I know there’s an article here on Jalop that when the Tellurides first came out, there was a dealership asking *double* for one. Almost 100k for a 48k vehicle.

Oh, right.  That makes total sense, VW buys a brand, resurrects it, and then hands it off to the former VW USA CEO, gives it billions to build a new factory, and it’s completely independent.  I’ve got a bridge in Brooklyn for sale, you might be interested in buying that bullshit, too.

Couldn’t happen to anyone nicer than the local VW dealer that wants $10k over sticker for an id.buzz.

Insulation works both ways :)

Yesterday morning at my buddy’s cabin:

Look at Scrooge McDuck here, leaving EGGS in the car like it’s nothin.

Oh, the 917, for sure. It’s completely irresponsible and even unethical to give me that much power with no supervision or traction control.  

You think 70,000 people all trying to move within a few hours would go well?

Once again, zero fucking sympathy for these people.

Police and Fire departments ordered them to flee their cars.

easy to say, you are not sitting in a mile of unmoving traffic with cars already on the shoulder with a fire getting closer in your rearview mirror every minute.

“but we can’t see or quantify any actual damage from climate change”

When the punishment is a fine, it’s no more than a fee for doing business.  Only jail speaks.

So, they know what they’re getting into, but nobody knows how they’ll handle it until they do it for a while. I worked in a warehouse once, the pay was good, so I stuck it out. Turned out the wear on by body and my mind was intolerable. Nothing but glad that I quit.

your not removing the engine from the car, you are removing the car from the engine! 

3.5 hours of that is draining the blinker fluid.

The i8 is put together in a way that strongly discourages anyone from any DIY. BMW assumed that the people buying these were not going to turn wrenches themselves. 

The new Camry is a nice car. The new hybrid system feels faster than the 232hp would suggest and Toyota’s tuning with the transmission is ace. The engine responds to inputs immediately. You can’t brake boost toyota hybrids, which makes their standing start times artificially low.

It looks like it’s giving birth to a 997, which coincidentally you could have bought instead for the same money (and would probably be a better move)

“the i8 looks like a million bucks”
