A few months back I got one of these b.s. tickets. My scenario was exactly like one of the ones described. Mid-block crossing, not a car in sight. Literally not a single car (or bike) in motion for the entire block I was crossing on. When the cop on the other side first approached me I thought he was just stopping to…

There's a difference between ignoring them and using them as a prop. This was a prop.

Trolling? Can't honestly tell.

Agreed. Also the grill height and shape in relation to the headlights. It's definitely a 200.

No offence taken at all. :) I'd probably figure it out after a few occurrences.

I say Chrysler 200.

Risky Business means the 928 is not ugly.

Drive by this general commandment: "Thou shalt not impede the flow of traffic."

I've also never heard of this convention, not that I don't like it. I wouldn't ever know someone was communicating any sort of thanks though.

Hey, congrats on picking up the lingo .. "zero fucks" and all that. Now just work on that reading comprehension and your commentary will fight right in, little man.

It's not your job or responsibility to prevent them from being assholes, and you can potentially just endanger yourself in the process. Really dumb move, imo. As others have already pointed out, and I'm pretty sure a cop would do the same along with a ticket... you're breaking the law also by doing this. "You don't…

This looks far more scary to me...

As long as we're all happy with our cars, that's the point. I can say my baseline for comparing performance, the car I owned before the MCS, was a 1998 Z3 with a 2.8L engine. The Z3 was a lot more fun to drive. I put myself in the wrong next car and wound up feeling really underwhelmed in the MCS. Getting the Z4M…

I'll give you character. That's what won me on it.

Can't for the life of me figure out why you love the Mini, unless maybe you've got a stick. I had a 2007, but with a slushbox, and could not wait to do my time and unload that turdbucket. Haaaaaaated it. It did not handle well, it did not shift well, it did not accelerate well. Having a stick would fix the bad…

Better until you're dead. Also, it's not better, just different. I've got a 2-seater convertible now that's 90% as fun as my motos were, and 1000% more likely to keep me alive if anything bad happens.

That's even worse. Those movies are intolerable.

Growing up in MA, I think it was something like November to March that they were allowed. Studs are definitely the way to go if legal.

I'm pretty sure it was a joke, people. In the vein of "Thanks, Obama!"

Blasphemer.
