When is the time on Sprockets when they dance?

In fact last year I bought a one year old X5 diesel and have been delighted with it, and I saved a lot of money over buying new (though of course not nearly as much as buying a 3 year old one, but then it'd be 3 years old instead of 1). It's still under factory warranty and free maintenance, but the only warranty…
Nothing wrong with wanting VW to succeed. Right now, except for the GTI, they don't really make the quirky cars that VW fans loved in days of old, but they don't make cars that will sell in volume either.
Wow, I had one that looked exactly like that. It was my first new car, and the first of three consecutive Passats (B3/B4/B5), and still my favorite. I had it only two years until it was wrecked but I don't recall it being particularly unreliable. My B4, now that was unreliable until they replaced the ECU under…
In addition to the heated seats and Bluetooth already mentioned, I really like the heated steering wheel. Sounds frivolous until you try it on a cold day, especially if you've been outside for any length of time.
A330 has no boom. The KC-45 would have had a boom.
Yeah, especially since the engines on the MiG-29 are the worst things about that plane, and yet they have no choice but to use them.
Why don't they build the Sport Turismo? That's one of the best looking sedans/wagons/shooting brakes ever designed.
Yeah, the first 6 were all overweight, non-standard, and/or considered dogs performance-wise, and no airline was interested in them, and Boeing basically had to write the first three (ZA001-003) off.
I have a bunch of both Eneloops and Powerexes. The Eneloops have been 100%, while there have been a surprising number of duds among the Powerexes — batteries that would hold a charge, etc.

I don't know if you're being facetious but I find this 911 looks surprisingly good in that color, as diarrhea brown as it is.
Well, they could always call it a 912.
Well, HP CEO Léo Apotheker was (ostensibly) fired for something less than a full blown affair with a consultant.
Not surprising behavior from the Argentines. Posture and start a war, hoping it was too far away for the Brits to care too much, lose and still act all butthurt about it 30+ years later. Welch on your debts, then take a grandstanding position that actually hurts your country when your creditors come a calling. Look…
Truth. As someone who owns/owned 4 VWs (B3/B4/B5 Passats, MkV GTI), the only car in VWs lineup that I'd buy is another GTI. Maybe also the upcoming Golf TDI wagon. The Touareg is actually a great SUV, but it's in that weird in-between space like the Phaeton — too expensive compared to typical VWs, even if thousands…
Yeah I was impressed by how fast the i8 was, given the "low" amount of power and the skinny tires and all that. I'd figure it'd be a technologically impressive showpiece that drove well but wouldn't be all that fast in an absolute sense (compared to other cars in its price range).
That's why when I buy/sell things on sites like Craigslist (admittedly not a car): (1) meet in a public place, like a Starbucks or its parking lot, (2) let someone else know where you'll be and what you're doing, (3) face-to-face cash sale only, and (4) carry my concealed handgun. No problems so far.
Now playing
Reminds me of this scene from the Hunt for Red October:
US regulations. European models don't have that reflector there at all.
