It seems like half the commenters here have never driven in a city.

Another shopping pro tip: Don't waste timing finding the spot closest to the store. Waste it finding the parking spot closest to a cart corral.

This is the first time I've heard Honda manuals referred to as clunky. Both my mid-00's Hondas (accord and civic) had better shifters than any BMW I've owned and maybe even better than the Miata.

Having owned my fair share of cars with frameless doors, I will take disappointment over frameless window issues...

The sense of entitlement in these comments. The sense of entitlement. Every time the left lane thing comes up. Jesus.

It's really nice when prominent people get old without getting crazy.

I still use dropbox for a few things, but everything important to me is encrypted and mirrored in several locations on computers *I* control.

Of course, all the "real" M cars need a whole slew of additional crap on them to be really ready for the track. Even an E30/E36/E46 M3 will need uprated shocks, springs, sway bars, camber plates, tires and especially brake pads in order to put in a respectable track session that goes on for more than 10 minutes... …

That seems pretty normal....

They call 'em mousetraps for a reason...

Yeah, they obviously take safety very seriously. Did you see how he was standing practically 2 feet off the track while the car drifted by?

Yeah, this is the one Audi that doesn't have to worry too much about understeer.... :)

Especially impressive given that a 240 hp 3-series was $39K in '98 in '98 dollars. Progress!

If you think it's just as fun to drive an Audi, you're not driving particularly hard. No offense, but the A4 handles like absolute garbage compared to a 3-series. If it's "good enough" for you that's great, but beyond 8/10ths it falls on its face and nothing within reason will make it a non-understeering pig. Lots…

Trying to remember back to my materials engineering classes...."age" the metal you say? Is this something to do with the heat treat/cure of the powder coat?

Anyone who doesn't think driving 100+ mph on a public road has never been to a race track where a car lost a wheel at 100+ mph. The law isn't there to protect individual idiots from themselves. It's there to make sure we're all driving more or less the same speed and the roads are, above all else, predictable. …

Well, the people who pay it are stupid. The prices are perfect. He's charging what people will pay.

I would *love* a japanese alternative to BMWs. Infinity, Cadillac, Lincoln and Lexus have all been trying to be "the answer to BMW" since the early 90's.

I love me old BMWs, but it just looks more classic, not better. I'd bet a thousand bucks that that 20 years from now, people are going to *love* today's cars and consider them the high water of BMW design. That's just how it works with any european car. People hated the E39 and E46 when they came out, saying they…

I wouldn't call the car in the video stanced, but any lowering kinda sucks on the E36 M3. Tire wear and ride quality deteriorate pretty quickly. It's not got much front suspension travel, so even a mild spring like the H&R Sports has you on the bump stops a lot and definitely gets you enough rear camber that you…
