I thought tiny-ass bag (not on Youtube, but available as a clip on the NBC site) was surprisingly quite funny...

Here’s a suggestion to deal with unruly passengers: As soon as the doors of the plane close and all the passengers are in their seats, as reported by the crew, the pilots flood the inflight cabin with xenon, a noble gas which is an anesthetic with no side effects. Everybody will sleep like babies for the duration of…

They sold the S213 E450 Station Wagon, which has the same inline-6 as the E53, just in a detuned form, but still pretty powerful. There’s a bunch of used ones in the market now, but they tend to be overpriced.

This sparked some morbid curiosity on what an orange first-gen Q45 would have looked like. This ignominious thing is all I could find, and now I’ve thrown up a bit in my mouth...

The CLE is a good-looking design, and the flared arches here give it a nice stance, though the overall design for the AMG version ends up being a bit over the top. However, the C-Class interior and platform, and the conspicuous presence of B pillars really render it as not a viable replacement for the outgoing E-Class…

Very astute observation. Reminds me of some program notes for the 2nd movement of Shostakovich’s 10th symphony (which Shostakovich claimed to be a portrait of Stalin’s violent rule over the USSR). The notes stated that the syncopated chords at the beginning symbolize Stalin crushing Russians under his boot. Perhaps…

At least here they were acting out of stupidity.

Mah mah, they pahk’ed the cah in the wrang yahd. Not smaht!

Totally agree, but it’s not easy to find a $200k vehicle that is truly about sporty utility and not some cynical profit cash cow like the SUVs from Porsche, Bentley, Rolls-Royce, and Ferrari are (though the Purosangue is actually a pretty design).

Not sure anyone bought a Ferrari FF either (never seen one in the wild I can remember). I would argue finding someone to pay 5-figure+ numbers for ugly-designed cars is part of it, but then Mansory still exists, so who knows...

Oh, I had not come across a Boston Legal reference in quite a while! Quite remarkable how a show where just about all the characters were assholes (even Betty White’s!) was so eminently watchable and entertaining...

By that logic, and given that Stellantis has doomed Lancia to the most ignominious of zombie deaths, you just threw Lancia out of the window as a contender. This obsolete horrid garbage is the only thing currently sold new in the world that has the Lancia scudetto adorning it.

David Craig? Perhaps you mean Craig David? Or perhaps an obscure sibling of weight loss guru Jenny Craig’s husband? ;-)

I’d get some popcorn and watch Musk and Ye duke it out on accusations of plagiarism. 

Obviously Lancia, even the boys agree.

And of course fox “news” found an expert with “credible” sources claiming it was a terrorist attack. Another valuable contribution to making “fox news” the greatest known oxymoron in the English language.

Heard on CNN around 11 pm Eastern that it was a Bentley indeed, which is now also on the website, so I’m glad my vehicular pattern recognition from this one frame did not fail me...

If it’s confirmed, they beat Thelma and Louise for luxury on their way to the pearly gates, though it’s hard to say for sure if the huge acceleration was intentional.

Looks like some expensive car, like a Bentley Continental GT (it definitely has a panoramic glass roof), but could also be a Ford Mustang or Chevy Camaro (which are sold with those glass roofs) with a lot of horsepower, or one of the German coupes from Mercedes or BMW.

Related to the present lack of character of gas stations, this one in Cloquet, Minnesota, was designed by Frank Lloyd Wright and it remains in operation since 1959 to today.
