Games have come a long way since Dragon Age: Origins' infamously nightmare-inducing dead-eyed doll sex, but I think there's still ample room to grow, for games to not be The Absolute Worst at portraying sex. Big-budget hits like Grand Theft Auto V, God of War, and Far Cry 3 prefer to use it for laughs or tasteless

This is the car equivalent of the "I've seen some shit"-face.

Says the motorbike guy...

Could be. But the reputation over here has been pretty solid for as long as I can remember, and the study above is of cars from 2007. I would be more willing to bet on there being differences in the quality of manufacturing.

Makes sense. It would be interesting to see a comparison on warranty jobs, though!

This is something that I've been curious about: Are there differences in reliability between American-market (or American-built?) and European-market VWs?

In my experience, particularly the younger generations are pretty confident in English. I was dating a girl in Finland for almost two years, and I don't think I ever encountered a situation where anyone didn't want to speak English to me. Go there if you get the opportunity, it's a brilliant country!

That's backed up by a five-speed stick shift. I'll give you a minute to soak that in. How the car was imported, and more importantly, seemingly registered in California ( your papers, please), goes undisclosed.

I don't think that I agree with your definition of racing incident. All crashes in racing are avoidable - people just need to drive slower... But I think that 'racing incidents' are accidents that happen without any driver causing it by breaking the rules (such as sudden line changes, trying to squeeze the other

Isn't the biggest problem with these cars that the cost of a complete restoration is so high compared to the value of the finished car?

That's a good point, and I was also hesitating to click CP. Would need a "Fair price, but do not want" option.

Too soon?

Now all we need is a waterproof VR headset, so you can lie in the bath tub, slowly lean backwards, and feel the water covering your face as you're experiencing this :D

It's the polar opposite of my kind of car. I enjoy small, nimble and sporty cars. Cars that are made for driving through the alps on a sunny day. If I were to ever own a bigger car, I would like the style that comes with Jaguars and Mercs, or possibly the design of newer Alfa Romeos. This is... Yeah. I realize that

It's one of those cases where I realize that it might be a nice price for someone, but where you couldn't get me to take it even if it was given to me for free. A highly subjective CP, but good luck to whoever gets to enjoy it!

"Hang with"? I think you mean "leave in the dust".

I was just scrolling back and forth to figure out if this was magnetic or not. If it is, then it's a great solution. Being able to move your legs around without your mouse suddenly moving. If not, though, then it's a glorified tray.

And arguably a prettier option. The design of the XK8 does something to me that the DB7 definitely do not.

Usually, when you're pulling down a menu to find the make and model of your car for some website, you get a list of a couple dozen carmakers where the most exotic nameplate on the list is maybe Porsche or something. Drive a Sterling? A Land Rover? A La Forza? An Innocenti? Tough. Now you drive an 'other.'
