Again, no narcotics were found. And as the TV station reports, there were several problems with the warrant, including the fact that it was not valid in the county where the searches were performed and that it expired three hours before the procedures began.

Of all his ventures he said: "Whatever money I lost, it was always mine. And in the end, I've come out way ahead.

The greater cause? Poor management, in this reporter's eyes. After losing his deputy, Nissan Renault CEO Carlos Ghosn now has to face the company's myriad problems alone.

At the point I'd buy an Icon, I'd already have a 911 in my garage or, more likely, a Cayman with substantial modifications.

So again: Can Icon sustain their business model?

They don't write off the loss, they apply the lessons learned on their flagship cars to their lower end models. That's the way it's happened with pretty much every major development in car technology for decades. Things like ABS systems get implemented on the most expensive models and refined and, as more of those…

Then you wouldn't understand how inane that question is, in addition to being unqualified and thus vague.

People keep focusing on how much VW loses on each one sold vs the production costs, as if VW/Audi/Porsche/Bentley learned absolutely nothing from the R&D of the car that could be applied across multiple lines of their portfolio. It's like focusing only on how much revenue the American space program produces and…

What are you? A freshman in business school or something?

You decide!

You want the bottom line? Most people are finding a way to sell cars in the U.S. (well, not VW) and those who venture to China are also hotly fighting over the market. Chrysler is doing well. Ford is doing well. Honda is doing well. We expect that Nissan and Toyota, when they announce, are doing well. Hyundai has been…

I'm sure there are other worthy reasons to recommend a 944 that escape me at the moment, but rest assured—those are all perfectly good reasons to direct your problem child to a 944. The less mechanically inclined someone is, the more fitting an answer "944" will be.

This. Is jalopnik now trying to score new subscribers to consumer reports?

Their source for statistics and opinions come from a bunch of, primarily old, people that don't necessarily understand what the hell is going on at any given moment, particularly when it is in relation to a car or problems associated with cars. I'd suggest consumer reports to someone that was a dullard, but not to…

When your gwagen breaks up in the mountains, no one will have parts for it though.

Apparently, many people disagree. Put some 24"s on that crappy old camaro to show all the hoes how much money you got!

I never said the morally correct thing to do was to not help, but you advocated taking extraordinary action to stop the driver and, when it comes down to it, I'm not going to take the legal risk of dragging a person that is struggling against me out of a car in the middle of traffic unless I'm clearly legally…

1) You're an idiot

Geee, you must be right. The people in traffic should have leapt from their cars and restrained someone that is an unknown quantity. Or, they should have anticipatorilly pulled in front of a car that was stopped on the side of the road just in case the driver was high. Take notice citizens, you're going to have to…

The amount of naivety in this thread is astounding.
