Not the whale, think caviar. While I agree the size and shape are vaguely reminiscent of the arctic cetacean, I think caviar will come to mind first for most of Bentley’s target market.

I’m even more of a British car nut than an Italian one. I’m afraid I’d have to take the E-Type...the only Ferrari on my win-the-lottery garage list is a 250 GT Spyder California

Aww, he sold the E-Type?

Torch, this is fantastic. I watched with baited breath (and far too much jealousy) when Chris Harris last drove with Jaguar Heritage...and now I get to be jealous of you too. What sort of thing must one do to catch the eye of Jaguar and earn an invite to drive classics most of us could never own through Italy in one…

There’s also some scary other tick-borne coinfections that suppress the immune response and make the textbook “4 weeks of oral antibiotics” ineffective. Pretty nasty potential misery from a tick bite.

Zero acceleration in any dimension, mind. You can be traveling at a constant speed on a road that curves and get into some pretty serious lateral G-forces...in fact, varying path (and speed) through a turn can significantly heighten or reduce those forces. The situations where we’ll actually be maintaining zero…

They may have been known as entertainers, but none of the triumvirate were anything less than inveterate car guys themselves.

Oh man. Not my favorite color, but the whole package is really not that shabby, and paint is cheap (not like you wouldn't be doing a complete respray anyway!) I'd be so buying this if it was 4 months from now after tax season's passed... NP!

Sort of. The Duratec V6 is an aluminum DOHC design as opposed to the cast iron OHV Vulcan engine. They were both offered on the 4th generation Taurus—although the Duratec offered ~30% more horsepower, I'm glad mine has the Vulcan—easier to work on and more reliable.

While working for an Italian restaurant attached to a casino in Atlantic City, I had a couple sit down in my section. After puzzling over the menu for about 10 minutes, the gentleman calls me over, and with what can only be described as questioning concern, looks at me and asks, "Are your linguinies in season?" To…

I possess one of these, but I'm more than happy for Aston Martin to adopt the name for a car with twice the number of cylinders...

To my understanding, they don't put all trades on the lot—they only stock cars of a certain vintage, and anything else traded in gets sold off at dealer auctions and the like. To avoid having to re-warranty a 150,000-mile Land Rover, or a 1980 Jaguar XJS or the like.

Horrid color there if you ask me, but I've been tempted by XJRs before. Like the also-supercharged eight-cylinder 2001 Jaguar XJR in British Racing Green and oatmeal leather that went for $6k a couple years ago.

YES! Got to say, I was pretty bored with the 'Skyline GT-R' part, but now this? My hope in Doug is not ill-founded.

NOT SO! When I was living in the UK, sure, there were no shortage of grey, damp, unpleasantly windy days that smelled like ancient rotting leaves. There was even one time we didn't see the sun as a bright spot in the clouds for ten days straight. In November. Truthfully, though, late March, April, May, and June made…

It took me four, but I was distracted.

HOW did I not know this existed? I love the XJ220, and well, basically any Jaguar. Yet I had no idea (or seriously didn't remember) they'd made a street car based on that series!

Only thing I can think of is maybe a brownie mix that called for milk, and instead of dry milk+water, she put in dry soap flakes+water...

You can probably even pull in some worthwhile things from Oppo on basic (and not-so basic) car repair/detailing/buying/maintenance.

One of my absolute favourite cars of all time, and (along with both the 300SL and the E-Type on my win-the-lottery Top 10 list). I probably give final points to the E-Type simply because I'm partial to the convertible, but I'm not going to argue back-and-forth on these two! If you've seen one in person, you're ahead…
