Kind of pointless to register your company in a state with no corporate level tax if you’ve got a pass-through; you’re better off going to FL or another state that has no income tax. I can see some states trying to crack down on this practice (out of state registration), maybe by claiming economic nexus somehow, but

This is like owners of pass-through businesses who suppress their salary to minimize tax liability. Can you get away with it? Yes. Is the headache that comes with the potential IRS audit offset by the savings? Not a chance.

This Range Rover phenomenon kind of parallels what I see as the two types of American Express Platinum cardholders out there (and probably has a decent amount of socioeconomic crossover as well):

I unfortunately got the idea from an excellent series the NYTimes ran on subprime auto loans; I know it’s not the exact combo shown but got me thinking that an X5M/X6M and STI wagon combo would be awesome.

Given the Philly connection, is it Chaka Fattah? If so, very cool but he might be selling it soon to pay his legal bills...

So are those “Garage not responsible for items lost, stolen, or damaged” signs essentially moot?

Probably thought that even with financing / interest he could “make money” every month by reselling at a profit. Sound investment strategy right there.

Porsche 356 Speedster. I see a guy driving one a couple times a week on my walk to work in downtown DC. Not sure if it’s a replica (in my mind it’s legit) but it puts me in that “some day...” mentality and makes the day go by quicker.

These days I find myself getting more excited at the sight of one of these than most supercars. This and the Isuzu VehiCROSS.

Within this category of annoying drivers lies one of the most hated in my mind, the person who thinks they have to maneuver like a semi truck to make a turn, ie start sweeping waaaaay left to make that right turn. Dear Sonata drivers, the following diagram does not apply to you:

I spotted this gem a couple years ago, could not stop cracking up.

This thing is serious garbage, I’m so glad to see someone finally calling it out for what it is. I see no shortage of them on the street in DC, the “badge” capital of the country. It’s just such a weak attempt at being the Quattroporte’s younger brother; classic example of a car that someone buys when they simply

I assume the horribly flawed “heritage, not hate” argument will be deployed at some point in the near future as a defense.

Viper from Sega GT for Dreamcast. All straight line speed, baby.

Shady listing, and the seller doesn’t appear to have any real selling feedback/experience. I’m calling scam.

An incredible list, and pretty unfathomable that one person amassed this collection. So amazing though that it’s also somewhat devoid of creativity; I get the impression that someone with beaucoup bucks just decided they wanted “all the best cars” and threw down for them, rather than truly “collecting” over a period

Pic makes the Focus RS looks like a girly catfish with sparkly eyes, and a black mouthguard protecting only the bottom teeth. Or maybe I’m losing my damn mind.

I think this has been posted on eBay before, years back. Either it’s a different owner unloading this heap of garbage or a different car by the same shop. (Though judging by the quality this looks pretty home grown.)

Strongly feel the G35 in both iterations looked Infiniti-ly better.

The only mention of penalties in this section of law is to state that they cannot exceed $5,000. I can all but guarantee the actual fine will be more like $50, which is unfortunate.
