i mean, all high-speed-flying-dildo humor aside, the end result shot is pretty goddamned awesome

All German / Euro cars can be pretty dependable if you maintain them properly and stay on top of little things, but in my experience Audi is the worst.

I have a 2023 M3 Competition, and it’s by far the best car I’ve ever owned. Sub-3 second 0-60 time, handling right up there with a Porsche, fantastic interior, and still gets nearly 28 mpg on longer road trips.

All that, and the B58/S58 engine has begun getting a reputation for being pretty damn bullet-proof.

Complain…

I have a 10 year old X5 diesel with 140K miles on the clock and it has been nothing but solid and reliable.  There are no squeaks and rattles, all the electronics work (including the self-closing doors), and it still feels every bit as good as when it was a much younger vehicle.  Compare that to my A7 PHEV which,…

I don’t think you understand what snake oil is. Both wraps and ceramic coating serve a purpose, snake oil is something that claims to do something but does nothing.

Go to your room. 

Everyone has probably heard some variation of the unknown scientist, who in the mid-20th century, invented a magic carburetor which allowed vehicles to get 100+ MPG but was either silenced or murdered through some shadowy plot carried out by the big oil and automotive companies.

These aint lasting anywhere near 500 landings...

Drive the car and you won’t care what it’s called.

Counterpoint: They were grossly too expensive to being with, so I just see it as $50k of depreciation and $20-30k margin grab taken off. I can’t imagine the margins on just upping the output of an electric motor through software. You could get an almost mechanically identical Audi RS etron GT for $150k (which was also…

Me waiting for them shits to drop another $50k in the next two years

The body shell says “BMW” but the innards say “Chevette”.  ND.

I care, because it makes it that much funnier.

There’s no level of cringe that the Muskrat wouldn’t stoop down to, so I wouldn’t be surprised if it is really him.

Straight out of the Trump playbook. ‘John Barron’ I believe was DT’s alter ego.

That is clean enough that I kinda want it to make a proper powered GLH clone and wouldn’t feel bad about using this to do it.

I MIGHT believe this IF their chest compressions came anywhere close to 2 inches...
