I took the same 'road test' - and some girl in line before me passed by one point. For reference, it takes sixteen points to fail the test - and things like backing into the cones while parallel parking is a solitary point. Her parents refused to let her drive home, because they didn't trust her on the highway.…

Pope rides in Seoul. Security detail uses Escalade.

Is there a maximum limit to the coverage? Surely they didn't offer unlimited payout!

I believe the story of being totalled for cosmetic damage. S2000s are often totalled for a lesser incident: people will cut the top open and steal the seats out of the car. The cost of a new top and two new seats is enough.

"What is your GPA?"

That's probably less than likely. I don't think Afriqiyah would have left their plane there unless the airport was closed.

It's roughly the same transition that happened for the Golf/GTI: A sharpening of the design, with edges and corners instead of radiused joins and rounded corners.

So.... it looks even closer to the Passat?

This trunk lid looks like an updated Phaeton. Not exactly the worst thing in the world.

I don't think it'll happen. What I do want is a Wörthersee concept of a Dune retrofitted with a Golf R400 powertrain. Then do a limited run, and take it to Baja.

You know, the Beetle does share the floorpan of the Golf/Tiguan - which do offer AWD. Just sayin', it's definitely possible.

It is shockingly refreshing to see a car engineered purely for burnouts.

I'd believe editing over pure "this is footage of what happened". There's a chase car windshield in the shot at 4:05 - but I wouldn't be surprised if the re-shot some of the exteriors to get better footage.

I don't think they can technically specify the 747 if the USAF plans on running a competitive bidding process (which is usually required for big proposals). They can, however, require the airframe to have a partial upper deck or something that would only qualify the 747. I'd bet the bidding process comes down to which…

In the US government, Congress controls where the money comes from, and where it goes (commonly known as the 'Power of the Purse.') Because of this, any new expenditure must be approved by congressional action before the money can be spent.

This video also features the mighty 956 which dominated Le Mans every year from 1982-1985, until being replaced by the 962. From the modern era, a personal favorite of mine Porsche's 1998 Le Mans winning 911 GT1 is highlighted, which remains the only mid-engined 911 ever built. Of course, there is also the new 919…

I love that floating Ferrari logo in the rear. So cool.

The tail has very strong echoes of the 300SLR coupe - and that's a good thing. I love the dropped-tail look, despite its horrific aerodynamic properties.

It's too big.

A far better explanation than I ever could have given.
