I had a Procharger supercharger kit that I was on the verge of installing when I decided as soon as modify it I’m bound to break something and just frustrate myself. My bearings survived track days.

Used the have one of these in red. Hated the notch-back when I bought it, loved it by the time I sold it. Absolutely bulletproof car, I drove this thing at 10/10th every time I got in it, and I didn’t have any unscheduled maintenance over 7 years of owning it.

I had a 2001 final year 740i with the M parrallels (not full M-sport). I thought it was the BEST looking BMW ever made. Mine was black on tan, but I had window regulators stocked up in the back, and could swap the entire cooling system in about 30-40 minutes. Also fun fact - water cooled alternator. Parts are cheaper…

Yeah I knew that. But 55k on an R8 is the normal car equivalent of 550k given that a quick view of other listings show many with ultra-low miles.

Honestly 62k for a 55k mile Audi is generous.

I have a set of Piloti’s. They’re SFI rated. For when I race and catch on fire. Are you trying to explain that the non-fire Piloti is for poseurs?

I’ve been an Extra 300L a bunch of times... the first time I was literally motion sick for 24 hours. After a while your body understands that the 5G+ could be the new normal....

I thought he had a little red corvette?

This is an absolutely terribly boring video. Nine minutes and thirty two seconds for something I could’ve interpreted in 3 seconds with a spreadsheet.

Do you mean AC Cowlings?

We should also get a list of cars that rarely made close to their rated figures:

They should just make the purchase-buyback location as far away as possible and get him to drive to Germany since it doesn’t specify a buyback location...

Here’s the VIN they did it too in case anyone was watching. Saw it @ Manheim where notes were “Extreme Abuse”. ZFF67NFA9A0175885

I didn’t like Miatas. Then I bought a hardtop Turbo version with 225whp. I love Miata.

I wrote about this exact same phenomenon...

CTS-V and the M3 suck. Really they do. They’re just the best compromise when the problem is: Find me a singular car that occupies 1 garage space thats both sporty and practical. What you’re left with is a big heavy, oafy, bloated piece of $hit that’s neither that sporty nor comfortable and practical. Furthermore, I…

This is ridiculous. Tell this woman to take some personal responsibility. This would be the same as suing a bank that I robbed because the money they had in the safe-deposit box was too tempting.

I did THIS EXACT SAME THING and already blogged about it. And I fixed it myself in 2 days. http://oppositelock.kinja.com/public-service…

Why? Mechanical Grip is ridiculously high, it understeers at the limit, its really not bad to drive quickly at all. I had a C5 Z06 that would whip the tail around more readily despite the traction controls best efforts. Here’s me @ Laguna Seca
