You are the man.

First, congratulations! Having a kid is fantastic. And, this question is one of those things where your own comfort will be key here. I've been driving Otto around in my Beetle since he was a very little baby — like that first week. And, sure, I'd get a fair amount of guff from other parents or other people who have…

This actually makes sense. I think what people often forget is that often times its not possible to drive sports cars hard. In many places some more ground clearance can make spirited driving a possibility, especially on tight rural roads that I like to frequent.

Good to see you here Brickman!

slaapkamers are bedrooms.

If you are both a Porsche owner and good friends with Lindsay Lohan, don't let her drive your car. Unless of course you want it to be crashed, in which case throw her the keys.

That makes sense. When you dont have competition its easy to get cocky.

Fair enough.

No. 4.0 straight 6.

No, please allow me to explain.

I understand your concern. However I wouldn't worry about warranty if you are certain carbon build up is the issue. With problems like those which are hard to verify and have the possibility of being other issues, its pretty normal for us to tell you you may have to foot the bill...if there is nothing to show. If on…

o.k, now I'm genuinly interested.

What you dont't know, is how the technicians presented the claim of your shocks or otherwise to the manufacturer.

Manufacturers don't always try to weasel out of honouring their warranty. I work in a VW service dept. Really, customers don't usually understand. We, the dealer, a representative of the manufacturer, cannot "honour" a warranty unless we can make a valid warranty claim.

Fortunately, my inspection experience ended up being a good one. For one thing, I posted several brilliant Tweets from the dealer, where I was walking around drooling over the cars. But most importantly, the inspection report was strong – a few minor issues, but nothing tremendously challenging or frightening. No…

This was a 92 passat turbo diesel, not tdi. But you are correct about the tdi.

This is nothing I wouldn't expect from a $1500 Lexus. Have fun.

That being said, when someone says the name "Subaru," the image that immediately comes to mind isn't exactly sparkly clean or rollin' on bags. Shoot, it's not even the image that got a certain former TTAC editor in trouble.

Such fallacy. Much wow.

Oh right!
