Great choice, but that is a lot of miles. I sold my '88 325 5-speed cinnabar red 2-door five years ago for $3,250 with 155,000 miles to the first person to look at it. I don't think he cared that Will Turner set up the suspension or much of anything else, it was just the first clean E30 he found back in 2007. IIRC,…

When you've nothing left to burn you have set yourself on fire.

Hopefully the Tesla brick owners were the sort of people who defend Tesla for building bricks. They were almost certainly the sort of people who don't think experience or wisdom should govern their lives.

He rode the shit out of his Honda Elite 80 on the roads when he was a teenager.

Weren't the 2 liter naturally aspirated BTCC cars making about 300 to 320 hp almost twenty years ago, and even then they needed intake restrictors and rev limits to keep power down. Why do you think they added turbocharging to the required specifications?

No. The ethanol mandate adds cost and wastes both fuel and food, which is why Obama has resisted lifting it for so long.

This would mean Obama is actually doing something good, or at least less awful than is possible. Does not compute.

They're here. I find photographs to generally be rather generous to them, but you're entitled to your opinion.

Thanks to the FF, the Mondial doesn't look that bad anymore. Also, it has a real manual transmission that requires a real driver to operate. Maybe that's why he could stop it without destroying it once the brakes failed.

Nicely played sir!

That there are people defending the ultimate in-authenticity machine says it all about the changing face of BMW drivers. Makes me want to puke.

I was at a table with bottle service in a club during an expensive NYE party once. My best friend got so drunk that he literally did a face plant on the table from a standing position, scattering or shattering hundreds of dollars in overpriced drinks. I don't recall anyone having a response other than laughter or…

Obama must be pissed that Ackerson is linking leaking sensitive information with acts of treason! That's practically an own goal.

This would have been a much better story if they'd pulled the guy out of the car and disappeared him.

You suggested that the deal was offensive to the US taxpayers, that it cost too much, that Ewanick hid the costs to move it along, and that you were glad he was punished for putting it together. If the deal is bad and GM is right, then why on earth did they proceed with the deal after Ewanick left? I believe Matt…

I completely agree with you. Have you read Brock Yates' now 30-year-old book titled "The Decline and Fall of the US Auto Industry"? He details how GM executives were cultivated and how anyone that ever had an idea or dissenting opinion was culled from the heard. It seems to still be the case.

You do know that GM went through with the deal after he left, right?

The entertaining thing here is just how pathetic the state of the advertising industry is today. In a deep pool of poop? That's some clever innuendo right there! Shameless recitation of talking points is the weapon of the deceitful and inept in this dark age. You can fool dumbasses most of the time, and we have…

Only 90%? I think you're being a bit generous.

I don't know that I share your belief that all cars are set up by pros to handle well at their limits. I suspect issues like ride and rolling resistance take precedence over limit handling in most cars. There is also the issue of practically undefeatable electronic nannies that are ultimately set up so that you will…
