She's gone... (E30 S50 vs Prius) Edit: Pics

[nando]

Wow! that's amazing! fuck ya.



Not true... Prius MSRP $18,950, MPG 46cty/53hwy
Jetta TDI MSRP $22,775, MPG 40cty/42hwy



Also not true... 1984 Honda Civic MPG 32cty/38hwy, plus 100x the pollution

You may not like the Prius, but you don't get to make stuff up :)

you forgot to count the $7500 cost to the public, and in the real world the tdi gets better mileage, while not being totally lame and dull as dishwater to drive.

Prius is more than an ecocar, its a lifestyle choice. a choice that annoys millions of motorists worldwide.

I don't have much against the Prius itself, other than it being a terrible car. Its the way that most folks drive them.

10 under in the passing lane, not giving a damn about surrounding areas. That is my issue with them.

You want to drive a Prius? Fine.. but stay the hell out of the left lanes (right lanes in the UK) and GTFO of my way when I am doing the speed limit + 10%

What is just as bad are the ones that drive them aggressively, like the driver that killed my E30 and some dumb lady I saw yesterday. She was tailgating everyone and then would pass on the right side doing 90+ MPH in the slow lanes, weaving in and out for no damn good reason.. WTF

Jesus man, glad you're alright but that would be grounds to start stabbing people for me. Your car was beautiful. Such a sad way to lose a car...from someone else's bad decision. Wish I had the cash, I'd swoop that S50.

¿Que?

I didn't read far enough back at what sparked the TDI/Prius debate but James C pretty much summed up everything I had to say.

Wow, what a fucking douchebag. If that guy was doing that to me, I'd be tempted to let him hit me and then punch him in the face when he got out of his car. What a piece of shit.

Wow, what a tool

[CorvallisBMW]

Wait, so all Prius drivers are slow, inattentive and road-clogging slow-mos.
And all Prius drivers are aggressive, wreckless asshats.

See how useless it is to pigeonhole tens of millions of people in to one stereotype based on a handful of biased experiences?

Whoops, wrong thread.

[MoreMayhem]

Just read through this thread.
Really sorry for your loss, I hope you are on the road to a full physical and mental recovery.
It doesn't matter how carefully we drive, some fucknut is bound to interfere.
I consider myself lucky everytime I complete even a simple trip to the corner store without incident.
