On a mostly unrelated topic: What’s the reputation for VAG products holding up under launch control? I’ve got an 8P A3 with launch control, AWD and DSG. I’ve only used LC once because I’m afraid of wearing the clutch out. Thanks in advance.
Up to 6 months seems to be the magic age. After 6 months, all bets are off.
I rented the Beretta back in the day. It was a pretty good car. Hit um...a high speed with no problem.
In most states, it’s illegal to drive with .08 or more alcohol, or if you’re impaired. You may not get caught unless you’re driving poorly, but it’s still illegal.
Puerto Rico, Dominican Republic, Japan, Korea: Baseball games in those places are fun. Went to a KBO game a couple of summers ago and the batting team’s fans are on their feet the entire side of the inning, cheering, singing, stomping feet. It’s like going to an MLS game. The energy is incredible and infectious. What…
Conventional weapons may be enough to cripple the NK forces—but how do gou do that without sparking a devastating NK artillery barrage against Seoul?
Once shit gets real, it gets real in unpredictable ways. During the Cuban Missile Crisis: 1) the Soviets authorized field commanders in Cuba to launch “tactical” nukes (each at least as powerful as the Nagasaki bomb) against Guantanamo Bay; 2) a Soviet submarine prepared to launch a nuclear torpedo at American ships,…
A good one. Get one that’s too thin, it’ll start warping and pretty soon your slice of bread looks like you were drunk when you cut it.
Yeah, same thing here: I cursed when I first saw the Cruze in the rental lot. Not what I’d want to buy, but it was pretty darn good. It didn’t feel cheap or fragile.
You mean looks or driveability? I haven’t driven the first gen. Had to rent the Cruze last year. When I first saw it on the rental lot, I cursed. But I was pleasantly surprised. Handled pretty well and accelerated fine on the California freeway. Seats were good and Apple Car Play worked flawlessly.
Agreed. Chevy managed to do it with the new Cruze.
Just sayin...
Back during the Iran hostage crisis, an Indian friend in high school was beaten up by another guy for being Iranian. (A girl who was the attacker’s friend, pointing out that she was Iranian, who pulled him off.)
George Carlin once proposed that each car have suction cup or magnetic darts it can launch at another car, and a cop can automatically write a ticket for any car with 3 or more darts stuck to it. I continue to think that is a brilliant policy concept.
Yes! Looked it up after reading your comment and I think you are definitely correct. Thanks!
Agree. I think the 1st gen A5 Sportback (saw it in Europe) is better looking than this new one. Although I still the overall look. A7 always seemed too cut-off at the rear to me.
This, last summer in Tokyo. If anyone can identify it I would be most grateful.
In Europe, many urban gas stations are simply one island crammed in next to the store, so if you pull off the road to fill ‘er up, you have to fill up on the passenger side.
