RedBull - It can also take back your wings.

The Mini doesn’t have to win. Just has to wait long enough for the Mustang to be distracted by a crowd.

You forgot an adjective. “Empty”. Nice big empty road around.

The difference between illegal and non-illegal taxi services, at least in Austin, are that the legal taxi services offer:
Old, uncomfortable and sometimes disgusting cars
Extremely poor customer service
Price fixing, among local services, and price gouging

They have a parking lot now where rich trophy wives can be shown how well their future range rover performs at the shopping mall parking lot

They were prety fun. Sales guy took us up a pretty damn steep hill in a Disco II

That *beep beep beep* at the beginning was the warning for the open hood?

Queen Elizabeth: Shotgun!

Definitely not. The first one that comes to mind is the Audi 5000. It was all just pedal misapplication by dumb people.

This feature was available on Rolls Royces from many years ago, though in a mechanical form. When you grabbed it, it would release and drop into the grille assembly. More for retaining the Lady rather than not disembowelling someone.

Yes. This is what your hood ornament may do to an unsuspecting pedestrian. I imagine those Rolls Royce wings may smart just a tad on the way in.And let’s not talk about hood ornament extraction.

that makes sense I suppose. I still want them back. For argument sake if nothing else. let car designers who are afraid of coming up with names for cars work on coming up with a brand symbol for each model.

I enjoy the 0:47 part, it takes a solid whack to make it go down. Even more entertaining is the time it spends without the top part closing up, gives a nice “oh you f—-ing broke it” moment. Maybe it went down extra quick with the impact and somehow kept it open in case anyone’s extremities got caught, maybe.

‘Pedestrian safety’ has pretty much insured that they’ll never come back. Rolls Royce gets away with it because they have a very expensive, duh, mechanism to retract it in case of impact. Don’t want to damage your costly hood ornament while mowing down the poor people with your shiny Phantom.

If you can dodge an RPG, you can dodge a trailer hitch.

When I was a young kid, my soon to be brother-in-law had one of these and almost every time he pulled out of our driveway, he would tear off his muffler because the car sat so low. Pretty funny for a 12 year old boy. He just refused to park the car in the street.

Yep, it’s a fiberglass tonneau. There are backseats underneath. The downside is there’s no way to store the tonneau on/in the car so you need to take it off and leave it at home if you want to use the back seat.

That’s outrageous. Is that some kind of tonneau across the back seats, does it have back seats at all?

After seeing your Thunderbird I just wanted to add the other two most beautiful convertibles ever mass produced

Beautiful machine, one of my all time favorites. Hope to have my own one day.
