This is for strictly mildly interesting material. If it's too interesting, it doesn't belong. If it's not interesting, it doesn't belong.
This is obviously an objective criteria, so the mods are always right. Or maybe mildly right? Ahh.. what do we know?
Just post some stuff and don't spam.

Seriously. I keep telling my dudes to hold onto their 2005-15 models. Good safety tech, maybe a Bluetooth audio connection and no fucking microphones or cameras.
As it stands I'll just keep my 2012 bmw 128 running forever. It's paid off, fun, and has never given me a problem.
Some of those are even manual, which always seemed so bizarre yet cool!
Mine is like semi-manual or something? I can change from automatic to manual basically.
...I still havent learned how to actually use the manual driving BUT I COULD SOMEDAY
Yeah a lot of automatics have a manual shifting mode, but the crz actually has a 3 pedal manual option. It's the only manual hybrid I'm aware of.
