While it is true that none of the above defenses will get you out of a ticket, I would argue that if you are going to go to court and fight a speeding ticket, that all of these things should be brought up.

I wish that people here in the US would get failed for not being ready. It would make roads better/safer.

Ha! I actually think a lot of business success comes from that fearlessness. I feel like I have some good ideas, but that I am just way too much of a worrier to go out on my own.

If you try and get a used car loan for six years you will definitely pay a higher rate. But, damn. 14%?!

Don’t worry. He’ll trade it in and take a huge loss way before it gets paid off.

Whoa. Someone advocating personal responsibility? Where am I?

Yeah, glad someone else said it for me. I mean, I would love to have a beer with the guy and talk about his cars (or any cars really) since he genuinely loves them, even more than me certainly.

I had a crap-era 78 Mustang that didn’t even have a pin. The needle just kept going around until it was pointing straight down. Allegedly anyway.

Not to mention that you could design them with holes strategically placed along the “face” of the tread for excellent wet weather driving. Would probably help a lot with hydroplaning. Maybe. I am not an engineer.

By any chance does your bank have a local office? You could have just kept the loan active and made the sale transaction at the local bank office where they would transfer the title to the buyer for you.

Nothing says luxury like stained pine.

If you get extremely popular at doing just about about anything and get a following you can make a good living at it.

Wow. Typing paper. That is a phrase I have not heard in some time. Do writers still use that term?

I’m guessing the NA flat 6’s will still be sold. The turbo 4 will be the entry level.

As someone who traded in his GTI for a Boxster, I have to say that you must not live anywhere that it gets very hot. In the Summer those turbo 4’s lag soooooo bad.

I think that they are envisioning a car rental service using the autonomous cars. Something like a ZipCar or CityBike that you pay for short term use.

Here, in Atlanta, the prices for premium used to be advertised back when the difference between 87 and 93 was only 30¢. Since they all started to hike the prices, they don’t advertise them.

My question about the gas prices is, why is the price premium going so high relative to regular unleaded gas? It used to be within 20¢ of regular, then more recently it went to 30¢ more.

Well, when the original NSX came out, Honda was a lot less beige than they are now. They produced some boring cars that were at least of higher quality than their competition and the Accord of that era handled very well and had a superb manual transmission.

Damn. Sold my GS500 back in 1994 for about a $1000. I have regretted that ever since. This post just reopened some old wounds. I’ll be in the back if anyone needs me.
