This has the potential to be a real turd.

I see this one retaining or possibly even gaining value. For bike of this vintage, in its condition, I think it’s well worth the price.

Statler Brothers hit song this morning? That don’t bother me at all.

Electrifying in the sense. If you want something literally electrifying, there’s the BMW i8.

Ouch. Any landing you can walk away from...but ouch.

This car is electrifying. The styling, the options, the performance, this looks to be a killer machine!

The fuel tank issue is likely due to either: a.) oversight on the preflight checks, or b.) oversight during normal operations. Some of aircraft have a ‘center’ position if it has a 3-position fuel tank selector; others have a two-position selector. Either way, the pilot forgot about the tank selector - not a good

There seems to be no shortage to add to this list you’ve put together.

Looks like the prop smacked the ground a bit. Oops.

True enough, it’s when I’m not pulling 12K that I feel like I am. That’s (a small part of) why I generally ride a motorcycle.

True. It boggles my mind how many people just seem to not notice the truck, and I mean in the aspect of traffic safety. People will cut then off left and right, or try to change lanes into it, and so on. It’s even worse when toeing.

Interesting exercise in aerodynamic design.

Not a photo of mine, but nearly identical (except mine’s not a King Ranch).

A bit of a long shot, but how about a Bonnie packing a 1050 triple whilst still retaining classic styling?

I’ll have to check out Blake’s 7 sometime, that sounds interesting.

Damn straight they can’t overexert themselves. People can’t be bothered with closing doors themselves at that income level.

I agree, space western would be more accurate.

This was back in 2010. I had a 2004 Mach 1, he had a 2000 M3. Though the interior bits held up better, I would put the 2004 Mach 1 up against the 2000 M3 any day, in terms of performance. Maybe the interior quality wasn’t the best, but the 32V 4.6L under the hood of a 2004 Mach 1 can hold its own.

Agreed. A friend of mine had a 10-year-old M3 and a newer 6-series. Both felt solid, and the interior of the older M had held up quite well, better than even the interior on the Mustang I had at the time.

Awesome design, that door looks heavier than the combined weight of all four doors on my Super Duty. I’d love to see the internal support and hinge mechanism for the door - Rolls Royce isn’t one for under-engineering their coaches.
