That era when BMW seamlessly integrated the kidneys with the hood across the lineup was just awesome.

no sir! nothing better than all-natural pb for your body. in my day, pb&j meant something else entirely...

So many choices:

You kids dont know how luck you have it with your fancy electricity plugs. IN MY DAY, we sucked crude oil out of the ground with straws. THEN we did that thing where you put your finger in your mouth and stopped up the straw. We did ONE STRAWFUL at a time! On a good day of straw suckin’ we got 1 gallon of oil into the

It’s a 60 year old design. It only makes sense as a novelty.

The more I look at this car, the more it looks like it was the product of an AI image generator.

I suppose it is street legal in a technical sense. Most highways I’ve seen have a minimum speed limit somewhere around 45mph, which is significantly higher than the Peel’s blistering 28mph top speed.

“You owe me a TEN second car...”

The EPA’s range number is an aggregate of city and highway ranges, with highway driving accounting for 45 percent and city driving making 55 percent of the total. All of this is to ensure that the official range number that comes out the other end is as accurate as possible, again, to reflect realistic usage.

Terrorism involves political or ideological motives.  It’s not clear if either of those were behind this attack.

...it’s just two seconds slower around that track than the all-out electric hypercar Rimac Nevera, and several seconds quicker than Kern’s own record in the 991.2-generation Porsche GT3 Clubsport.

Get my project Mercedes-Benz C300 (W204) on the road! It’s a 2010 RWD model with the ultra-rare 6 speed manual. Been busy battling rust, age and leaks.

If there’s no terminal rust, that’s a “why the hell not?” price.  Would be an excellent project car.

TGNA-K covers a lot of models, including the new Crown variants:

I am pretty sure Mercedes dedicates a lot of their frunk space to HVAC equipment.

The Crown Signia shares the same basic AWD hybrid drivetrain that was standard on the US Venza and optional on the Harrier. Platform flexibility probably eased the financial blow a little, but it’s still incredibly expensive to re-tool for exterior and interior.

The lifespan of the Toyota XU80 series (the Venza and it’s badge-twin Toyota Harrier) is curiously short. The XU80 started production in 2020.

Real. Look up SNL Unfrozen Caveman Lawyer. Phil Hartman did a series of sketches back in the 1990s.

Carlos Ghosn.  His legal troubles, fall from grace and escape from Japan in a box are worthy of a script by themselves.
