The final option, limiting engine power, is the most disconcerting of the bunch, but — once again — the law still requires that the driver can overrule the ISA by pushing the accelerator harder.

It’s not in factory condition, though. “I have the original parts at home” doesn’t count, does it?

Per the seller, the clean-title car was detailed last fall — ready to head out to car shows and “win some trophies.”

Bonus points if you can land it on a runway!

Any landing you can walk away from is a good landing.

90% of these are ND. Wow. Especially that Civic…? People truly have been hitting that pipe. 

I’m so glad Janet is back safe! I always worry so much if I can’t find Calvin after the cleaners come and accidentally leave the doors open too long. Here’s my pretty boy.

I was born in the early 80s, but in recent memory that intrateam rivalry was pretty fantastic.

I legitimately had to stop reading it because the writing is so bad and disjointed. Feels like some of my writing from high school. Also…did we watch the same race as Erik?

The Millau Villaduct in France is absolutely breathtaking. I drove across it several years ago and it was one of the most stunning driving experiences of my life. 

I live in Washington, DC - every day I get in my car is just a series of near misses with insane drivers/delivery trucks/the 12'o clock boys/scooters/oblivious pedestrians.

Guess it’s time to start ordering Bose headsets in bulk.

There’s nothing wrong with liking this car. My dad lives on a farm and one of his buddies came over with a Raptor while I was there. He let me tear around in it - it was amazingly fun. I’m not going to drive back here to DC and street park and run errands with it - that would be foolhardy. But we are car enthusiasts. T

I believe she was illustrating why you would need a modular one - if you have, for example, a single din stereo (my old car had this and limited my stereo choice)

Do it, you coward. 

These prices actually aren’t ridiculous for a pretty sharp looking bike. I would definitely consider one of these if I was in the market. 

My first car was a 1993 Buick Lesabre that my parents gave me when I turned 16. Not the coolest car in the world for a non-rich kid surrounded by rich kids at a prep school all driving Wranglers and VW Cabrios, but I was grateful. That 3.8 litre V6 felt like a lot at the time (although now I’m aghast at how little

Yeah, cars from that era (which I love) have cupholders that are either too small or non-existent. Even in my Audi, which is about a decade newer, the two cup holders behind the shifter are too small for gas-station sized water bottles, and you can’t really use them because if you put anything in them...you can’t
