It wasn't that hard. I just picked the countries that are the larger trading partners with the US.

Actually, it was! I thought it more likely that you were from Liberia, Côte d'Ivoire, or Nigeria than from Ghana, Togo, or Benin. There are only six countries that fit your description, after all.

Is it just me, or does it seem like you could gain the 30HP benefit of this engine just by removing all of the belt-driven accessories from the turbo? You know, drop the A/C, heater, generator, etc.

I think they're out of production, but there's enough of a stock to sell them new in some parts of South America where demand is low.

Actually, they've been completely redesigned internally to accommodate new powertrains and fueling systems. Most of them now run on propane or electricity.

Where'd you grow up? I can think of six countries, three more likely than the others.

You're thinking of a different car - the Samand is literally a 405. They've also been making a RWD 405 branded as the Peugeot ROA for years. But they're very different - the ROA is unreliable because its underpinnings are from a 1967 Hillman Hunter, whose tooling was sold to Iran in the late-70s.

Aside from the Land Cruiser 70-series, the rest are out of production (Well, except the current models). For Land Rover - when they made the switch to the Defender, the outside was thoroughly redone (it was nearly a complete rebody), and all of the internal mechanical bits changed - that qualifies it as a new car.…

Zondas & Huayras have side-trunks, too - though theirs are more like saddle-trunks, since they require you to open the rear clamshell and then a top-opening tiny cubbyhole.

Stretch that and push the bodywork out to the wheels. Look at all the space between the front wheels and the bodywork - then fill that in to get the four-seater

You forgot to mention that Jalop forgot "Love the Beast" and the associated movie-start pedigree of an XB falcon. Cruise by the premiere of Eric Bana's next movie in this thing - and you could have an in with Hollywood.

Active Aero is IMHO some of the coolest stuff around. Seeing the flaps flipping up and down was pretty cool, but I'd like to see the nose flaps working too.

They aren't using robots at Fukushima not because they don't have any that will work in the radiation - they do. However, the plant buildings were designed in the late '60s, and are therefore not robot friendly (imagine a wheelchair-bound man navigating a building without ramps).

In general, the luxury of a world capital's subway is an inverse to the actual freedoms and quality of life there.

How? I can't seem to get it working.

Oh, I'm aware. I was just confirming your suspicions, not trying to prove you wrong.

It's not that the battery life is lower, Apple's switched to a 'better' battery test. So supposedly a user will be able to get close to a 7 hour battery life in normal use, rather than the 10 hours of optimal use (who has their wifi off?) that was claimed for the previous generation.

@EljhHck: If you feel that way, be a hacker, and buy one of those metal backs! I'm seriously considering it for my second year of iPhone 4 ownership.

@Krdshrk: Hey, you're Kareem Abdul Jabbar!

@Brad: You'd think he learned his lesson......but then a similar thing happened and he got his eye cut up on national television.
