Thanks Tom!

I'd really like to be one too

I mean seriously! Hell they had it on the front page of MSN right after the race. If you don't want it spoiled, stay off the internet. Or ya know just watch it live.

They were just doing hood-rat shit with their friends!

For some reason this car just looks great. Its got clean body lines, no ridiculous body lines like some other makes and i love the darkened head & tail lamps.

Its like that Toby Keith song: "I ain't as good as I once was, but I'm as good once as I ever was."

An incredibly historically valuable Mercedes-Benz 300SL Gullwing was pretty much destroyed yesterday at the Mille Miglia by a passing BMW (of course). It was one of the really nice ones, too, with the black paint and red interior. Aw, what the hell.

How is the fit and finish? Does it feel cheap to where it'll fall apart in a few years?

The 12-cylinder W140 is a freight train of a car. I would wager that you couldn't come close to its sense of solidity and security outside of something with BRINKS on the door. These also go through premium gas like a frat party goes through roofies, the S600 being one of history's greatest odes to OPEC.

Personally, I think I prefer amber rear indicators. I kind of like the way they look in a taillight, and I do think they're more instantly identifiable. Usually it's not an issue, but there have been times when a car with a burned-out brake light has looked like it's indicating a turn, for example. Plus, there's lots…

I'm pretty sure that 60% of the time it works every time.

Didn't Volvo prove this a few years ago?

Interestingly, there doesn't seem to be a Performance Package, Premium Package or 50th Anniversary Appearance Package on the V6 Mustang, at least not at the moment. Ford must really want to push the EcoBoost as the sub-V8 go-fast model now.

I really think IndyCar needs to think about having on-board starters so the drivers can restart their cars after a stall.

They did. The local yellows were waived once he stalled. There is no way to stop all those cars in that short time frame.

A Missouri senator is busting the US National Guard's Constitutionally-empowered balls today for failing to sign up a "single new soldier to its ranks" in 2012, reports USA Today, despite spending fat taxbux on a NASCAR sponsorship to support its recruitment effort.

There is just too much going on here.......

The irony of a picture of an ass-hat parking job by a car that is not a BMW with a BMW in the frame that appears to be properly parked.

Hows the pick up when you step on the gas? Do you have the 1.6L ecoboost engine?

I like the tinted taillights. The fusion actually looks great blacked out
