100% wrong here buddy. You didn't become unattractive, you BOTH just became different people who wanted different things. That's normal, people change over time, I bet you're not the same person you are today as when you were 20. To go back to my own experience, I remember crying myself to sleep in my kitchen one night after I'd broken up with my Ex, and I remember thinking just how I should've gone out with her and her friends more rather than spend time chatting to friends on the internet and faffing around with cars. I was utterly despondent. Today, I'm with someone who enjoys my company but understands I have other interests: Some she shares, like cars; some she doesn't, like chatting with strangers on the internet! What I'm getting at is that the person I wanted to spend my life with wasn't the person I thought it was, and I DID find someone who accepted me and tells me to go do my own things every now and then as otherwise I irritate her, but in a joking way. Then say it. Write it all down in a letter, and send it to her. I did this, and it does make you feel better when you've said your piece.

Maybe they already have: That's where the designers of the first gen Cayenne and the 996 ended up

Cue Nissan execs scrambling for a black sheet to cover that up Looks worse in red.

Hey, it works for Aston Martin!

That's a bit harsh! The Prius isn't that bad.

See, I go the other way: PDK for the road and a manual for the track. I like the less faff on the road so I can concentrate on what's happening around me, but I want the manual for the track so I can really push my skills. I personally found PDK boring on track, but each to their own. Certainly your way round makes more sense.

No-one is buying their cars any more, they're all off buying either the better driving Ford, the cheaper Kia or the more premium Audi. So they're trying to make their cars stand out, so you go "Ooh, I saw a Honda today!" rather than "Oh, that was a Honda? Looks like a bland sh*tbox to me". Unfortunately, they haven't quite figured out that 'stand out' does not equal 'sandpaper for the eyeballs please'.

I don't think it makes you a walkover, but paying for her insurance is no longer your responsibility: It's hers. If she needs the car for school runs, then she needs to make sure she can sort that herself. You need to stop asking her things, and start telling her things. If she won't meet face to face then that's fine, people have lives to get on with, but then send her a letter telling her what needs to be sorted. For example, tell her you'll pay the insurance up to the end of April, and the loan as well up to the same point. This gives her time to sort things, but also gives a final cut off that she knows to stick to. In a few years time you'll look back on this and agree with me, I promise. I kept my other half on the mortgage of my old place for way longer than was healthy, and it did no benefit to either of us.

Anyone with half a brain or an eye on resale will get the manual. In reality, I suspect it'll go 50/50 in terms of sales, but it depends on who the dealer picks to sell to.

Oh they know their customers, they just don't want to give them a choice. They'd sell just as many even with a manual option as they limit the numbers on purpose, hell they could even charge more for the manual 'box!

I read it too, I thought it was very open and honest and it made a lot of sense. No harm in what you said at all fella

About £700 in 18" for me, 245 front and 275 rear.

They're on every news outlet, so I assume so.

Looks better in the dark grey, it hides many of the stupid lines. But I say looks better in dark grey in the same way that Katie Hopkins looks fit when you turn the lights off.

They didn't realise that the market for the manual was that strong, they just (wrongly) assumed everyone wanted to go as fast as possible regardless of involvement. Them bringing the manual back shows that they actual listen as a company, it's just a shame that Ferrari and Lambo don't do the same. Imagine a 2WD manual Huracan Spyder...

If that's what teenagers want, then I think we've found out the biggest problem with kids today

500hp, 347ft/lb, 0-60 3.4secs for PDK but clearly we'd all be taking the manual version at 3.9secs 9000rpm and a stick to change gear with. Aside from the slightly dodgy red trim around the wheels and on the seats, that's simply beautiful. I prefer the front of the gen1 to this one, but I'm splitting hairs really.

320hp, 295ft/lb, 0-60 5.7secs. And just about the ugliest hatch we've ever seen grace the market. I'm not sure what's worse, that messy front bumper assembly or that hysterically shaped triple exhaust :lol: Man, that is seriously ugly. They didn't just raid the parts bin for various things to stick to it, they decided to drop it into the skip outside and see what hooked on. Who the hell signed that off?!

You and me both, I reckon I might be due for some new boots then too.

What car is this in matey? Dension stuff works well, mate had one in his 997.1 and the integration was excellent.

Internet arguing is the best PS4 is multi compound (like the MPSC2), unlike the PSS which is dual compound. That and the fact there's been a few years' worth of R&D into developing new rubber makes it the go-to choice for me in 18" sizes. If I had 19" wheels then yes, MPS4S is the way to go, but for 18" I don't feel hard done by at all.

He was clear. He said MPS4, not MPS4S.

Why? What else are is he going to do with it, give it all to her? Erm, no thanks, I'd rather waste it on an experience than give it to someone like that. Seriously, would you just give it up then? Or donate the lot to charity.

? it's the same car same suspension Nope, the suspension is different between the two cars. Stiffer on the rear on the 86, stiffer on the front on the BRZ. The difference is far more noticeable than you might think, too.

Go see a solicitor. Now. However, unless the agreement is written down somewhere then I'd tell her to get stuffed. Or I'd spend every last penny the second I got my hands on it: Rather you enjoy it than her. Imagine a £20K holiday, being waited on hand and foot, or hiring an NSX to drive Suzuka, or a GT3 to drive the Ring...
