Not true. My mom loved her TDI Passat until this happened. She has driven it like five times since then. Now she drives my folks 2009 911 instead. She is still super pissed about VW. I try not to mention VW owns Porsche.

I have driven a 2012 Gran Turismo S several times. The noise alone is worth it. Yeah the infotainment system is way outdated and they put the buttons in odd places; however, once you can drive it for a couple hours you don’t care.

Chicago is definitely better than LA and NYC. First Chicago has alleys so you don’t have to put your trash in front of your house like you live in Somali. On surprisingly Chicago does not smell like you are walking through a landfill like NYC.

I think you mean better large suburb than St. Louis. Everyone in KC moved into that suburb chain restaurant hell called Overland, KS.

I believe all horrible motorized ideas originate in Miami.

I like Clint Eastwood as an actor not his political views. What does that mean. It means I still watch his movies. Tom Cruise same. Mel Gibson same. Floyd Mayweather awesome boxer, huge douche. Still an awesome boxer. Why do I have to like all of a person that I only watch perform? It isn’t like I marrying them or…

I hate when I get reminded that Jalopnik is owned by Gawker. I really wish Gawker would sell Jalopnik.

One problem with the his comments - people in Argentina are generally white so having Spanish names and white skin is accurate. Not all people with Spanish names are from Chiapas, Mexico.

So people that drive BMWs in Europe are also jackasses just like in the US.

Well if you think that is bad look out India sewer workers. I was shocked that the manholes were made in India. Usually government stuff comes covered in union logos at least in the Midwest.

Except Bush was the one that signed the deal to pull troops out of Iraq. My understanding is that Obama tried to extend it with a smaller force but Iraqi government would not allow the standard American immunity clause into the deal, which would protect American forces from prosecution from Iraqi officials. We have to…

Well you might want to talk to Amazon then. No company has produced as bad of returns as then and still maintained a high stock price.

Deal with this stuff all of the time in Commercial Real Estate. It really makes you question how so many people even get up in the morning. The stupidity level of some people is amazing.

I have high hopes for this. I think the six looks good for a family sedan. Would love a rotary engine, probably wont be. Hopefully it is a turbo 4 cyl. Mazda can build some really high horsepower turbo 4 cyl. And then the most important part, they actually have to build it for consumers.

There is a large difference between funding the military as it is now and what would happen if there was a large conflict between the US and Russia. If you look at WWII as an example, the entire economy would change to retool for war production. Our economy, therefore, our ability to finance and produce military…

Hey remember when we celebrated losing? That’s right, we don’t in America, except the South - where losing is a tradition.

What’s more shocking the picture or the fact that the UK still actually has tanks.

Crap there are a lot of people that hate the rotary on here as if making sure it doesn't come back will make their lives better, weird.

The worst is Illinois. You will not find a flater, more boring stretch of interstate in the US, but the State Police also swore if the speed limit was faster than 65 then everyone would immediately die. The state did vote to increase the speed limit to 70 mph, but I have a feeling the State police will just be more…

This is just sad. I do think BMW is more pathetic than the Caddy, but any time you have to transfer noise INTO the cabin to hear the engine is embarrassing. Please stop this now. I hope BMW takes a clue from the new Camero Z28 - less is more and if I am paying out the ass for an M-series car - I want to hear…
