By biometric, do you mean eye scan, fingerprint or something else? Both would be terrible for use on a motorcycle surely. Needing to take off your gloves to start the bike? Irritating at best, rage inducing more likely.

You realise that there were a LOT of B26DETT into 510 swaps done well before Forza came out?

A hell of a lot of people involved in the Top Fuel drag racing world would argue with you on that one.....

The radar on the rear window tells you it's a highway patrol car, they are all v8's.

:Jalopnik:

Or 000 as maybe needed for anyone hugging a Koala.

If you live in the rural areas of Victoria, Australia, be warned: at least one koala bear has been spotted attempting to steal a car. While the plot was foiled by 15-year old Sam Box, authorities state that the koala is freaking adorable and is considered extremely huggable. You've been warned.

Brabus had an initial order of 40, fairly sure that was later increased.

If it's just the 6x6 chassis you want, there are 200 of just 1 of the 5 6x6 variants that the Aussie Army ordered. It'll probably be 15 years before they start getting surplussed, but given the way a G Wagen is constructed - swapping the mil spec cab for a civilian spec one, should be about a 4 hour job.

"We'd long suspected the 6x6 was the result of "bring your kid to work day" at one of Mercedes' design shops..."

Do NASCAR drivers, or a drivers association not inspect a venue prior to competing? 850 feet of wall seems like a fair bit to me, to have been missed by everyone involved.

True. Most other places that isn't needed however, since the law states the owner of the vehicle needs to know who has it at all times - US law, needs the driver to be photographed.... It's an easy fix really.

Turn the cameras to face the rear of the vehicle, like most of the world does. A flash from in-front of the vehicle - into the drivers eyes is, arguably, almost as dangerous as running a red light in the first place.

You know why you can't get awesome European trucks in the US? A ridiculous tax that came about over a fight about chickens. No joke.

In the designated over taking lane......

He took it in complaining the speedometer wasn't accurate.

On a 10-minute drive, the mechanics reportedly got his car up to 118 mph on public roads, including one truly scary right-side pass you can see around the 1:03 mark in the video. Yeesh.

Ever wonder what ventriloquist Jeff Dunham drives? Of course you have — you're human. Like most of us, I'm sure you assumed that he drives a filthy Ford Aspire with a home-made wooden rear extension that's packed with ventriloquist dummies, puppets, and empty bottles of cheap gin. That's not the case at all!

The first paragraph should be enough for you.

Webber never ended up in the woods, he did however manage to repeat his trick the following day. It was Peter Dumbreck that ended up off the track during the race.
