Well. That certainly shut me up...

You do not live up here. You do not understand the language sensitivities up here. Watching a half-hour Pierre Trudeau documentary on A&E does not make make you an expert on French-English relations in Canada. Yes, we are north of the USA. Yes, the colder ambient temperatures up here may...

Funny, but very ignorant. I don't know why the mods allow this...

Oh. I thought you meant a new one. I had heard rumblings that they were going to make a Rally Focus, but I guess I didn't look hard enough at your post to see the Escort part. My bad...

Hehe, we're all friends here, A'PEXistud. Anonymous debate is difficult to keep from spinning into a flame-war. That being said, this thread is going nowhere fast...

I didn't think they had confirmed that yet?

Re: What are the tranny problems? Basically you've got an AWD system with a high-torque turbo. When some numb-nutz decides to drop the clutch at 6000 rpm, you're gonna have tranny troubles. Evidently Subaru didn't do that good a job re-inforcing the differentials. Either that or they didn't...

Regarding your post from the Protegeclub forum thread: chill dude. I'm bored at work, just having some fun. All previous joking aside, big_ben, you're right about the M3. I guess I'm biased because I have a 2001 M3. Only thing is, it kills my bank account. My payments are about $1200 / month...

Re: I told you so! You mean act exactly the same way you're acting? Man, you crack me up...

Yes, you are right, I am completely stupid and brain dead. Or else I must be to allow myself to be sucked into replying to your post. You don't want me here, fine, get the mods to ban me. You want me to shut up? Post something intelligent to retort my comments. If you can understand that P5...

Don't worry about it too much. Bottom line, you never authorized Mazda to do any repairs to your car other than those that would be covered by your insurance company. You have your car; that is good. You also haven't paid any money out of your own pocket; that is also good. It's up to the...

There are lighting standards that must be adhered. The car manufacturers design the headlamp shape and bulb arrangement a certain way to meet these standards. Changing it means that you have changed the functionality and maybe the safety of your vehicle.

Check with the QTM (Quebec Ministry of Transportation). They are the only ones who have laws covering automobiles. The eyelids should be fine during the day, but at night they can make you take them off. As far as the banner, check with the QTM.

It'd be fun til you actually cause an accident because of it...
