This is the one I was going to post as well, truely a massive ship. At 225,484 gross tonnes it definitely qualifies as a great stonkingly huge boat, and the quantum is just insane. I've sailed on Voyager class vessels and thought those were properly large, but the Oasis class it about double that size, and the Quantum…

Nope! MINI of the Woodlands brought one to our club's 10th anniversary bbq, and it looks great in person. Now, I will agree that it's a superfluous model that really doesn't need to exist, but that has nothing to do with it's looks, which are reminiscent, I think, of the Range Rover Evoque.

Don't get me wrong, it's a cool car, but it's not new car money cool. Knock the 2 off the front and we can talk.

Me too :(

Yup, nothing else sounds like a Subaru!

Always!

I think the Caterham I got to drive last weekend counts for my #1. I mean, it's lighter than any stripped miata, and has power nothing, so it doesn't get any more direct than that. I've done 5, 7, and 4, and ridden in #2...provided one with the B16B from a Civic Type R under the hood counts, I'm really hoping to get a…

Amen, very well said sir! This is why I bought a Mini. Are there faster cars in that price segment? More reliable ones? More practical? Hell yes! But none of them put a smile on my face like the little turbocharged rollerskate masquerading as a car. The road is not a race track, I don't care how fast my daily driver…

Hence why I agreed that it was NP :D

Well, it runs for now, it's an Alfa so it'll likely breakdown 3 miles down the road for no aparent reason. But agreed, NP.

Pretty sure these guys are pretty high up on the list. They don't seem to be aware of things called turn signals, apparently are under the impression that they own the road, and are somehow inherently better than the rest of us plebeians. Yeah, I'd say that BMW ranks pretty high up on the ass-hat driver's brand list.

This is a blinker, turn signal, or indicator light depending on what part of the world you live in. They are controlled by this thing:

The XRS actually had a different engine and suspension at least, and it could be had with a manual over here in the states. Yes it was still a corolla and the brakes were horrible, and it was still boring to look at, but atleast it wasn't just a lip and spoiler package like the S was.

Yeah, but she'd probably just fly off onto something else afterwards.

It was an option on the 1st gen MINI. For the 2nd gen there is the MINI-Connected option.

I doubt this will happen. While people are listening to the radio less and less for music, there are still plenty of them that use it for news radio in the morning, and there is also emergency broadcasts in situations such as hurricanes where they are evacuating a city and directions and traffic reports are given over…

It's ideal for backseat drivers as well.

Amen, Mazda is one of the few companies that get this right. I really don't know who thought that using the 2-3 motion was a good idea, but they need to shot.

Ok guys, this recommended/latest post thing is seriously annoying. I don't leave the page up all the time here at work, instead I check it periodically for new articles throughout the day. So, the page setting it self back to "recommended" every time I pull up the page regardless of how many times I set it to latest…

True, but like I said, it all depends on the owner so it's not a hard an fast rule. However if the plance is a Cessna that belongs to your friend that doesn't believe in oil changes and thinks that replacing tires before they are completely smooth is stupid and a waste of money, I'd think twice before getting in to it.
