I read an article in Indy Star that I-65 from Indy to Chicago is one of the deadliest highways in the US and the worst in Indiana. INDOT doesn't know what to do about it. Speeding isn't the issue from one of their studies. It's run-offs and sudden traffic jams that are the problem.

It's an improvement in the same sense as the plain jane girl in 6th girl being "hotter" than the ugly one with buck teeth and lopsided tits. Certainly less personality and much more forgettable, but easier on the eyes.

FYI, Google Chrome is the ONLY browser that I've ever been able to use Kinja on without issue. And that's only sometimes.

BMW does underrate engines, but not by 100 HP. And that almost never applies to their M models. They intentionally underrate their regular models to give the Ms more prestige. Everyone knows the 335i is making closer to 330 HP than the advertised 300, because the M3 needs to have at least 100 more horsepower to seem…

Very pretty. I like how they managed to give it a sleek roofline while adding that sharp corner in the window to keep the design edgy. The rear is much improved over the sedan

I just read the 428i was clocked at 0-60 in 5.1 seconds by Edmunds. No shit this much lighter, more powerful car with the same transmission will be under 5.

I'm going to add mixing tires to this mix. I had 2 of my winter tires slashed last year and put two Bridgestone Potenzas I had laying around on the front of my BMW and the Nokian snow (read tractor) tires on the rear.

The E39 has a great interior. Super German and super easy to use. I upgraded to a newer nav system with Bluetooths and whatnot.

That's not much more than you'd pay for a stock SS in that condition.

Let me try to justify what BMW is doing here.

I imagine they're making both variants

BMW is getting zany!

They should go one step further and ban all travelling in the passing lane unless your passing or theres heavy traffic.

Greatest memory of my life was flogging a brand new Astra Turbo rental to an inch of its life on the Nurburgring. Went back the next day to Sixt and exchanged it for a brand new 118i... When I was 19.

It is tragic, but should someone that unstable be driving a car? Granted he could have just forgotten his medication that day.

Not completely unlikely. I've heard stories of people deflating spare, putting in plastic bottles of "contraband" in a tire, taping it to the wheel, and sealing it back up with just enough air to seat the beads. It's airtight and you can't check it on the side of the road, without the officer significantly risking…

One time an officer pulled me over in Chicago for a faulty tail light. I changed the bulb in front of him in about 30 secs to avoid getting written up. Upon seeing the aluminum brief case (tool chest) in my truck along with some suspicious compartments (the battery box, trunk mounted tool box and spare tire well…

Anyone know why you're allowed to park just about anywhere in Chicago with your hazards on? And where else does this trick work?

Exactly. I know they need more space, but there have been times I'm travelling 80+ in the passing lane, and as soon as a gap opens, a truck going 60 will cut me off to take it, so he can pass another truck by traveling 61 MPH...
