I bought a 2015 Holden HSV Maloo R8 LSA (supercharged 6.2L) in Dec 2016 with 7,630km on it sight unseen.

Am I alone in thinking the ute prototype is better looking than the production C8?

I see the ass of the Panamera. The front? Way too ugly to be linked to Porsche. 

You are overlooking the significant number of uneducated/unsophisticated buyers. Consider: A dealer, with that very nice trustworthy salesperson and the big fancy showroom, this dealer tells you “ok, I can sell you this car. Here’s how this works. You stop making the payments, and the bank will come get your old car.…

The issue is that the buyer relies on the dealer — the expert in auto transactions — for advice. The dealer withholds material information from the buyer and gives misleading and false advice. The buyer relies on the dealer’s expertise and follows the advice and gets screwed. Yes, the buyer screwed up but the dealer…

I volunteer for a program that does income tax returns for free for incomes up to about $55,000. I think most people underestimate the level of math illiteracy of the general populace. Many of my clients are in the lowest 10% bracket, and I can tell many of them still don’t comprehend the simple math of…

Lol, the fuck?

Keep the shop towels at a safe distance. Small children too for that matter.

Don’t jinx it!

Sir this is a family site and you need to stop posting pornography.

You tell those bastards at Toyota that we need the Gr Yaris, but also the Corolla touring sports wagon

They’re not. The point of multiple brake lights is visibility and redundancy. Relying on one high-mounted brake light while hazards are one has no redundancy. Killing one brake light for signalling has only one redundancy. Brake lights are essential to safe operation a vehicle and this design is not optimal. With how…

In defense of the crossovers, not scraping your front bumper on driveways is nice and so is not damaging your car on a parking lot stopper.

I don’t give a damn if it is seven years old. If I won the $237 million Powerball jackpot tomorrow night, one of my first orders of business would be putting together my own Gone in 60 Seconds list of 50 cars (to be acquired legally, though), and a Lexus LFA would sure AF be on there. I think I’d name her... Rebecca.…

This is basically what they do already. It may not be for the 1st tier loyalty members, but certainly for the higher tier ones. I’d wager half the first class seats on any given flight are probably upgrades.

Correct. In a world where the standard rule is “every empty seat is a free for all after takeoff” there will be melee near first class as people try to nab the empty seats, especially on long-haul flights, resulting in fights and inevitable delays/diversions (beacuse you know we can’t have nice things).

Whatever you do don’t lookup The Slow Mo Guys on Youtube

And now I’m pricing slow motion cameras on Amazon. I hope you’re happy.

Honestly, none of this surprises me and the very first thing I thought when clicking on the article was, oh boy, this is gonna be a chemistry issue. As an organic chemist, I am interested to know what dyes they used because most dyes are innocuous, some are suspected carcinogens, some are outright mutagens, and if…

Yes the basic design of the 737 dates from the 60's and is at the very limits of it’s design life. I think the other part of the problem was the airlines wanted a common type rating so pilots that can fly the existing 737 NG’s can also fly the Max. A clean sheet design would mean the pilots would have to be retrained…
