Sometimes it works, such as the RX-7 and Chrysler's K-car.

No, Youtube comments are not cancer.

They are far worse.

Every time I read Youtube comments, I want to bash my head in at the idiocy that those users display with every comment they make with their mouth. Rarely are Youtube comments ever civilized.

Facebook comments are a very close second.

Imgur is up there with that

Reddit seems pretty civilized

I think that's a car brand idea for Nissan.

More ppl buys BRZ, actually base BRZ offers more feature then FRS & is cheaper now..lol (used to be FRS is cheaper)

MisterSheep · 02-03-2016, 07:09 PM

I dont think prices will be going up.

This thread is turning hilarious!
There is a team at Toyota reading this right now and laughing their asses off.
The whole rest of the world says "Meh so what?" while the US car culture burns.
This sort of thing happens all the time. It is called "business".
How do you think poor Jeep guys feel? Their cars have been through 4 different companies over the years.
NOTHING changes except some badges, some document logos and the sign at the Dealerships (and hopefully some options if they don't make the 17s+ hideous).

OK back to worrying if you can get parts, planning your retirements on your rare collectors cars increased value and analyzing the declining sales with no real data to work with.

Come on bruh, your cheaply made fake-ass badges don't fly here.

Everyone knows that real Scion badges gets you all the real Instagram followerz.
