Yeah, let’s blame it on those pesky millenials! Let’s not blame it on a range of motorcycles where the lightest weighs as much as the Death Star, the cheapest is still fucking expensive, the most powerful couldn’t pull the dick off a chocolate mouse, the most sporty has the dynamic prowess of a bag of shot badgers and…

Good.

Neutral: Would You Buy A New Harley If You Had The Money?

I’d daily a DAF anyday.

Driving over those tubes causes additional resistance against the tires of the passing cars? That resistance would cause those cars to spend more energy to maintain speed.

I know the answer and I own a fucking BMW.

Didn’t say exactly that. Just than IMO drinking, eating and driving is not necessary and may become dangerous, while a 10 minutes break for a GOOD coffee is priceless. Because we live only once.

Ah, yes. Italians :) I love you guys. My '92 Alfa Romeo 164-S had no cup holders, two ashtrays and no clock. You folks really do have your priorities straight (I no longer smoke, but I know how it is...)

I’ve driven in Italy before...it demands all of your attention unlike here in the states. Everyone thinks the Italians are crazy drivers, but they’re quite good - just quick and the roads are rather small.

Here in Italy, we do not need cupholders. We like our espresso coffee in the little ceramic cup and we drink it at the bar, straight from a nice coffee machine. Nobody here likes to carry in his car the take-away pint of tinted water that you call coffee . When we drive, we usually do not drink and the only thing I…

For instance,…

Wholeheartedly. Alpina has always been about substance over style, and the idea that their customers are just getting them for bragging rights - when 99 out of 100 people wouldn’t know it was more than just a regular BMW - is nonsense.

Haha I’ll admit to rolling with the stereotype of M buyers just buying the car because it’s the most expensive model, however all Alpina owners I’ve talked to chose that car in particular because they’re gearheads.

That’s called a catastrophic electrical failure. One of the rods jumped out of the block and cut a wire.

CP, not when this IS STILL FOR SALE at half the price.

you spelled Ford and Excrement wrong.
