Ugh, and the '99 VR-4 too! I had a '95 n/a 3000GT five speed, base model(so no sunroof and no silly exhuast cutoff) somehow optioned up to have charcoal grey leather, caracas red, with Epic Impeller chrome rims that made the car. Sitting in that driver's seat was like sitting in a jet cockpit. A VR-4 was my dream…

You do understand that these are the gummi bears with the additive that will basically make you shit your pants, right?

You can ask him questions and not get spit on, just don't ask him a question that damn stupid.

It'd be nice, but you know every legislator with a car manufacturing plant in their state would be pressured by the car companies to come out against it.

There was a petition to repeal the 2 year import ban on Whitehouse.gov that didn't even get the necessary signature threshold to elicit a response from the whitehouse.

Uh, he's clearly laughing his fucking ass off.

I'm not a lawyer yet, but I know some good ones. He stacnes it, you kill him, and we'll work out some pro bono representation.

I prefer stick shifts for the experience, but I wouldn't turn down an automatic supra turbo.

So hitting 125+ in the blink of an eye is boring?

Many of the autos can be sent off to be converted to manual, at the Aston Factory even, but, of course, you're going to pay for that privilege. Seeing Astons at prices like this further convinces me that I'll have one in my stable in the future.

Wow. This looks like a shitty minivan. Even the horrific initial Bentley SUV design looked better than this.

The volt is a lot bigger, and I prefer the design of the i3 for a car of that sort (I mean, if I'm going to live in the future, I want to feel like I'm living in the future!), but the Volt is also a compelling option and you can fit enough shit in it to really take a road trip.

Ah, so you could do a road trip and you wouldn't use a lot of fuel, but you would have to stop a bunch. Poop. I;d really like to see a version with a larger fuel tank hidden somewhere in there. Starting with a full tank and a full battery and being able to go at least a couple hundred miles would make it a must buy…

Hang on. Are we talking range before refuel? Honestly, the i3 may be a compelling option for me in the future as a runabout alternative to the luxobarges and offroad vehicles in intend to own (not to mention sports cars) but, as I live in Alabama now and like to be able to jaunt down to the beach, and intend to move…

My first car was a '88 coupe in white, with a tan leather interior and alloy wheels that were stock split five spokes with white paint on the outside of the spokes (that I never saw on another legend.) It was, to my recellection, the first car offered in the US with an in dash CD player, which mine had. It was fast,…

You're undereducated on these cars is the point. Automatics are often more desirable in these because the auto trans models hold the boost and keep the turbo spooling when it shifts rather than venting on the shift and having to spool up all over again. This lets you lay down some blistering quarter mile times and…

Yeah, it's all about performance/budget. Some folks don't have the extra scratch to future proof when they need to buy a new card to play current games, and there's nothing wrong with that. I try and buy to get as much playable time out of my system as I can. I'm still astounded how well my Q9550 has held up. On…

I need more VRAM because I got one of the 2560x1440 korean monitors back when they were sub $300 shipped. I need a better video card but, then again, my whole system needs an overhaul because I'm still running a Q9550 that I got a screaming deal on, with 4 gigs of ram and a GTX 670.

Cars Don't Immediately Fall Apart Anymore - The era of planned obsolescence is over. Cars are getting older every year and are sold with increasingly better warranties. While this does create a negative equity situation for much of the loan (cars depreciate quickly), a seven-year loan matched with a seven-year…

I bring up the Kingdome, Bret, because you live in Seattle, home of 947 days a year of light mist. So trust me when I tell you that, for a daily driver, you want a roof. Not only that, you want a sturdy roof, a strong roof, a robust roof; the kind of roof manufactured by a Swedish car company known for producing…
