Good one. This was Infiniti hitting its stride and being the Japanese BMW, everything RWD and many of them with a V8.

I think that speaks more to him being 24 at the time than anything else. Your early twenties are peak gearhead.

The Bruno Sacco era for Mercedes Benz.

That looks like a crappy settlement that needs to have an additional $100,000 of putative damages awarded for every vehicle they illegally towed and sold for it to qualify as a good settlement. 

The stately Bruno Sacco era at Merc, the design was built focusing on safety and a design that was specifically penned to not be rendered obsolete by the models that succeed it in the upcoming gerations of the lineup. Clean, coherant and tasteful.

I personnally always liked the Ford version of the Aston Martin Grille that was on the fusions. and was on other models the new grille is so lazy i cant even describe it

Where does it say they were repo’d? 

This doesn’t sound like a win. The settlement sounds like bs that doesn’t reflect the replacement value of the vehicles or the personal items inside.

I didn’t realize OEM+ was a term. I’ve been modifying my vehicles that way since I started driving.

I legitimately enjoy cars mods that make people say, “that’s stupid, you’re destroying the <car>“

I have a severe conflict of interest for this one (Honda boy), but, OEM+. By that I mean, finding all the cool optional add-ons that most never selected from the factory. Window visors, fog lights, optional spoilers, optional wheels, upgraded suspension bits, etc. It’s cool to see things that were meant to enhance the…

I came here to post the same. For me a clean OEM+ vehicle is one that flies under the radar. It may be the last car to be photographed at Cars & Coffee and the police won’t take notice when it goes by at 10mph over the limit. But when an enthusiast of that particular model spots it they will appreciate the execution,…

Being subtle is hard. Anyone can go nuts with fibreglass and paint. Anyone can stance a car, lift a truck, whatever. It’s easy to be absurd. Being subtle is a talent that not many modders posses.

I like mods that make a vehicle look more polished, more thought-out than what came from the factory.

Any performance mod that doesn’t modify the car’s physical appearance. Sleepers > *.

The best answer - Ford Explorer Eddie Bauer - has already been mentioned multiple times.

I really wanted to say it was the Viper, but I challenged my assumptions. After giving it some thought, I’m pretty sure the answer is the Ford Explorer. It was the first widely-accepted soft-roader “SUV” that was really just a different-looking minivan. The beginning of the end of The Car and the beginning of the…

Not even close: Jellybean Taurus in that turquoise/teal green.

Why do people have such a boner about getting trains in the first place? Is it a lot cheaper fare than planes? Planes can take you from LA to SF today and probably faster than a train could go, and they don’t need to build a straight line through a whole long state to do it. Plus they’re versatile, you can fly them…

I don’t even buy those these things and I hate that guy.
