Citroen’s system is hydraulic, this system uses electromagnets.

That’s...beautiful. Perfectly pan-seared steaks every time, and instant boiled water for making spaghetti.

Off topic but sort of on topic - it seems that Continental makes some hot garbage for OEM rubbers, but the two sets that I’ve bought from them for the SS (ExtremeContact DWS 06 & WinterContact Si) have been phenomenal.

Nothing like some light reading on how to turn the world into glass around Christmas time. It's amazing and amazingly terrifying how much effort was put into this nearly 60 years ago; I can only imagine what the 2015 version says...

Put a horn setup from a ‘76 Cadillac Fleetwood on my old Cavalier. Briefly. Also put a $300 Blaupunkt head unit in it without upgrading the speakers just so I could have an aux jack. Ahh, college...

I’d say the RX300 is the genesis of the crossover as we know it. As much as we have a collective hard-on for the Eagle SX4, without the RX300, crossovers would have never really gotten the acceptance that they have. The ML300 is *the* modern non-American luxury SUV (even though up until 2010-2011 it’s always been made

The overall name of the event is “Festival of Speed.” So unless you can get a few Maglevs to do a drag race or turn Lord March’s driveway into a railroad, I don’t think there’s gonna be much more than race cars at this particular festival
