meh. That's ipad autocorrect for you. I've done worse.

There are a lot of people with mental illness that fixate on religion no different than other mentally ill people fixate on other paranoid conspiracy theories. Just saying.

Supply and Demand. As with anything, they're worth what someone is willing to pay for it.

The Q7 looks virtually identical to the Q5 which would probably frustrate the hell out of the Q7 buyer who just paid $10k-$15k more.

The target audience for these is the same as the previous generation, or the BMW, Mercedes, Infiniti or Lexus equivalent. Suburban moms with money and no interest in cars other than looking posh. Every time I take my kids to soccer I'm surrounded by these people and my eyes get cramps from all the rolling.

I see a slightly more edgy Outback. Which is what it effectively is.

Holy moly, that looks like the front end off a saturn.

Of course we all know about the Panoz Esperante. A great American-made mid front engined sports car. And we all collectively went WTF!? when Jesse James made one into an airplane on Monster Garage.

Ah, yes, the Isdera Commendatore 112i. The car most of us only know about because of Need for Speed II. I love the way all the body panels open on those.

Man, that sounds like a baby version of a diesel truck. Its neat but it has nothing on the beautiful sound of the last GT. There are a couple GTs that I see and hear by my office occasionally and they have the most beautiful engine note. Its so distinct that you know what it is without even seeing it. The engine

This one little detail to the dashboard has the feel of some old land yacht from the 50s. It feels a little out-of-place but maybe that's what they wanted.

I'm confused. That headline would lead me to believe that 228hp for a starting price of $30,000 is some kind of good deal. Or that 228hp in a car of that type was particularly impressive. It seems to me like the WRX STI or similar would be a better overall deal. Am I missing something?

Uh, I'm gonna call bullshit on that. I'm in an industry which is in or near the top ten for starting salaries with a bachelor's degree in this area. My company is paying ~$55,000-$58,000/yr as a starting salary for entry level just-out-of-college people. Hell, my wife has a masters degree and has been out of school

Don't tell me how to live. On the rare occasion that my car is parked outdoors and is cold I'll damn sure go out and start it and then go back inside for a snack while it idles until the cabin is cozy.

All season tires are perfectly fine for people in southern states that don't get enough snow to justify snow tires. As stated elsewhere, in my area the average January temp is 48° but we'll get one or two snows of a couple inches deep that will stick around for a couple days. I'm happy to willingly drive out in that

Holy crap, you're a jerk about it. All the grief you're getting is deserved.

If you're getting married, it's probably not a big deal once the marriage is official, although doing it expressly for the purposes of helping someone rebuild their credit is a little concerning.

Why would you want to marry or get into a long-term relationship with someone you don't trust? If you're not comfortable sharing finances you probably have some deeper issues that you need to resolve before sharing other commitments.

As with anything, it completely depends on who you are, what your role and your profession are, and what you're trying to get out of networking. I'm usually only looking to network with a very narrow group of people but I get approached by all sorts of people that are of zero interest to me all the time. I get

That's it! The Phoenix is actually a revival of the Mustang II rising from its pinto platform ashes!!!
