How much? Also, how crappy will our version be compared to the European version? I saw these when I was in Germany last year and they look like fun little cars, but I have a feeling that the badge will add $10k to the sticker. What would its competition be here in the US?

I really want to dislike this swap, but it looks clean. You have to admit that it sounds fun too... even with an automatic.

@maximum_sarge: Ice cream for everyone!

Those guys were sure waiving their hands in the air. It's almost as if they just don't care.

There is an 80's Celica GT (very similar to a Supra) for sale near me for $2,500. This is not helping me fight the urge to buy that old RWD Toyota...

I don't believe that anyone is forcing you to "put up" with it...

I hate it when I don't order enough breasts for the weekend.

No burnout? I'm disappointed.

Plus, how in the hell would you get it out of your basement once it's completed?!

I don't think that we're interested in using our reserves until we use up everyone else's.

A loose electrical connection in the engine bay (resultant from the accident) created sparks and then apparently a quite impressive fire - all because the wires were still hot (as in electrified, not curvaceous with luscious lips).

I was in Germany for work, otherwise I couldn't afford to wander around southern Germany visiting museums. The Porsche museum is in the same town... their automotive awesomeness quotient is through the roof in Stuttgart.

Green = eco-friendly, right?!

Ahhh, I see. Then Hezbollah would start boycotting (or bombing) Mercedes though...

Watch racingjunk.com for a nicely prepped example.

My thoughts exactly. The Abarth and the Brera (among others) are reward cars. I think those should be removed from the list in order to better understand the top cars that people are playing.

'82 F250 - A Camaro ran a stop sign in front of me; t-boned the idiot in the Camaro and totaled both vehicles.

I don't think that "secret" means what you think it means, Peter. I think that anyone who has ever visited the Mercedes museum in Stuttgart knows this, assuming that they read the history of the company.

I guess it depends on the speed of the truck, but I was rear-ended in a Talon sitting in the left turn lane at a red light. I couldn't get out of the way, but I definitely braced against the headrest and yelled at my passenger. That was also in town, and I'm sure somewhere involving highway speeds would be almost…
