Image
Honda Civic Type R | Character I Didn't Fall In Love With    I have a lot of love for the FK8, it is an amazing machine in so many ways, and will be a classic moving forward. With that being said, there is always a negative side to every car, and since I own one myself... I think I am qualified to put them out there. Please note the items on this list are with relation to a stock Type R rolling off the Honda lot, and the aftermarket can fix some of these (which personally is fun, so there's that). Aggressive Looks Without the Roar    Your neck breaks as you spot some eagle winged vehicle zoom past you. You go what the heck is that (unless you know of course ;) like most of my readers)? Well the problem here is that your vision caught the attention of the car before the noise. In fact, unless he/she was shifting right in front of you for that blow off sound, you would not hear much of anything. Basically air! It is beyond me how Honda can have a car that ...

What I Love About the Fiesta ST | You Will Be Missed    I was extremely sad when I heard that Ford would be pulling the Fiesta, more importantly, the ST variant out of the United States market. Surely declining Fiesta sales, and unreliable automatic transmissions in non ST trims are to blame. Having said that, an enthusiast could dream that Ford would decide to keep the Fiesta ST in the United States for years to come!    *This is not a thorough review of the Fiesta ST, nor will it touch on any negatives with the car*    Where do I start with this car... There are so many different components that make up the Fiesta ST. All of which work so well in conjunction, and provide an extremely fun car to take around any road your heart desires to explore. Best of all, it can be yours for under $22,000.     Let us start with the six speed manual gearbox, with its crisp and satisfying chink as you slot into each gear. Ford knew what the...

People are Amazing, You are Amazing    A beautiful Saturday morning drive to your favorite coffee shop. You pull up next another car at a red light. A slight glance at the driver shows an enthusiastic individual singing and dancing along with the music bumping in the car. A group of teens laughing as they cross the street. Then a green light opens one to endless possibility.

We have all been there, fresh off a break up with your old significant other. Feeling at an all time low, where your outlook is dark. Did you get help getting past this? Probably! Your best friend most likely stole you from your own self and took you for a ride to forget. Maybe your family started hitting you with all the positive reinforcement you needed to see that life will be fine. The...
