There should be an antenna here because this looks better suited for the RC market.

Yeah, it's definitely perspective. I see the short term positives, especially for the region and the people. Just don't know if I'm so comfortable with the long term issues that could arise. I am seeing analogues to France.

"papers, please."

If true, it is hard to see how this is a benefit. A regional-visa defeats the basic freedoms that being an American grants. I see this as unintentionally further solidifying the lines between classes, and now races.

it still manages to convey uplifting sadness.

This video unnecessarily infuriates me. I would treat this car with much more respect, by amateurly whipping it around a local track!

Holy Pope, this comment reads like that mouth vomit from that buffoon of a man that is Clarkson. Flame war start!

Squiring!

Am I alone when I say that I believe Tanner Faust is bitch-like?

'Fella' isn't used in the derogatory enough.

I have the Grand Am ad hanging up in my work cube. It will stay there for a long time.

THIS IS TERRIBLE.

BMW owners recognize the attention that goes into maintaining these cars. For this love, we must wrestle with the price tag that is actual mechanical value + the added value of obsessive compulsive care.

Heading south over the i95 bridge from Philadelphia (right next to Philly Int'l Airport). 2 inches of snow had fallen quickly, so the plows were having trouble keeping up. Driving around 60-65 in the left lane when I turned into the right hand curve leading off the bridge…

Top Gear did that too — but they didn't re-evaluate. I think Musk has a big job — protecting and growing an entirely new product. But no doubt Elon Musk is a brand bully. He's got a lot at stake, but handled this situation poorly. 

I disagree. While I can't say I am an advocate of the battery powered car, I can say that you'd had to assume that conservation becomes a natural part of the experience; At least while the infrastructure is limited. Conservation cars mean that we have to be willing to change our perception of personal mobility. It's…

It gave me a raging car-don. I can't figure it out myself, but for some inner-trash reason this van is beautiful. 

Why does this lame argument continue to happen. It fails to address the fundamental market needs of the two countr-inents. It is only recently that our two different needs are becoming similar.
