I know the pictures are pretty, but you'll find the answer twice in the article, including the third sentence.

Completely agree. I've been to race-car driving school and was specifically advised NOT to drive an airbag-equipped vehicle with arms at 10 & 2 or 9 & 3; more like 8 & 4 unless you like the idea of your arms and hands being whipped straight into your face in the event of a head-on.

Again, "booking engine" is a nebulous term. I could use ITA Software's flight-planner tool — the same one travel agents use (and now ostensibly owned by Google, but not much changed since acquisition) — and book the same ridic itinerary I first mentioned.

This is kind of a trick question. Nearly every domestic airline releases last-second weekend fares, bookable less than a day in advance, that are rarely more than $300 r/t. I'd limit the criteria to weekday bookings on Mondays and Fridays, the heaviest travel days.

Sorry, but I have to call bullshit on this entire story. If you *really* wanted to do so, you could construct an itinerary between, say, Dallas and Houston — only 250 miles apart — involving a nearly infinite number of connections and costing six or seven figures.

Without a doubt. The Fisker's basic problem is the battery. I would think 20 years from now we'd be able to power this bitch with something the size of a pair of AAs.

The Mexican-built EA888 Gen 3 turbo will start rolling out this year in Beetle Turbo and Jetta GLI models this year, offering 210 horsepower and 207 lb-ft of torque, which is a 10 horsepower increase over the outgoing Gen 2 engine.

Made where? I know a ton of people with VWs, and almost without exception the ones made in Mexico are pieces of junk and the ones made in Wolfsburg are generally solid. Btw I think most or all Jettas, Passats and Beetles are made in Mexico these days; the GTI is definitely still a Wolfsburg product, however.

I call bullshit. Check out the interior — specifically, the leather pattern on the right-hand door — on a genuine E30 M3 (in pic - yes, it's refurbished, but still essentially the same). The one here looks like a standard E30 325.

Wait, one honorable mention: my old '87 Prelude, even given its geriatric styling and handling, remains one of my all-time favorite throw-around cars, although in hindsight I really wish I'd bought a CRX Si instead (and if I did, I'd *still* own that bastard!).

I remain partial to my '96 Integra Type-R. I know the follow-up RSX is supposed to be better in many ways, but then again, so's the Bimmer E46, and I've had a *hell* of a lot more fun in my '04 M3 than in any later 3-series. The Type-R was a *beast* on the autocross track, where it spent much of its time.

I'm an unabashed fan of the entire series, even though I know it's ridiculous as a whole (well, okay - parts 2 and 3 sucked), and I am REALLY looking forward to the new movie. Btw I'm not sure the entire cast from the original is in it; aside from a possible split-second shot when they're blowing up the plane, Jordana…

Concurred. Only a couple of months ago I was pulled over in NW Houston en route to Cypress. I was driving like a bat out of hell and didn't even notice that I flew completely past a cop, which I otherwise *never* do. I was going at least 90 mph (in a 60- or 65-mph zone), and was convinced I was getting a ticket for…

I see no valid argument for spending nearly ten grand on a non-classic car that primarily served as a Japanese, '60s-'70s version of a Town Car livery vehicle. If I'm spending that kind of bread for a 40-year-old foreign car, it will be for a German one.

Maybe my friends just have good taste, but the frattiest guy I know drives a Mazda 3. The *coolest* fratty guy I know drives a FJ60 LandCruiser.

That's a targa roof, not a convertible.

I had a 135i convertible, but only because I *really* wanted a convertible with the twin-turbo engine and *really* hate folding hardtops, which eliminated the 335i from consideration.

Also have five under my belt. Including three Ferraris. :-) (No, I'm not counting them individually as part of the five.) Two of the Ferraris were sticks; one was a 360 Modena with an F1 tranny. Honestly, the stick-shifts were a total pain in the ass, and the F1 transmission had a whole buttload of issues as well…

I completely agree, and as it so happens, my best friend just took delivery of his Tesla S a couple of months ago. He didn't even *consider* the 40 kWh model because of its lack of real-world power (like most people he took the promises of a 160-mile range with a grain of salt, more so since we live in Texas and…

Clearly y'all aren't from Texas. The worst drivers here are indisputably Suburban/Tahoe/Yukon drivers, which are usually driven by the same soccer moms as minivan — with all the same distractions — except they have much less visibility (my mom has an old Miata, and she's been hit no less than FOUR times by large SUVs…
