Well that's no good. I'd call foul.

When I registered the Lotus and had it "verified" at DMV, the same people where doing the verifications as road tests. I don't think any of them I saw could get into the Lotus, much less out. I think we will go with the Honda. |

My youngest took his driver's test in my FR-S. It was either that or the Suburban. Since he had practiced most of his driving in the Suburban (including parallel parking), the FR-S was a piece of cake.
Can't believe they still make folks parallel park in the test, I don't think I've parallel parked a car in 15 years. Still I suppose it shows some level of skill given how basic driving tests are any more, at least in the areas where I've lived.

It's ok, stick around 6-12 months and we'll see if the same thing happens to the new one.

Only if you leave your finger resting on the button. Wears out the throttle body prematurely.

They made many changes to the 17s. It is smaller yet fatter and at least the one I drove was painfully slippery. I still have not seen the new wheel bring out many "classy" drivers though.

I tried this, but with bicycling gloves. Worked ok, but not great.
