Eurovan asking prices have gotten almost as insane as Vanagon prices, and for one of VW’s least reliable platforms. You can get better vans for less money. Heck, you get a JDM HiAce diesel landed in a Wes Coast port for under $10k

I think I was flying the same day as Cyrils-cashmere-sweater-vest. This was 1984 flying TWA back from Europe and JFK had to close because the access roads for the runways were flooded. We got diverted to Hartford,  the diverted again to Philadelphia where,we stood in the,open doors of a 747 like high tech slum…

We learned this from the jihadis who have been killing people with cars for years. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_vehicle-ramming_attacks?wprov=sfla1

I feel like Porsche linked furniture should be from Porsche Design and preferably designed by Butzi himself.  

I am deeply disappointed that the C1 generation Audi 100 was left out. The coupe was a very Italian looking thing that was never imported to the US, and the sedan was almost an alternate universe Mercedes

Tesla has made so many screw-ups I have run out of snarky things to say.

I think I erased that from my brain. 

Good thing Ford has no intentions of relaunching the Ford Torino, Ford Cortina,  and Mercury Milan although the legal fireworks would be fun. I wonder who else named cars after Italian cities? Come to think of it Litespeed bicycles has a few models, and Bianchi could be in trouble since their manufacturing is in Asia. 

I forgot how "through the looking glass" admiralty law is. What I know is straight up US tort law. 

Either the tow truck driver has been binging action movies or this was actually faked for the views. If it was for real, criminal charges and civil suits should follow.  If it was fake they should be punished for endangering others. 

It looks like a slingshot dragster with show car bodywork cool to look at, terrifying to drive since it lacks the dragster's roll cage and race seat with harness.  I'm guessing no fire extinguisher,  scatter shield or anything else to prevent a final ride

How come we are footing the bill and not the shipping company? Their ship broke the bridge, their insurance should pay. We shouldn't add another billion to our budget deficit. 

This has a Spinal Tap 18" Stonehenge vibe. Also I think there were better uses for $400,000 than a mediocre sign.

1st gear Elon learns running a company is hard. Pesky government regulations and unions interfere with grand vision of colonizing Mars, or filling the cities with Teslas

The E39 is a legendary car and I6 with a 5 speed is a great combo but not $15,000 worth of great. Also never going to be an investment at that price. An E39 M5 might be an investment.  ND

Is that car actually for sale? I live in Bend.  

The three craziest racing classes in terms of performance for era and unfortunately risk to driver were definitely the 750kg Formula, original Can Am, and Group B rally. While some 60s and 70s sports prototypes and F1 got sketchy none had quite the margin of raw power over everything else 

There are good GMT400 trucks at decent prices out there, this is not one of them ND

That's right up there with Peter Wheeler's dog styling the TVR Chimaera

So far this is vaporware,  and the concept is dubious.  $300,000 is house money and I think the market of tech bros doing #vanlife is approaching saturation. I suppose they could sell to lesser plutocrats as an alternative to an apocalypse bunker
