Hot, Mr. Car. Just assume I’m always hot.

How does it know what I think is optimal temperature? What if I want to be very cold? Or very hot? Maybe I want my feet to be warmer than the rest of my body? My body comes with highly adaptable and personalized versions of these sensors from the factory. Just give me a temp setting and I’ll handle it.

I have a W124 250D. It’s a great car and it has been incredibly reliable in the 6-7 years I’ve had it, just like the W124 300D I had for 5 years before that. Which isn’t bad for a car that turned 30 this year and has been a daily driver all its life. Both with 300K+ miles on them too. The 300 breezed through two…

I mean... A small block getting curb stomped by a big block shouldn’t come as much of a surprise. Bring on the 429 BOSS for the LS6. They were and are not even in the same league. The Chevelle LS6 also cost around $2000 more than the BOSS 302 which was priced in the high $3000's (Both depending on other options).…

Too many.

If a game this short doesn’t warrant a second run through it they definitely did something wrong. Perhaps the developer should consider an animated short film on YT next time around?

Oh absolutely. There will never be cars that light again. The old one was a paper mache death trap whereas the 2016 is not. Still fun though. The original was 1786lbs according to wikipedia. Presumably with the spare wheel, jack and tiny steelies still in place. Possibly slightly more for the US version with it’s huge…

The old Camaro SS with a 350 was never a particularly fast car though, not even for its day. It basks in the glory of the big blocks, but it does not share their performance. A 1990 Mustang GT is 0.1 seconds faster than a 1968 Camaro SS396 to 60. The 1990 Camaro a whopping second slower than its older brother and,…

You are correct sir. I was thinking of the mk4. The 2.0 is a totally different from the 1.8T indeed and has lots of potential. I just really hate the 1.8T. I know they’ve been making effort to make it lighter, but the Golf is already too fat starting at Mk2, so the fact the 7 lost weight over the 5 and 6 doesn’t quite…

Pretty much the response I gave my old ISP. They shut off my internet and sent me an enormous bill because 5 months earlier I had missed $3 on a bill. No letters, no calls, no e-mails. Nothing. A typo on my side, no doubt, but every bill before and after that one was paid in full and on time.

Every successful F1 driver have dick moves on their repertoire. My “favorite”:

I’m 100% sure there are paparazzi pictures out there somewhere, those are the worst kind of humans. But no media outlets are buying or publishing them and that’s a good thing. Leave them alone.

You’ve only had the good ones then. Mk1 was great fun, mk2 was similar but fatter and worse because of it, though not all bad, mk3 and 4 were a waste of production capacity. Mk5 is when they finally started to realize that they can’t keep adding weight without adding power, but they did it with an engine that is okay…

Back when I started getting into driving, around 20 years ago, these cars were 30 years old and still among the fastest non-exotics ever made. The import scene was getting there, but there wasn’t much competition unless some serious money was spent on them. They were quick for their day, as you said, but what you…

One thing I wouldn’t expect is much of a substantive update on Schumacher’s health.

As much as I agree with everything you’re saying, a turn signal might have prevented this incident. It’s safety equipment that should be used just like seat belts. Seat belts are not a guarantee either, but it sure helps prevent injury 90% of the time. Chances are it’d still end up similar to this, but signaling…

The Germans are still doing this though. Their technology is unmatched. While it works...

Hugo Boss! Nice hat.

No worries about that. They didn’t actually make beetles during the war, they just convinced people to pay for them without ever delivering a single vehicle while funneling the money into their war efforts.
