What notes, exactly?

I’m not quite sure there is any other way.

An accident captured by two dashcams. What is this, Russia?

Just bought the book on Amazon.

Not true. 2016 2-doors are order-only, but available.

All in, we’d be spending $31,740 for our plaid-seated hot hatch.

When? Back in the 70s?

Oh, Jalopnik, you make me sad. You pick that video instead of the raw footage on the same website where the girl references her lost Range Rover as a “P38A,” which is infinitely cooler than anything you wrote about above.

Oh and my E36 M3 was an M3/4/5 :P.

As the former owner of an E36 M3, the 2x parts cost claim is without basis. Simply not true. Parts all cost the same for these things. Now, as for my E30 M3, that’s a different story :).

The English translation is clearly done via Google Translate, so it sucks. Here’s what it actually says (I’m omitting the stupid hashtags):

Happened to me many years ago at LAX. Parked at the top level of the structure, dropped someone off and came back. Left the ticket on the dash. It was a hot day and I was driving a black car, so I decided to roll down the windows and let the Golf cool down while I smoked a cigarette outside. Oh, did I mention the…

It absolutely doesn’t. I read “If you don’t register it as non-operational” as “If you register it as non-operational.” That’s what I get for triple-tasking while browsing Jalopnik. Apologies.

They’re working just fine. Most of the pics you find online of “smog” are actually pics of the June Gloom/May Gray marine layer.

That is absolutely not how PNO (Planned Non-Operation) works. If you declare PNO before renewal (or something like 90 or 180 days after the due date), you pay a small yearly fee to keep PNO status ($12-18, depending on the car). Then, years later, when you decide to operate it, you simply declare the car operational…

Thought the S13 may be the most familiar :). The Cressida’s HG survived while I had it. Sold it to a guy in Wisconsin who swapped a 1JZ into it:

An ‘86 Cressida in the Valley. I wonder if I know you :P. Let me know if some of these look familiar. These would have been mine back when I lived in the Valley:

That’s a bizarre policy considering 1) there are multi-million dollar neighborhoods in all of those area codes (626 - Bradbury, one of the wealthiest places in all of the US, #1 most expensive zip code in 2010; 951 - the vineyards of Temecula; 909 - fancy-pants Redlands plus all of the areas populated by very wealthy…

Was going to post that the plate ruins it... Guess I don’t need to do that after all :).

As someone who is currently financing a GTI for 66 months with a 0.9 rate, I disagree :P.
