aerodynamics and engines. Current DPi include Cadillac, Mazda, Acura/Honda and Nissan. ELMS features LMP2, LMP3 (smaller LMP2 with a very powerful Nissan V8) and GTE, while AsLMS features LMP2, LMP3, and a mix of GT3, GT4 (an entry level category) and spec cup racers (Porsche Cup being the most popular of these). Both these series primarily compete in 4 hour long events, however starting in their upcoming season, AsLMS will contest a 6 hour race at Australia The Bend Motorsport Park. ELMS doesn race again until Barcelona in July, while AsLMS doesn begin their season until a 4h race at Shanghai in November.

I’d like to hear some ideas from other Hubbers. Given those criteria (15+ years old, good condition, under $20,000), what vehicle would you buy and why?Ross Kposted 8 years agoI would recommend a Mercedes E Class from 90 94. These cars were over engineered and built like tanks. Nothing like Benz’s of today.

This question depends on the type of car enthusiast. I am a car enthusiast who is not interested in hybrids, but I do admire the advances in science and technology that these cars have. In other words I appreciate these cars. It is a fact that in the next fifty to one hundred years many cars will be dependent on the technologies of these hybrid models.

You will have a CPO warranty for a while but things seem to start going very wrong after the first 3 4 years. My car was often at the dealer for things such as faulty electronics, leaks, broken sway bars. The repairs only costed me time but it would been expensive after the CPO warranty expires.

Throughout this whole process I kept thinking: I could walk into any BMW, Porsche, Toyota, whatever dealership with this pre approved loan and leave with a new car in less than 60 minutes most likely. If it took longer, it only be because they getting me a bigger discount or getting it delivered from another store.

I got caught up in line at Cub today cuz the boy behind the counter didn’t know how to process WIC. One lady got so annoyed at me for holding up the line, she scoffed and went to the customer service desk three feet away and got snippy with the lady there. I felt terrible, and it must’ve shown on my face because the next people in line smiled at me and said they understood, they’d been in my shoes and they know how hard times are now. They were a nice older couple, the woman even gave me a small hug and told me to keep doing everything I could for my beautiful son, because that is all a mother can be expected to do. I bawled, and Mar just smiled at her.

So the best advice I can give you is to just keep going, even if you think you reached your limit you do it a tiny bit better each lap.First, get comfortable with the car, do some fast laps followed by some laps, where you try to drift the car a bit and take corners completely different like you used to.

This is not to say other card games can’t be good, or can’t do fine on twitch, or that you personally have a hard time watching Artifact, or whatever. It’s just that these core fundamental bits of Hearthstone were executed brilliantly from day 1, and it’s a big reason why Hearthstone has been so popular on Twitch for so long (among other benefits).

“Emphasising driver orientation geometry means we have clustered the instruments to enhance focus. BMWs are for people who appreciate the feel of a car on the road, the whole actual motoring experience. With this new BMW Concept 8 Series the joy of driving is first and foremost.”Data and surveys inform what we want from our cars now, but they cannot shape and create. Starke’s team studies other designers from outside the automotive world. “Artists are more avant garde,” she thinks, “they see and feel things before others do. I have always been fascinated by both art and design, and my team’s work here brings those two professions together.”

Bovensiepen junior says the typical Alpina buyer is a highly successful entrepreneur who often covers a high annual mileage (30,000 or more per year is usual) anddemands a level of exclusivity beyond the personalisation offered by top luxury marques. “If youlook back 20 years, we sold fewer than half as manycars as we do today,” he explains. “Production hasgradually increased because our portfolio of models is much wider than it used to be in the past, for example, we didn’t offer an SUV or any diesel engines but it’s also because more people are looking for something special. That said, we still make fewer thanhalf the number of cars that Rolls Royce does. Wehavea verypersonal connection with all our customers andwe want to maintain that.

Oh, and of course, the best bit, you get to build it yourself! If that’s not something you’ve done before, fear not, most of these cars can be built relatively easily, and there is plenty of help out there on forums. The Factory five forums are very very impressive, so are the GT40 ones.

Quite frankly, I don’t understand it either. But nevertheless, McLaren’s direct rival to the 458 has shown the world that they can still churn out a serious machine for the race connoisseur who’s not really interested in ‘posing’ or flashing a brand name but prefers what can possibly be technically sound. The MP4 12C is McLaren’s 2nd road car after the McLaren F1 (the supercar which defined the 1990s) and the SLR (jointly built with Mercedes) so they had to ensure they gave it their best when releasing the usually difficult ‘third album’.

You will save money using the powder and your baby won’t know the difference!1Motorcycles, Sports Bikes RidingLowering Your Kawasaki ZX 14 3 months agoI bought my 2009 ZX 14 Special Edition with no intent to modify or change anything.
