BMW 335d wagon, for the engineering professor. An industrial engineering professor at my school bought one before they stopped selling them in the U.S. His selection just made so much sense.

You had me at "Stratos Jump"

Seen this before - time to bring-up the obligatory "the muffler is dangling beneath."

Now, here's a "big time traveler..."

Looks like we're all in agreement that, really, the only issue here is safety.

No one should ever say "I've never seen Back to the Future" and "LOL" in the same sentence. This is sad.

I just spent 20 minutes on the Internet Movie Car Database because of this posting...

I don't think cops need a warrant to take a DNA sample, which is essentially what's going on here under these "no refusal" blood tests: taking evidence from your body. As long as the cops are properly trained on taking blood tests I don't see an issue here.

However, it is my understanding that this extends to only those acts themselves. For example, someone cannot recover damages from a state welfare agency for not removing a child…

Just dropped by to post this - thought it would be appropriate.

Big deal. I have slept in a 911 GT3 Cup on no fewer than five occasions. Once I was too tired for the drive back from Monterrey. A second time I got stuck in a sandstorm just outside of Dubai. And it's so cozy inside that, in 2010, I fell asleep during the 12 Hours of Sebring. When I was feeling pretty…
