Sorry, I can’t hear you over the generic Biker-style rock music!

I never bothered to watch Yovager, so I suspect: A bald head?

In my opinion the new name ist idiotic. “Oh, a new Coke Zero. Hm, it’s called Coke Zero Sugar ... that means, it’s WITH sugar, right?”

It really looks great ... and a lot of eye-candy for us jalopniks. But, as I already commented after the first trailer: some of the cars are horribly anachronistic.

My late grandfather was a master in this. He used to come forward, shake hands and say: “Ah, Mr *Grmblbrmblahem*! So good to see you here!” even if he didn’t know the person and everyone thought “What a nice and considerate fella!”

Damn, get your facts together!

A certain ... person ... in our office managed it the other way round. After three years of heavy coffee drinking we finally got him to buy coffee, too. And what did he do? He bought ground coffee and poured it directly into the grinder of our office espresso machine...
Unfortunately, a colleague stopped him from…

My husband has no idea what to do unless given very specific instructions [...].

Definitely less than the whole fake vent honeycomb area surrounding it.

What is a “phone book”?

As an European, I’m amazed that a lot of Americans oppose a general healthcare insurance as “socialistic” and at the same time without blinking accept things like HOA or municipal laws on lawn care (lawn care!).

This is not per se a matter of “OEM or not”, the decibles do count for all (italian car makers exempt). The OEMs just have the money and manpower to figure out where the loopholes in the regulations are. Simplified, you are allowed to be loud “x” decibels at “y” rpm in “z” gear. As an OEM it is relatively easy to…

As a German, I’d like to add that both the dog- and the cookie-ad are horribly overdubbed. Perhaps the original voices weren’t assholey enough...

Yeah, that’s a real bummer. I’m one year into my first ‘Burb (GMT800, though) and I’m irreversibly in love with the immense space to lug things around.

Just like this classic promo pic of the gorgeous E28 M5. The car must have been driven backwards into the pristine snow. OK. But wait! There is no driver inside but there are also no footprints leading away, meaning the driver has to be ducking very low...

The little round thingy up on the snorkel usually houses a cyclone chamber to centrifuge the dust out of the air. In addition the air in snorkel height is significantly cleaner than in normal intake height.

Fun fact: in the E34, BMW eliminated the need for a flasher relay by giving its work to the ZKE (Zentrale Karosserie-Elektronik = Central body electronic). Not wanting to irritate the customers, they placed a classic clicking relais in the dashboard that has nothing to do with the indicators aside from clicking in…

Hi David!

Well, “Cold War” is a little stretched, since it generally went up to 1989 ... the pictured E34 touring is a ‘92 model (touring introduced 9/91, E36 mirrors on E34 came 9/92). In addition, it has white turn signals, which were standard only on M5 models. Police cars never would have had them retrofitted.

Oh, I’m sure, somewhere in Germany, preferably in the east, there is a Dodge Ram or a Chevy M1008 with both. Driven by a mustachioed guy with a mullet (srsly).
