BMW 328. Oops, too late.

There are countless available spots in that lot. I don't blame him for taking two for his Ferrari. I'm far more offended by the assclown who bought the X6. That thing is an eyesore and a burden on the populace at large.

@stephdumas:

@Kamikaze5-0: Who knew that Robocop really was the future?

@IN THE FACE!: Why that is a determination that luxury car buyers have to make is a bigger question. Do I want a boring Audi? Do I want an ugly BMW or Porsche? Why would I want an expensive car that is boring or ugly?

@catchmyshadow: And now Honda can claim design leadership for their silly Crosstour.

The world has gotten so stupid that all of Mr. Pine's neighbors would now paint their houses purple without a second thought.

@87CapriceEstate: There is a checkpoint halfway between San Diego and Los Angeles on the I5 where they look at plates and ask about citizenship. Where I live though, the regulations that US citizens live under and Mexicans do not rather grate on the nerves.

@87CapriceEstate: Our pollution comes from Mexico. Plenty of it comes right through our so-called border on 3 bald tires and one wooden wagon wheel. Maybe enough to make up 5% of San Diego traffic, with narry a functioning taillight or catalytic converter in evidence.

@87CapriceEstate: Murilee Martin used to post photos from California self service junkyards pretty frequently here, with all sorts of tasty european cars with sound bodies that would be worth a mint to enthusiasts in the north east. The reason people give up on them and they don't sell for $200 to $500 miniumum bids…

@ManBehindTheDesk: Here is a message I received via Car and Driver's 'backfires' after commenting that it was pathetic for the new BMW M3 'light weight' special edition to punish the scales to the tune of 3,600 lbs:

@87CapriceEstate: It comes down to whether or not they have mandatory emissions testing in the region the car came from. In California, no car is worth much if it can't pass emissions. If you ever wonder why our pick-n-pulls are getting to be legendary, it is because practically every one of the cars needs more than…

Is it really a 2-stroke Saab? I haven't seen a beater 2-stroke Saab since the mid-70s. When they were brand new, Bob Sinclair carried at least one spare engine in the back on out of town trips. The only remaining ones are museum pieces. Even if it has Ford V4 power though, the weakest link of any 96 is probably the…

@87CapriceEstate: There is something close to brainwashing going on here when a 16 year old car that sold in volumes close to 400,000 per annum is cause for suspicion in a field full of rare luxury cars. Try getting a complete FIAT 131 for less than a few thousand dollars on ebay.

I stopped visiting Hooniverse after they tricked me into wasting my time on this piece of crap. If this makes you cry, you probably cry at least once a day anyway. Fail.

@Baby Beater Benz: Who the hell else would buy what BMW is selling these days?

Nothing screams decadent civilization in decline quite as loudly as these idiotic German 4-door coupes.

I hate turbo anything, but I had to vote nice price just because the exhaust manifold is so beautiful.

Shouldn't this story be on Jezebel?

@Quattro-luvr: Or he cares about them enough to put them in the back seat. I remember these IIHS test. They basically found that a 5 series drives through a Mini, a Camry crushes an IQ, and an E-class boots a Smart car like a soccer ball. The funny thing is that it seemed like physics was a revelation to so many in…
