@FLB: Aside from Lotus (obviously), it seems like Audi is the only one making any kind of effort in that regard.

@beercheck: No. It's kinda like that black alien goo in that really bad Spiderman movie. You touch it, and it takes over your soul.

@Dwegmull, preview free since March 2009.: What? A station wagon? Where?

@FLB: They haven't blocked SpeedHD.

Damn. I need a smoke. About 100 lbs less weight than my car, but about twice the horsepower. Do. Want.

@Ray Wert: He's right, you know. And if I have kids, I'm never letting them anywhere near Uncle Ray.

I stayed up to watch this last night... and I might have to watch the qualifying tonight. I had complained that F1 had gotten boring and tedious... but with the new rules on tires, there actually could be enough excitement to make it worth watching this year.

@Ash78: And, if it all goes wrong, you've got all that glass to stop your slide!

I was walking into WalMart (I know, I know) yesterday in my "SAVE GM" t-shirt, and the elderly old greeter there commented on it. "Save GM? How are we supposed to do that? Buy their cars?"

"Twitter is for the pedophiles that can't stomach the long hours on MySpace."

@Graverobber: You just got a little sampling of what it's like trying to deal with the Government of Canada.

@boosted-lego-wagon -> now boosted to 350hp: Clearly I read that wrong. I think I got part of an earlier comment mixed with yours, implying that the women were like a Mercedes-Benz for the reason you stated.

@Leeeeena the Jalopchick: Don't agree. I prefer something left to the imagination.

@boosted-lego-wagon -> now boosted to 350hp: Clearly you've been married.

Mmmm. Bouncing up and down on horseback.

@Ash78: Much like how Cadillac is just a Chevy with more chrome and leather? I think of it the other way around. Since most technology comes out for Bentley or Audi first, a Passat is a discount Audi.

@Duke engineerd von Prandtl: Good to see I can go away for a few days and come back to discover that Ash is still maintaining his monopoly over COTDs.

@Mobius_1: Clearly Graverobber slots in just beneath Murilee. Not only is he a sexy bitch, but he has the added benefit of being a longstanding member of the Commentariat. That's worth a good 50% boost to his sex-appeal rating right there.

@sub-$3K luxury rides are expendable: As someone who used to wear a suit every day, I learned there's actually a science to it, specifically in matching the cut of the tie and the type of knot used to the style of the suit. For instance, in Roy's case, he has a single breasted suit with low shoulders and very wide…

@pauljones: It depends on the beard. Didn't you see those photos of Wes at the Shelby Mustang event? Notice he was the only one macking up the sole lady at the event?
