They come by the airport in the city where I grew up every year. When I finally graduate from college and have a good job I am going to pay for a ride on one of them. They are beautiful machines. It is incredible to see them fly over my hours on the approach to the airport.

Exactly! It turns out you can just trust most people

Yes the TSA can apparently find guns that people have on them or in their bags however you do not know how many made it though security. Also in many US states it is legal to carry a firearm. I could see a person who is in a rush forgetting to leave this behind making these incidents not terrorist attempts but…

Maybe we don’t need this at all. After all the TSA is 95% ineffective and there still hasnt been a terrorist attack at a US airport in 14 years. I think thats probably too logical for most politicians though. They think “We need to legislate something that does nothing so people feel safe.” Perception is more…

I rode in my friends classic Mini a few days ago that has the steering wheel on the right side of the car. We were driving in LA trafic and it was a very strange experience. I was sitting very low and upright at the same time while sitting on the “drivers” side of the car without driving it. My friend who drives the…

My e30 doesn’t have cup holders. It just means that I have to take a friend when I get an x-large Slurpee.

I didn’t realize that the limit to two cars per team was a safety restriction. Being on a pit crew can be dangerous sometimes. After all in Spain two different F1 drivers almost ran over the jackman with one of the jackmen actually getting hit.

I think there is a diference between not being interested in road cars and not being into cars. If I got to drive the fastest cars in the world on a regular basis I’m not sure that driving a street car would be very interesting to me either. He seems perfectly interested in other racecars.

It seems like most of the people who get to this level in teaching would be real car guys. Can you name a driver who isn’t?

My dad’s e30 was reported for smoking by someone a couple of years ago. Fortunately as long as the car passes its smog inspection there isn’t anything they can do with the report.

I'm not sure where you went to high school but at the high school I went to in California no one ever got punished for watching a fight. Punishing people who happen to see someone else who breaks a law or rule seems a bit extreme. People will race or fight with or without spectators. I obviously agree the people who…

In San Francisco the historic railroad cars stay above ground. The subway system uses much newer cars.

Why is Cadillac choosing to change is naming system from ATS, CTS, ext? Is sells like this naming system is well recognized by consumers. Won't changing this confuse your customers just like Infinity's recent change.

E30's are sort of overpriced for what they are. They have become a little over hyped in my opinion and I own one. They are certainly fun car but I feel like for $10,000 the e46 would be a much better purchase. The aftermarket if extensive but it is also fairly expensive. Spending $1000-1500 on suspension on a…

i actually thought this was one of the funniest episodes that have had in a while. The ambulance challenge reminded me of how top gear used to be. I hope the rat of the season is as good as this episode was. I am curious. Why did you not like it?

It has to be an e30 with an manual! http://www.ebay.com/itm/BMW-3-Seri…

I would argue that my 31 year old car is better than modern cars in a variety of ways. It is lighter than most modern cars. Therefore it has a driving experience that in my opinion is superior to many modern cars. Is it as safe as a modern car? No, But I get 30 MPG on the free way so it is nearly as efficient. It all…

if you but a used car at the bottom of its depreciation curyou can loose little to no money. I bought an e30 6 months ago. If I went to sell that car today I would not loose a cent. Yes I have had to do some basic maintenance but changing oil yourself is very inexpensive and easy. The car has also been perfectly…

Basically the key to getting car people some power in the government is creating a national organization to unite them with a common goal. I'm thinking an organization similar to the NRA but for cars. The NRA is very powerful because it has a relatively small but very passionate membership who are willing to invest…

How about the e30 M3. I personally believe they are overrated and are selling for far more than they should but the market is climbing so you shouldn't lose money. E30, are also fairly practical as they have decent ground clearance, small, and can also hold a surprising large amount of stuff. I know since I moved to…
