Oh god, Star Wars People! I am a bit late to the theater but I have watched episodes VII and VIII so far and they are head-over-heels better than the originals. And I grew up watching episodes IX through VI including the digitally enhanced versions that came out in the nineties. The first three were just ok but I love…

Many years ago, I drove a friend’s early year 5th-Gen Mustang GT convertible and was surprised at how much closer it felt to a personal coupe/convertible like the Sebring than an actual muscle car. I was never much of a Mustang fan but I expected it to feel faster and be more fun to drive than a boring FWD coupe. The…

I have a newer A7 and they seemed to have worked out the fit and finish and mechanical issues but it appears Audi has moved on to software and technology issues because I have been through at least half a dozen recalls and several check engine lights that were resolved by “software updates.” 

Uhh, it’s not that Gen Z doesn’t drink as much, they just buy less booze at concerts. I don’t blame them, the cost of a shit beer is like $15 and liquor is even more expensive. People are finding better ways to smuggle booze into concerts!

I came here to essentially say the same thing. I can’t imagine anyone would be nostalgic enough for a twin-turbo Z to pay more than a few thousand over MSRP and once above the $60K range, there are lots of other great cars available like the Blackwing, Supra/Z4, M2, and base 718 Cayman.

Between the curb strikes and inability to use the roundabout or make a turn at anything above a crawling speed, this person clearly does not have the ability to control the vehicle.

The 500e is a great personal or couple car but if you have a family and have to haul stuff, it just won’t cut it. I rented a 500x diesel on a road trip from Venice to Florence several years ago and it was a great car and perfect for our needs. We didn’t have kids back then but it swallowed our luggage and felt almost a…

Judging from the way the person was driving leading up the crash and of course the crash itself, this person should be banned from driving for the rest of their life. Allowing them (and other similar people who are unable to operate a motor vehicle) to retake the test after recovery is a huge public safety concern.

Unfortunately, machines do not yet have the ability to predict the future nor the ability to see through solid objects. Until these two things are figured out, we can only rely on our own senses. While autonomous driving is certainly not ready for mainstream, we cannot expect it to overcome bad luck and/or human…

Hopefully this app accounts speed consistency. I want to start giving out gold starts to anyone who can maintain a fairly consistent speed which is an important but uncommon driving skill. It is so frustrating (and unsafe because of unpredictability) to follow the average rube and watching the speed go from 52 to 78…

Seriously!

I am a frequent traveler and I can’t understand how anyone who flies more than once or twice a year does not have a TSA Pre membership. Sure, the lines can still be long but typically are 15 minutes or less, you don’t have to walk around on the nasty floor without shoes on, and you don’t have to dump your electronics…

I wanted to follow up and say we should all be supporting Bianchi for going up against the machine and drawing attention to the extreme corruption in one of the largest police departments in the country.

There are plenty of good unions out there but most police unions don’t fit into that group.

I used to live in a building with an adorable mini border collie with a brindle coat and two differently pigmented eyes and I tried not to think of what it took to breed a miniature border collie. But then the guy had the tail docked, on a border collie, and all I wanted to do was slap him and take the dog to prevent…

Look at what happens when one cop tries to be good and do the right thing - you see an entire wave of bad cops (and their “unions”) come crashing down on top of him. This person became an officer of the law for all the right reason instead of to bully and take advantage of the power, apparently like a majority of the…

My favorite are the ones with tinted license plate covers that are either so dark or have become cloudy due to UV exposure that you can clearly see the driver’s intent to obscure the license plate.  

Good point about the huge depreciation that is likely for the Grecale.  Meanwhile, the Macan will barely lose any value.  I took a look at Ghibli prices and a brand new Modena Q4 starts at $95K and I see a CPO 2022 model with less than 800 miles for $74K.  That’s some pretty horrendous depreciation right there.

Yeah, I figured there were supply chain issues and it makes more financial sense to have a high-demand powertrain in a more expensive trim that will likely garner more profit than an $80K car. The good thing is that I have never been an early adapter and I am patient enough to wait until I can get a decent deal on a…

I came to say the same thing.  It is ridiculous that the reduced speed limits for construction remain in effect even when there are no workers working.
