Except Centennial Beach is only about 15 ft deep. Perfect for open water swim triathlon training, but wouldn’t be much for diving.

There was a B5 diesel A4 running where I used to live that was badged as an S4. Kid worked as a pizza delivery boy, so probably wasn’t making S4 money. Felt odd when I parked my debadged real S4 next to him in the parking lot.

This! I’ve noticed a few fake German cars while commuting home in Chicago. But when your BMW 550 only has one tailpipe, you’re not fooling me buddy.

Are the Warriors about to become the 2001 Mariners?

This!

Buying a used Audi, especially an S or RS model. What could go wrong?!?

Don’t walk onto the dealership and ask “What do you have that’s fast...?”

I’m an emissions compliance engineer. You stated factually incorrect statements regarding emissions control devices and I corrected you. Then you continued to be wrong so I continued to correct you and got a little snippy too. But the only reason there’s an argument to be had is because you’re on the internet talking…

If you’re going to complain about being called a moron, then perhaps you should at least do so using complete sentences and proper spelling.

Secondary air injection isn’t diluting the exhaust, it is adding more fresh air, which means more oxygen, to the exhaust to help the catalysts clean up any unburnt hydrocarbons.

Except that the same “loophole” basically exists under U.S. law as well... They’re called Auxiliary Emission Control Devices, or AECDs. You’re allowed to have them for engine protection, you just have to disclose them to the agencies ahead of time and justify their inclusion. Hopefully they’re significantly included…

Maybe this will drive Europe to act more like the US-based agencies, especially ARB, and do a more thorough job of reviewing manufacturers’ cert applications, especially with respect to enable/disable conditions on AECDs.

RS6 Avant is basically my dream daily driver...

Except the precedent made him no longer President.

Ah, gotcha. Yeah, it was Sunday morning. I think it may have been a one time Spring meetup.

Supercar Saturday is the first Saturday of the month, starting next month.

Thanks. I knew it looked familiar, especially the Panera. Immediately thought Ogden, but couldn’t narrow it down from there. Is this a weekly C&C? The only C&C I know in the western ‘burbs is Supercar Saturday.

Where on Ogden is this at? I couldn’t recognize it, and I didn’t realize there was a C&C this past weekend. There was a M car meetup and drive in the city that ended in Glenview, but it was thrown off when CPD showed up and started handing out parking tickets at the initial meetup.
