23km/L Not bad. That's 54 miles to the gallon for our American members

I had a '93 toyota corolla 2ltr diesel, did 15km/ltr ( newly bought, biggest mistake in my life, Good car, but expecive,drove that for 13 yrs, never buy a new car again)
after that i had a 2000 Focus SW 1.8 turbo intercooler, that did 17KM/ltr.(bought in 2006)
the 307SW did between 19 and 20KM/ltr, after the change i got more power
and more km/ltr.
best investment i could have done.

Quite a change, come in to some money? Just be ready for getting your right foot to adjust and not hold it down as long!
I know when I went from my 1.1 Clio to my old E30 325i the difference in acceleration really surprised me.

I don't know if this is the right place, but how to the plates in the US works? I had some doubts about it before, but I'll like to know how it really works

What exactly do you want cleared up?
The plate @TrdScionxB2 uses is expensive, I'll say that. Probably $100 a year.

What? How so? Here it costs $200 for a custom plate and that's it. No more paying. You only pay for the sticker that proves your car is safe for the roads and has passed emissions testing. You have a choice between applying a one year sticker or a two year sticker. The two-year sticker is cheaper in the long run.

And sshe's gonna be stuck like this until the replacement tire arrives Monday. I knew I'd go through tires quicker than usual with this, but not like this...not like this.

 

[Team THRT Drift]

Pair of pliers, some of that rubber compound, tire drill and you're good to go. $15 repair that lasts a year ( done it to my minivan). Took out a 5 inch flatened bolt with a pair of pliers. Rolled my tire to the mechanic and he inserted some tire compound (a hardened gel) into a tire drill and screwed it into the opening. Took out the drill and cut off the excess tire compound.

I feel your pain, I also had to roll around on the doughnut for a while.

What tires do you run on that?

Well, the price is one thing you already cleared up. That price is for a custom plate, and there are "standart" plates right? Do you still have to pay for that?

So, if I understand correctly, the plates prove that your car is in a safe and good condition for the road?

It's more or less different for every state. For example, in Texas, you can have "AAA 111" for either $350 for 5 years or $500 for 10 years, or like $275 for 3 years (not real pricing, but close). It's (heavily) discounted if you want "AAA ###" where the numbers are random, or "AA ###."
Additionally, Texas has like 100 official plate designs you can choose, whereas other states may only have 2 or 3.

 

[Team THRT Drift]

A plate's a plate. It just identifies your car. There is a sticker with a date of expiration on the plate however that tells a driver/official whether your car is safe or not.
