Yeah, The Rock really was the high point of his career I think. The action was over the top but still comprehensible, Cage was just the right level of crazy, Connery was Connery and brought the class, and Harris's villain was an actual character with clear (and essentially relatable - he was angry about how veterans…

I really dislike the growing trend of just sticking an exposed touch screen onto the dash.

Most importantly, the research was done sans pants.

Hah yeah, that "More please" sentiment is actually one of the reasons I haven't gone to a track yet because I know that once I start I won't be able to stop. I really want to get out there but I also want to make sure I'm financially stable to responsibly manage the maintenance and upkeep that tracking will require.…

I love this thing. Like you said, it's a bit down on power compared to 911's and such, but it more than makes up for it in handling and feel. Besides, you can get one of these Cayman S's close to base 911 power (~350 hp for this generation) pretty easily via exhaust, header, plenum and ECU tune if you want to stay…

Reminds me a bit of what happened when I bought my Cayman. I know how to drive stick but hadn't done so in years, maybe a decade, so of course a couple of friends insisted on coming with me to film as I was pulling out of the lot to take it for a test drive, hoping for a stall to plaster all over the internet.

Seriously. Those guys around the 2:00 mark would be in such a bad way during a shunt...

Hah, that's the first thing I thought of too.

On a somewhat related note, does anyone have any idea if there are any Cayman spec series around in the vein of the IMSA Porsche GT3 Cup series?

"Every man at some point in his life is gonna lose a battle. He's gonna fight and he's gonna lose. But what makes him a man, is that in the midst of that battle he does not lose himself."

My train of thought for this photo is as follows:

I'll do you one better. The TPMS on my car died so went to my local Porsche service department to get a quote on replacing them. I didn't bring up MaxCare as I figured it's a battery that lasted 7 years and was thus a consumable so not covered. Being more on the Doug side of mechanical ability, I'd been to the dealer…

That adaptive light setup is ridiculous in the most delightful way.

Yes, but by nature the market has been and always will be shortsighted.

Bah, California Burritos... Carne Asada Fries are where it's at!

I'm pretty sure you've discovered this by now, but I figured I'd make it clear for people that read this but might not have logged back into the game yet: pressing F once on a chest or whatnot still just brings up the loot menu. Pressing F again takes everything in the menu, which is new. You can still scroll around…

At every light, the guy next to you will ask what it cost. At every gas station, a guy in a Chevy pickup will come over and ask if you "wanna trade?" People will want to take pictures of it, next to it, and in it. Kids want you to rev so they can put a video on YouTube. And no matter where you drive it, everyone goes…

... Dangah Zone!!

The fact that someone, somewhere can seriously say "Corvette? Nah, I'd rather take the Camaro to the track" makes me weirdly happy...

My Rogue, inspired by Bioshock's Elizabeth just because...
