E86 Z4M Coupe (06-08). Last of the naturally-aspirated M’s, with the amazing S54 engine combined with the stiffest chassis BMW ever produced. HATES being driven around town but really comes into its own on the twisties or the track. And I own one just like this.

HUGE high school flashback. (class of ‘83)

Chinese knock-off Titanic? That’s not just tempting fate, that’s shoving a firecracker up its ass.

DC to Pittsburgh. In winter. Uphill.

Aren’t you guys adorable.

What do I want to pay? I want to pay zero - that’s what I want to pay.

Welcome to the wold of cost-plus contracts and political patronage. Lockheed’s LCS variant could spontaneously combust at the Washington Navy Yard and the DOD would order ten more.

Beauty. Used to see Tornados doing their low-level training in the the north of Scotland. Those guys were having a ball.

That’s a bitchin’ ‘85 Virago.

Ah, a fellow boatnik.

Commer 2-stroke diesel

*shrug* Post video of yourself doing illegal things, get busted. Stupid is as stupid does.

Ooooooo, 904 GTS

Pure horseshit. Lockheed could restart production in no time flat, but they’re not interested - why spend time and money on a platform that can only be sold in the US when they’ve got this cash cow called the F35, which has multiple variants and can be sold just about anywhere? Of course Lockheed is going to drag…

This is a bad Vietnamese reproduction speedo

But this is what they do. The law may be dumb and contradictory (to some), but the agency that crushed this is simply carrying out part of its mission.
