Lexus has always been about American sales. I'm kind of surprised Toyota bothers selling under that brand in Europe. Everything about the brand screams American driver... softish handling, chromey features, silent interior, V8s and V6s, expensive hybrids, numb steering, pudgy styling, automatic transmissions for…

Wonder if Papa pried himself from barstool at La Floridita long enough to see the race. I kind of doubt it.

Wouldn't Motors Insurance be better off hiring 20,000 employees, declaring bankruptcy, and then asking for government assistance?

Republicans apologize to no one. Except BP.

The Matador quits. First flight out.

They are also going to make somebody famous pay dearly for having horrible sex with their women.

Random thought: just how wrong would an ES350 Nurbürgring edition be?

The real problem is trying to unstick the wheel lugs that some grease monkey torqued on with an air wrench at your last garage service. Considering that factory supplied crowbar is usually made of pot metal, it's a much more annoying task than jacking the car.

Wish we could have seen the navigator's face when Petter hopped in the navi seat and held the map upside down while frowning.
