“highly”  -- (I see what you did there)

Not even slightly.

Wow, thanks so much for the insult. You must really understand how all chemicals react to every human being, ever. It’s 100% legal to drink alcohol and drive, assuming your BAC is below the limit. My point is that a certain amount of a particular substance does indeed help me drive. It also helps me solve complex…

And don’t compare this to alcohol. Alcohol gives a false sense of confidence and lowers inhibitions. I don't know anyone that WANTS to or is willing to drive when incredibly stoned. Alcohol you have to steal keys away.

Please don't high horse me. Marijuana is different for everyone. Also, my reaction time was still well above average human time, just lower than fully sober.

For the record, I’m not advising anyone to go get high and drift the canyons. I’m just trying to offer up some evidence as to how it can affect some people more positively than others. These were always very small amounts of weed, as I greatly despise being too high. Think of it this way...everyone arvises drinking…

I have performed numerous pseudo-scientific studies on myself over the years, with pot vs sobriety vs various driving events. I found that in AutoX, being high improved my times by a small amount. I attribute this mostly to marijuana’s ability to help me focus on a task at hand. In drag racing, there was zero effect…

Nice detail. I suspect the turbo used will be the same as the one in the new g20 340i and the z4. Furthermore, I think the entire engine assembly will be identical among those 3.

It’s a little busy, but overall I think I like it. My F30 looks pretty bland by comparison. I think this looks a lot better than the new 5 and 7 series, so that’s a plus. As someone with a 6 speed manual M-Sport 340i, you’d think I’d bemoan the lack of the option. I’ve spent the last 2 years dailying my F30 (though I…

Sure, they didn’t pop up as often as the autos, but I still had no trouble getting a manual M-Sport 340 around this time 2 years ago. I was able to negotiate a healthy discount as well.

Most people buying this have already owned M, RS, or AMG cars. They are used to less than ideal reliability, stratospheric repair costs, poor mileage, and changing tires at the rate most change oil. But if Alfa manages to get THOSE people to scoff, then you know the car is a mess.

Dammit Subaru. We need SOME pep. This car with the new 2.4T would be acceptable. I still wish it had a real transmission though. Even an 8 speed auto wouldn’t hurt.

This BMW Z4 sDrive M40i Coupe (cough I mean Supra) will be automatic-only and priced at M2 or possibly M3/M4 levels. It weighs as much as them too, but without the utility of a backseat. It has the same engine I’ve got in my 340i (spoiler alert, this motor has been software upgrade-able to 380+ WHP since release), and…

well nothing has changed dammit.

But the President of our nation can tweet out obstruction of justice, nuclear threats, etc....and nobody’s doing shit.

I had a 335d and it was a torque monster that got pretty good mileage (considering the shove). But electrics now dominate in the torque department, and are more efficient overall. Plus the new crop of gas motors are getting far more thermally efficient, with Skyactiv-X edging closer and closer to diesel. Because of…

I’ve heard all these horror stories for years, but I’ve bought stuff from ECS for 15 years, and many different vehicles, and I guess I got lucky??? No issues other than one or two items being 2-3 days later than expected.

If you want one right now, the new Gen 4 Fossils are actually pretty good. Yes, they have the Snapdragon 2100 processor, which is a bit dated, but it doesn’t feel sluggish or anything. The screens are round (no flat spot), they have auto-brightness options, they have 3 physical buttons and a scroll, the screens are…

Possibly. But it would be more expensive, take up more space, add a lot of extra weight, etc. This option would add ~$25/month to a 5 year loan on the truck. Which is a really easy sell, especially when it’s saving $40/month in fuel (based on my math above). Where’s the downside?
