The was the silica deposits paint the airflow density on that final picture is morbidly beautiful.

Anyone who's taken note of VW's performance in Dakar shouldn't be TOO surprised to find they're responsible for something like this.

@jayntampa: They did make a Doom board game and it's damn good.

This is an awfully complicated rationale for Epic not wanting to make twice as many animations. Just take that article about "why there are no women in Crackdown 2" and apply it here.

What if you provide them with the LHD G8? Seems like that could cut the cost down. Hell, I'm sure there are plenty of people out there who could just have all the bits drop-shipped to them and built it themselves.

@sp00nix SHIFT_: It did, if only in an Einsteinian, relativistic sense.

@Møbius: That's my point - for the people that CAN afford all three cars, reviews are inconsequential.

@Møbius: Do people with that kind of money actually comparison shop? Do they read reviews? Do they check Edmunds? I really suspect not.

@leavethegun-takethecannoli: I'd imagine that a Buick would be old enough to be safe.

@Flathead Smith and the Screaming Straight Pipes: Option 8: Install a camera in each Toyota that points down at the pedals.

It's a bit sad, but I don't think I'll have a more exciting nine contiguous minutes in my life and that guy was still as cool as a cucumber.

@GreenN_Gold: Yeah, it's hard to concisely communicate "I'm not some smug street racer, I'm just a car guy who wants to hear 500 Italian ponies going at it like Armageddon is coming" or "no, I'm not trying to race you, I'm driving fast so I can catch up with you and gawk at your awesome car".

@Scandinavian Flick: Psh. You're just pulling those numbers out of your ass.

@Møbius: And we all know what happened last time Japan and Germany teamed up against us.

@Turbineguy - now with reheat!!: That's why I don't tell my girlfriend what my forum name is.

@GreenN_Gold: What were you in? I once had a stock Focus try and race me from a light and he was two car lengths ahead before I even realized that was what he was doing. If it was an Evo or a Mustang I'd have expected something, but when your car obviously outclasses theirs, it doesn't seem to even serve the silly…

Wait, so you're investigating a crime you (the player) already know the solution to and you can kill off a character that may have survived the subsequent events in the later game? How can it feel dramatic when it's literally a pocket universe?

@mikeyyc: I think that crosses the line from doublespeak to triplespeak.

@Skunky: I know the stock Escudo was rubbish, but I still have dreams of having one with the pike's peak bodykit and some proper grunt under the hood.

@SouthernerISuppose: I don't know the exhaustive details, but several laws and statues apply differently to people under 18 in the US - that's why the parents are responsible for damages and such caused by minors, for example. Also, unemancipated minors may not enter into legally binding contractual agreements, which…
