@Tanshanomi: Sign me up. The only downside is that at 6'3" I don't exactly fit in the car.

Call me crazy, but everytime I drove my roommates manual Yaris sedan a small part of me yearned to buy one and build it into an autocross monster.

When shit hits the proverbial fan a lot of these go hand in hand. When you have less than a second to react, you need to already have an exit strategy, remain calm, smoothly maneuver out of the situation and have the precision to know just where you can put your car.

@Sam Smith: You and me both. It gets really old trying to explain to people "No, really, I'm fine. I sweat like this when I'm comfortable." Stupid genetics.

@Corn-vette: I prefer the dead hooker for trunk volume measurements.

I was nodding to myself the entire time I read the Jetta story. I can't count the number of times I had to grab my trusty flathead to open my hood. Pretty much the main reason I never got a badgeless grill.

@SantaRita: No reverse, door traps you against wall?

@Wunno Sev: Unexpectedly? Blasphemy! When you start with a Reliant Robin challenge, the season is going places.

@b33g33: He's not tall, but most F1 drivers are 5'8" or so.

@Wish my Sonata had a V8: That looks like a Land Rover press photo.

@hbuzzell: Don't ever try to read CollegeHumor or ESPN comments.

@Philip_Fry: Do you have it set up to see non-featured comments? The site becomes a lot more enjoyable when you do.

@LastActionZero: Superbowl XLIV?

I'm pretty sure I recognize that garage from garage journal (where they say the story came from). I believe he calls it "The M House."

@frogberg: It's not like they're firing all the bankers and throwing the engineers into the credit business. They will just own a company that's already established with loans.
