On the day the guy filmed, Balbo was closed off. Since the intersection is a T shape, and the light turned red, those northbound cars just said fuck it and went through the red since there was no car traffic turning onto LSD. That is why so many blew through. If traffic was actually coming onto LSD they would have to…

They could go to Irwindale speedway and use the drag strip or drift box.

Oh gawd...”Unsafe at Any Speed” is back.

To be fair, America just isn’t that capable of large-scale efforts like high-speed rail. Maybe several decades ago, but I don’t see it being the case now. 

Yes, an appliance that can do 0-60 in 4.2 seconds and is AWD since its likely an LR. The Performance does 0-60 in 3.1.

That’s normally how this goes.  The situation is beyond tragic, but when they hired an attorney the attorney is going to try and go after the deepest pockets 100% of the time.

...as a slideshow (facepalm) 

My daily driver may be a BMW, but I’m a steadfast user of turn signals.

Seriously? You didn’t know that many cars have this lane change tap function? Shame! As for the self-cancelling signals on a motorcycle, my 1986 Honda VFR had that yet none of my newer bikes (2001,2007, 2012 Hondas, Ducatis and BMWs) did.

Sure, if oil companies stop getting subsidies, then it is a level playing field.

I mean, in-ground pools are just wet holes in the ground. What a weird take.

It’s definitely a shipping container - and they’re typically designed to be partially buried so you end up with something that looks like any other in-ground pool.

I’m as critical of Tesla as they come, but this is silly.

If this is a case where the VAG board is forcing him out, then I think they are making a huge mistake.

They had to pay out $10.5 million, so “won” is a little complicated.

I’m sorry, but this is a sedan! there is no rule on planet earth saying that sedans must be 3 inches from the ground. Cars from the 50's and 60's regularly had higher ride heights until over time they dropped closer and closer too the ground with the “lower longer leaner” trend. In order to qualify to be a sedan you…

GM already announced that they’re discontinuing battery packs for the Spark EV that sold between 2013-2016 🙄

None of that follows.

That’s not how that works. Yes, you bought a car, yes it has the hardware. Saying you “paid for it” is actually kind of complicated. They may not have actually charged you for it, and the revenue that comes from people opting is may be how BMW justifies the cost of installing it on all cars.

“since he paid for them.”
