Lucky for you you had some fellow Jalops to scout out some cars. Albeit they were losers (the cars, not the Jalops), I know it helped you to have a set of eyes physically look at the physical car. And lucky for you in the end it seems you found a reputable online "importer" to help you track down the car you wanted.…

I've never looked into wrapping, but it may be a necessary expense. It seems like the higher, more exclusive trim levels have fewer and fewer color choices. Maybe they don't want to stock a bunch of paint colors for a car they're not going to sell a lot of. Who knows.

Four color choices only? Gray, black, white, and (not this shade of) blue.

I definitely agree with your comment about long-haul trucking. I-85 is CLOGGED with trucks in and around Charlotte. And it gets worse when it drops from 8 lanes to 4 lanes and truckers have no problem hogging the hammer lane trying to pass other truckers over the course of 2 miles.

Drivers in Omaha are inept enough as it is. More drivers would not help.

And you'd think after five Forza games that the AI wouldn't brake-check for no reason and wouldn't let first place get 10 seconds ahead because they're all too busy running into each other.

Gorgeous scenery and consistently insane racing: what more could you want? Truly one of America's greatest racetracks.

My childhood friend's dad had a white one.

Five kids and four dogs? Jesus. I'd go insane.

Izuzu Amigo!

I'll have to choose my parents' cars from my childhood. Granted some of these cars are 20+ years old, but it goes without saying that you (I) never see these anymore.

Damn, why did I not think of Beetle until now?!

Is the regenerative coasting (whatever you call it) more noticeable compared to the RWD Model S?

Let's hope you don't pull out a strike!

Sounds like a good QOTD

Will I get in trouble if I swap in Euro style headlights on my 04 S60R (i.e. Without the "egg yolk" amber reflectors)?

So he didn't earn it?

I wonder how many of those "miles" were spent sitting stationary in a cloud of smoke

I imagine most everyone will wonder why you're using that car to deliver mail.

I'm keeping my fingers crossed that importing a car from Japan is like the Suntory commercial scene from Lost In Translation.
