Not to mention it is up to the (slightly overblown word usage coming) victim of civil forfeiture to prove that they are innocent, essentially turning the accepted legal doctrine in the US on its head. All the authorities have to do is say "Well, these cars could have been used for drugs, you know, drug stuff."

I ad an RX-8 for a while when I was younger. The old lady that lived across the street from me kept calling the cops saying I was doing burnouts and speeding up and down the street in the car, revving loudly, that kind of thing. I was a stocker, too, so it made very little noise, and I never drove anything like what…

None, unless they were time-travelling Americans.

Someone was killed where I grew up by this garbage. Teenagers through a cinder block off a bridge onto the interstate and it killed a wife and mother in the passenger seat of a car, in front of her husband and child. The only reason they were caught at all was one of them broke down and turned himself in out of guilt…

My dad hated cars, and hated that I liked them. My best car memory with dad is driving

“Hey, guys, just wanted to let you know that the bridge is out ahe- okay, damn, bye."

I know this is super old, but I have a similar story. I broke my foot (and shredded some tendons and ligaments) in college and had to be driven around by my then-girlfriend-now-wife (she’s an absolute saint). I was given a pass that hung in the car that gave us permission to park in faculty spots, and for my wife to…

I actually still prefer the look of the toyobaru twins to the F-Type. They look that much more compact, whereas the Jags seem big in person. Still gorgeous, though.

Just a thought, but these cars are not much faster that the Toyobaru twins, yet everyone is still bemoaning their lack of power, and are praising the Mustang Ecoboost’s acceleration. What gives? Bandwagon syndrome?
Also, these things have to go on a diet, seriously.

It's got 4wd, so its practical too!

I stopped reading at “...from a Renault 5 Turbo.”

Because I really, really want a Renault 5 Turbo 2.

Reading these articles is becoming more and more like I’m reading a paperback in the airport. Just the names:

Ash Carter
SpaceX
Elon Musk
Exoskeletons

Maybe I did slip into a video game...

I have never wished harder that I was in the UK, and/or was a person of means.

That's the one.

Where I live, it’s a pretty laid back area, not much going on. When the Tourists get here, though, all hell breaks loose. I watched a fire truck go screaming by where I work six times yesterday, and that doesn’t include the ambulances and cop cars. Tourists, man.

Those lights on the nose are pretty great. I love these BRZ/FRZ/86/GT86 Rally cars. They’re so perfectly pre-Quattro era rally, and I can’t get enough. Have you seen the Cusco car?

I have been looking for just the right set-up. I have been building an autoX car, but I'm not as sure now.

Gah, love that car. Rally lights on the nose would just set me off.

I want all that gear, all of it, on my Burz.

I want a rally Burz.

I have a similar, if polar, problem. All the cars I love, including my DD, are small, while I am tall and broad. Sometimes I imagine myself as hermit crab stuffed stubbornly into a too-small shell and cry a little.
