A good friend of mine just leased an Infiniti. I told her I’d go with her to make sure she got a good deal, but her and her mom went over and started working with a salesman. When I finally got there, I noticed they had included wheel locks for $265 on the price sheet. I let the salesman know that she didn’t need them…

This is great. This article and all of the comments made me laugh!

I’m planning to head to the drag strip in November and can’t wait.

This is great!

I was just going to say there was a guy at my high school who had one. This was in 2005.

Lexus of Glendale and Mossy in San Diego do this, unfortunately.

Some luxury car dealerships will deliver cars to the customer, though this service is usually reserved for only the high-end buyers.

SoCal Edison does something like this too. It's easy if you have a Nest, as it will notify you the day before and then auto adjust on the day.

I used to think these were dumb until I had a ‘13 Edge. It was nice to be able to lock the keys in the car while going on a run, the beach, a hike, etc. The best part was that when I sold it to CarMax(!), the MyFordTouch system wouldn’t remove my code (even though it said it had). Somewhere around the LA area, there’s…

I swear I remember a friend’s mom’s Nissan Maxima having a keypad too. Back in the ‘90s.

Was not disapoint.

I was watching this on the news on Friday and the best part was when they mentioned that they were going to reach out to the Audi dealer because it only had dealer plates. Because they only sold one of those right?

I would have just assumed they were on their way to a donut sale!

It’s not a West Coast accent. It’s just not an accent period. Like the people on the news. Or in every other commercial.

I had something very similar happen to me. I was waiting at a red light to turn left one morning, when all of a sudden I felt a bump from behind. I got out and asked the guy what had happened since we had both been stopped for a while and he, very sleepily, replied that he hit the gas by mistake. The only “damage” was…

I’ve been seeing these commercials recently and waiting for a Jalopnik post. Was not disappointed.

Reporter: Do you have it on your car?
Lil Sis: Yeah I got it on my car!
Reporter: It was being installed on their car.

That was for the one used in III since it was on a custom chassis for the off road scenes.

I was helping a classmate find her car and asked her what we were looking for. “A Honda Avalon”. My response, “I’m not sure we’re going to find it.”

I’ve had the oposite experience. They all seem to be base models with halogen lights. Some lady at work has one that’s so base model, it doesn’t even have the engine designation.
