Probably from the 225,000 miles its lived. It is a most excellent car, and I love it more for being a dirty and terrible car. It spits flames. It’s fun. Go ahead and touch it.

^ Yes.  This.

Saw some italian dude get straight up booted from the Petersen for doing this with one of the Ferraris in the entrance way. (I think it was a 360 but can’t remember exactly)

It was behind ropes and everything but he felt compelled to lean on the spoiler for a photograph. So he and his girlfriend had a rather short…

Mmm bad take 

As the owner of an unresonated V10 Audi, I know what you mean and *DO* sometimes feel guilty at that cold startup bark at 5am.  But then again, it sounds sooooooo gooooood

That’s what I’m looking for in a sporty car. Quiet.

Counterpoint: touch the cars. You won’t hurt ‘em. They will be fine. Get your grubby mitts all over them. Someone can just wipe the prints off later. No harm done.

That halo saved him from wearing a permanent halo. 

Saved him from a tire to the face. Jesus.

Wow, you can really see the halo breaking the suspension on the other car.  Chock up a solid win for the halo.

This is a better view.

Meh...just another day in the middle east.

For the good car needer I have a 2002 Saturn. It’s party time with this champagne paint jab, all panels in excellent shapes with high dent-resistance. Smells like vanilla oil changes religiously. Engine is a faultless, I see minor trenches of framed rust. Only need is a smooth-shifting automatic shifting 4-speed…

I can already see Chevy using your handsome face for their billboards:

I don’t know, Patrick had gray hair, and people with gray hair are supposed to be smart

Hmmm... I’m just a humble reader, never heard of this wonderful website until JUST THIS SECOND obviously, but I have to say this “Ballaban” guy schooled you pretty good, Patrick. His arguments are sound, concise, lucid, and he is also exceedingly handsome.

Here goes both of these tools on some random other guys instagram.

Corvette that crashed near Ann Arbor likely going too fast, police say

Charging someone with felony over this seems silly to me. Kid is 21 and if convicted will never be able to get work etc. Yes I understand people got hurt... but a felony? C’mon...
