"Breakpoint"? Really?

Wow! eight-pot calipers.

And they did so well in naming their concept cars, too. Damn shame.

PTFE=Teflon. Teflon is DuPont's trademark for polytetrafluroethylene resin.

Had it been in the US, the fire truck driver would have died in a hail police gunfire.

And I meant Islands... Damn Mondays.

Are they going to paint "The Falkland Island Are Ours" on their cars?

Studebaker was always a bit esoteric and while that doesn't usually translate into huge sales, there's still a place for it. Plus, they're just so damn beautiful.

I leased a MINI in 2007 and it came with their "Bumper to Boot" warranty. The only thing I ever bought was fuel. The warranty covered everything else. MINI replaced brake pads (and a disc), flushed the brake fluid and replaced it with new and installed windshield wiper refills at around 24,000 miles. This is on top

Current-gen Mitsubishi Lancer?

This beats the hell out of the Chevy Volt dancers.

Did anyone ever figure out what exactly Fred was steering?

I've got a 1973 Mini with a 998cc BMC A-series four cylinder. Its intake and exhaust manifold is a single casting.

Not too difficult in Alabama. Nothing 35 years old or older requires a title. Basically you can register an old car with a bill of sale.

I went to ARS when they came to Mobile (Hey, neighbor) several years ago. The line was very long but I wouldn't trade the experience for anything. Yes, I'm still a working stiff since my treasures were just a cut above "crap" grade.

I like NPR as well, but Sonari Glinton seems to come from an angle of "if I can't understand something then no one else can, either."

Izzat a rare Trabant GT?

In addition to the honey they harvest, the structural honeycomb is pretty useful too.

Well, apparently that almost happened. The rumor du jour is that Fiat and PSA Peugeot Citroen have discussed a merger. That's right, Italians and French, side by side, working to build sexy cars that will constantly be in the shop.

NAIC/MG has said that a two seat sports car is in the works. They've got to get volume up to pay for it, though and that means that they have to sell a lot of MG3 and MG6 models. BTW, if you find yourself on the Gulf Coast, you can hoon my MGB.
