While I agree with you (I was going to post it) let's not forget thaht the 747 is a prop plane and is therefore much lighter than you normal 747.

It's true, it's not a luxurious as the German cars of the era, especially if you compare it to the W140.

I know, i'm sorry if my comment made you think otherwise :/

What about the revetec engine ?

Well, the 605 was a great looking car.

It's a shame, really, it was a wonderful car, the french S-Class...

That might come as a shock to you, but yes we do (not for cars though...)

Nope, no hydropneumatic suspension here, just the good old ones ;)

Hell yeah ! It's a volvo, so it's a potential sleeper, especially since her bodykit is not screaming "HEY! HEY! LOOK AT! I SAID LOOK AT ME! LOOK I CAN GO FAST A MAKE A LOT OF NOISE"

Last year French government passed a law saying that new cars should have daytime running lights.

Well in France, since last year, new cars have to have daytime running lights.

Ari Vatanen. Because Peugeot 405 T16 + Pikes Peak + Driving with only one hand

What about Audi's full led headlights on the latests A6 and A8. They look gorgeous when they are not on.

Yes it is. It's Peugeot and Citroën's TDi.

Well the chase scene from Taxi 2 has quite a lot of automotive destruction with a huge pile up of our, then, crappy police cars.

The prices are approximately the same here in France. Although our government anounced they will force gaz prices to go down, and since Monday a litter cost 6 cents less.

I forgot, 1,48€ per litter is like if you, in the USA, were paying 7$ for a gallon.

Last time I filled up my car it cost me 66,6€ at approx. 1,48€ per litter. Luckily my car, which is a Citroën Xsara VTS HDi, manages to do 5,6L/100km (42mpg apparently).

What about the fastest conventional wheeled train ever ? The TGV 4402 which reached 574 kph in 2007.
