Roadkill and Dirt Every Day are totally what I always thought having a car in the US would be like. And I really like their 'let's do it because it may be possible'-attitude.

I guess it's rather about us europeans wearing slim fit shirts instead of rather 'baggy' US shirts.

The new beetle / Golf mk4 are some kind of double entry, aren't they? It's the same platform, quality and drivability issues should be the same. The Cadillac Catera, or the Opel Omega, was ok besides the rust, maybe not Cadillac badge worthy, but far from a worst car list entry. The Smart 42 is by no means unusably…

They are almost common here, but I can't recall having seen one with the roof totally down or even pillars removed. It's a shame that people spend money for convertibles and so rarely convert.

Be it turbocharged or not, this exhaust sounds as straight six as it can get. If there is a decent intake noise at the front, I don't see a reason to complain about this concept at all. Before M street cars where even a thing, BMW made the wonderful 2002 turbo. So it's as classic in lay out as it can be considering…

That's what I thought, too, while watching. But living in Germany, I didn't actually need to watch, people throw firecrackers and what not on every goal. So I always can figure out what's going on.

I guess he has the wisdom and experience that you can travel all day long on an unrestricted road and still get killed in a 70mph zone or whatever violating speed limits.

Even if they hit somebody before, there is no reason for people to block the road. It happens here (Germany) as well, mostly not as crowded as in this video. But it incredibly annoying, when for no obvious reason people are allowed to block roads (as a crowd or in cars with people hanging from open doors, people…

This set up seems to be an highway only set up. It doesn't cover situations like parking in tight spaces, driving narrow streets and as somebody pointed out, looking back when you open the door.

My first lesson was on the streets aswell, the very first 30 minutes even on snow and ice. It was both fun and educating. It was a quiet area though. In the end I had to drive the car back through afternoon traffic. I thought I was a pro already, because Driving school cars here have to have pedals for the instructor…

Those claimed times posted by manufacturers seem to be always way optimistic compared to what magazines like sport auto can do. I read this magazine for quite a few years, they never could match the claimed times, even though their Nürburgring guy, Horst von Saurma, has much experience on that and other tracks even…

Actually I trust this magazines laptimes more then the marketing laptimes posted by the manufacturers. Back in the day the first Nissan GTR they raced around the 'ring it was much slower then Nissans claimed time. Still incredibly fast though.

I'm not sure if this actually failed. It was one of the cars that made people visit a BMW dealer in those days and maybe buying a 3 or 5 series. It did alot for the brand appeal, maybe similar to what the i8 does today.

The 80's 3-series BMWs (e30) had no coupe version. It was what BMW called a 2 door saloon, because it has the same roofline and therefore shape as the 4door car. The M3 version had a slightly different roof around the rear window though.

Actually the A10 goes all around Berlin, 192km of road I wouldn't use for high speed runs.

Also the cornering light things in Mercs and others, using fog lights when you turn the steering wheel or turn on the indicator. It still looks like broken fog light to me.

That blue car is a BMW Z4 GT3 or whatever they call the GT3 version. The other one is the Audi R8 (almost wrote TT) from Nicky Thiim.

Actually the guys at a German performance car magazine (sport auto, I think) usually get their best lap times on normal/comfort setting of suspension. Specially on the Nürburgring, but also on other rather flat tracks. I also think it was Clarkson, who tested the new GTI and said the sport mode is pointless bcs it was…

I think they could easily have hidden this attachtment hole behind the grill and made the grill detachable. Every modern car I can think of, has the attachment thingies behind blind caps on the bumpers to make it look smooth. So Alfa could have easily masked this in a way or another.

I doubt he went into the opposing lane. The Mazda was about halfway on the line, when the crash happened, and the Lambo "kinda" squeezed through.
