I drove rotary-engined cars daily for 11 years, and all I can say is hit the road, Wankel. I won't miss ya.

Dude, I've been driving for 30 years and I've owned about 50 cars so far. In all that time, I have never, ever owned a single American vehicle. True story.

At what point in the video did the cop *ask* for the video?

I think he showed pretty good restraint for a guy who was puller over for nothing, then told (not asked, told) that his personal property was going to be seized without due process or a warrant.

Someone mentioned the VW Thing below, but I would suggest narrowing that choice down to the "Acapulco" version. Looks like it belongs on Fantasy Island with the topless Volare wagon.

Whenever I see that video all I see are those trees at the bottom of the hill. It's a miracle that sloppy-suspensioned Buick manages to stick the landing. If it doesn't, we're probably looking at another "car-torn-in-half-by-a-tree" photo.

This! If you can see the side of your car in your side-view mirrors, they're adjusted wrong.

I submit that this is even more blasphemous. This slammed Land Rover is also powered by an air cooled VW engine.

For the Mustang driver, this.

So I presume this guy had to give himself a ticket, no?

According to Vince Gilligan on the DVD commentary, it's not a factory color. They actually mixed it up special for Walter's Aztek.

2001...I sold my '89 NA RX-7 and stretched a bit to buy a 3-year-old E36 M3. My God, that car was glorious in comparison.

21. Oy vei, I'm old.

He grew up watching me wrench on old Volkswagens and while he didn't follow me down that road, he's grown into a pretty decent mechanic in his own right. When he traded an AE86 Corolla with a bad engine for the 510 in running condition, I was so proud.

Actually, it wasn't as bad as you might expect! A new strut, some fenders and a bit of work and he's still driving it. The roof wasn't even bent, it blew my mind.

Yeah, but can he do this with his 510? Because my son can.

"To qualify in this exclusive geezer group, the car must be built on a platform at least 25 years old. Engines can change, there can be facelifts, new materials, new names, whatever, but the fundamental platform must still remain the same. So, yes, while there've been Mustangs and Corvettes and Suburbans so on since…

Sharks + rollercoasters = heartclick.

Nope, Toyota Corona.
