Looks much more promising than Top Gear America... although I wonder what the fuck John Salley has to offer, other than blackness.

Someone has to give the Charger/Magnum/Challenger good reviews.

It is customary to watch the video in the post to see if op is serious or being sarcastic before posting replies. I happen to agree with you.

I was looking for my black flip-flops today, and I couldn't find them. I was getting frustrated that I might have to wear my brown flip-flops, which meant I was going to have to act like a bitch and change a lot of other stuff (black watch, black belt, maybe white shorts...)

Anyways, while I was looking, and starting to get frustrated, I remembered something from this thread that made me chuckle...

I want my goddamn pinwheels! I want my goddamn pinwheels! I want my goddamn pinwheels! I want my goddamn pinwheels! I want my goddamn pinwheels! I want my goddamn pinwheels! I want my goddamn pinwheels!

It was just a false nuetral, I didn't think that would blow the motor, but it did apparently. I thought it would just bang of the limiter a few times.

I didn't even hear a rev limiter.

From the initial onset of the over-rev, it really sounds an accidental downshit. I mean, that motor pegged really quickly. I realize that they don't have flywheels as such and are quite snappy, but that sounded like an instantaneous redline. Anybody with a Miata and sloppy engine mounts knows what an inadvertent 3-2 shift sounds like.

And to Bond's point, if it was a false neutral, isn't that what the rev limiter is for?

Seems suspicious.

Thanks mazda, for using the worst quality fucking door locks you could find on the Gen III Protege.

They're over $130 each from the dealership and are guaranteed to fail.
