Turning the ignition while the engine is already running.

I love that D8 GTO with the hardtop, it looks bonkers and sounds wonderful.

They sell so many, it's massively popular in metro areas. The Smart Electric Drive however, is a rare duckling. The second gen (post the first 100 cars) were full of Tesla tech (or Musk magic) before "Model S" and the third gen (post the first 2100 cars) went to bed with the Bosch R&D department. 0 - 60 in 5 sec too :)

Even in Euroland the G60 and VR6 variants were as rare as myrh. Great looking cars though.

probably leftovers from the fiat merger excitement... nobody buys Jeeps in Italy, terrible economy and emissions compared to what Italians prefer in that price range.

that bottom row is a near personalised automotive orgasm fest for me (excl the blue zonda).

yep, they also made some for male prostitutes (homosexual) near Amsterdamse bos in the nineties as they were a bit in danger in the actual "bos" (forrest). That trend died thankfully, I can't stand intolerance & violence.

Yes ! (although the video above shows nothing).

Obviously 1, NOT a copy.

That's a great car for a silly price. A really silly price. €8500 or €18000 would be more realistic.

They also have (and had) very cool ambulances around western Europe.

What the hell does a Dutch guy know from the Confederacy?

I'm a European male, and feel like the exact target audience, I even laughed with her while watching this. Thanks Jason, for embracing our quirky.

Genetically, the boy must race, here's mum (Sophie).

The new M5 is slower than the previous M5 (E60) due to the increased air resistance and much worse aerodynamic balance, I think. At high speed, all that power is needed to push huge masses of air out of the way.

If you like beautiful gardens, funky architecture and great food, it's a good place.
