“Those were the days.”

The tradeoff of course is that it was way more expensive to the point of being out of reach for most middle-class families.

Arrivederci everyone. Thank you for the comments, COTDs and everything else. It’s been a blast posting as the man himself

“Hey Honey, I bet I can smuggle 200lbs of uncut cocaine into the USA”

Torch, this weekend use of mushrooms has got to stop.

Because he’s a public official elected by the people. He’s paid by the people. He works FOR THE PEOPLE! If he were the one to instate speed limits for example, and then chose to not obey them, but insisted that we be penalised criminally for not obeying them that is a double standard. It’s also unethical and no one…

Right, if the laws will never effect him why would he care about them?

The cartel had a spotter, who likely had a radio, who was able to get at least 2 cars (probably more that didn’t line up properly) into traffic while staging a “break down”. You noticed there were more people on the ground with their hands behind their head after the shootings? The action focused on the two cars that…

Apparently they also let BMW handle the racing version.

I was wondering if the Germans changed their ways.

Well you said it yourself. Wow you could have saved everyone so much work. When you type stuff, maybe hitting “publish” is sometimes one step too far.. . Look, I was very harsh and critical and I’m sorry. You were incorrect and I dropped a payload of napalm and it was unsporting. I'll try to be a better person. 

F10 M5 is pretty reliable so far, older ones have been on the road for 6 years now...vastly more so than the E60

Sure, why not? No supercharger. Heavier. No cam belts .Engines that don’t date from the Reagan era. Easy to work on. Cheap pearts

I do that all the time and have gotten in several unavoidable accidents. They weren’t my fault, but you just cannot count on other drivers.

Yes! Terrorist no longer threatening the homeland. Thank you President Obama!

I don’t think Trump can file for bankruptcy protection for the country.

Yep. I have a ‘00 Silverado with 230k miles that starts everytime and has never left me stranded (and it cost me less than this Nissan). I would trust it to drive across the country on a moments notice

You’re comparing a 17 year old Nissan to...a new Silverado?

I have to be honest: I’m having a hard time getting worked-up about this because it isn’t really “street racing”. Perhaps because this was me in my early twenties, hanging out in a cruising spot where sometimes hundreds of people would show up in a large shopping center’s parking lot and doing dumb shit until 2-3AM.…

How so? I don’t mean how they’re implemented in road cars, but how a proper CVT would work in a race car. The gearbox is an extraneous dead weight device that only exists because of the limitations of conventional motors. Race boats and race jets have never needed the things, if we could get rid (or minimize) them,…
