The Iron Islands had enough time to build 1000 huge ships. I think Jorah had plenty of time to walk just about anywhere in the universe by now.

Maybe they get into them using the ‘hidden’ frunk release that all you news outlets blasted all over the front pages a few months back?

You lost me at ‘comically slow’. It should be illegal to sell a vehicle with 150 hp these days.

Yes, and this car has been around for a loooong time. Saw it in person in Myrtle Beach back when I was in college, and I graduated in 2007. Saw it some time before that in Ocean City, MD as well.

LOL I literally said that in my first post. My used E90 335i was a lease return when I bought it. Why is that a bad thing? It’s usually very well maintained with very low miles. Mine had 23k after 3 years.

Hemi Grand Cherokee is $42k and gets to 60 in 6.6 seconds. I get your point, but that’s still slow for the ultimate driving machine sports sedan.

That’s pretty slow for a ‘sports sedan’. Lots of SUVs are faster than that now.

If I’m spending $30k on a BMW, it’s going to be on a nice used lease return 335i with like 20k miles. Not a stripper 320i with no options and no horsepower. I’m only 31, but I’ve learned to really appreciate modern amenities on my long commute.

A blasting cap and very small shaped charge on a drone pointed straight down would be a perfect assassination weapon. It doesn’t have to fly 150mph, it just has to be sorta quiet to sneak up on you and hover over your head.

I hate it when my eyes get loose.

I had an E90 335i for a while, my mom still has a 2008 335i that she’s owned since new, my friend has gone through numerous leased E90s and F30s and currently has a 340i that he loves. All of them have been pretty damn reliable, nothing worse than any other car I’ve seen. Nothing even close to what these media cars…

I drive around 22-23k miles a year, so leasing isn’t an option.

I randomly look at the new Giulia all the time as a potential next car. It’s good looking and the QF looks awesome to drive. I even have a dealership about 2 miles from my hours. But why put myself through the frustration of owning a superbly unreliable car when I can have a BMW, drive the pants off it, and have the…

Right, but try to put that same cooler in the back of an Explorer or X5 with all 3 rows of seats full of people. Betcha can’t.

As far as carpooling goes... my friends and I used to always go places in groups and always drove our own cars. Maybe we’d have a girl ride with us, maybe not, but sometimes we’d have like 10…

Seems to me that manufacturers are just jamming a 3rd row into every SUV because for some reason, everyone has more than 3 kids? The X5 is almost the exact same size as a Grand Cherokee and I would NOT want another row of seats in the back of my Jeep. There would be zero cargo space with the seat up, and with the seat…

I agree, interesting to read about. But the whole article being based on thoroughly speculating how many people would have horribly died is a bit much, especially when it goes in the title, just for clicks.

I only mentioned that because I am nearly hit on the bike MUCH more often than in my car.

Yeah, but it’s something that didn’t actually happen. This same plane situation could happen each and every minute all over the world, but it doesn’t. Sure it was a close call, but nothing bad happened.

The last commercial flight I was on, we were on approach to BWI when the pilot suddenly pulls back on the stick and…

Why in God’s name does Mercedes keep putting a dial pad in the dash of every vehicle they make? Is there a phone built in there somewhere?

If I reported on all the near-misses I’ve had when driving or riding my bike, I’d never stop typing.
