“I’m a film score tragic”

As the proud (well, sort of) owner of a 2010 TDI wagon, I mostly just want some kind of timeline from VW. My dealer says they don’t know when a fix is coming, and I believe them. The longer it takes, the less likely I would be to buy another VW product. I am a recovering tree-hugger; the eco-friendly thing wasn’t…

No hate from me- I always thought they were cooler than their Porsche stablemates, especially with the V-10 diesel. Still, glad I don’t have deal with one post-warranty.

Avus Grandstand- First trip to Berlin some years ago, driving out of town and there it was (not my photo-I didn’t take a pic cause I was driving).

The answer to the “what’s the point?” trolls is contained in the headline:

Maybe, although I thought maybe the Touareg was some sort of metaphor for the stock market. Or something.

Pretty much my (now-dashed) dream about the powerball thing.

I don’t have a clue about any of this crap, but I like the way you write. I thought you had dropped off the Jalop universe and now here you are, twice in a weekend! Keep bringing us the news from your adopted home!

I own a 2010 Jetta TDI wagon. Would I buy another VW at a discount? Probably. Would my better, smarter half agree to this? NOT IF ITS THE LAST CAR ON THE PLANET. So, a qualified maybe then.

As someone who might (or might not) have put a cash deposit down on the last microbus at his local dealer (hey, I wasn’t the only one!) this is great (and not so great) news. I’ll use Bitcoin for my deposit this time...

I thought I hated these. Then this one. I want this one.

Indycars are back at Road America!

Studebaker Wagonaire 1963-1966- sold less than a thousand of them. God this thing is cool:

Not impossible to find- keep looking!

only halfway through this video and already have lost faith in humankind’s survival..

So, there are TWO Leafs (Leaves?) that park on a street near me, and yesterday a Saab 99 was parked between them. The old Saab looked positively petite compared to a modern electric. Weird.

Rain. Then COTA’s response, which was to run a F1 practice and PREVENT FANS FROM ENTERING. Perfect metaphor all that is awful about modern F1.

“Now that we’ve had “the Miata talk” let’s get back to this Datsun”- Brilliant. Yes, the answer to everything is “Miata”. It just might not be the right answer.

Gotta go with the whole IMSA drug-smuggling mafia: John Paul Sr, Randy Lanier, The Whittingtons. Take your pick. Mind you, you asked for “worst”, not least successful- these guys ran some great races (I was there for a few of them).
