You should look up “telescoping.” With a pusher set-up, sitting near the locomotive in the rear may not be any safer.

The rumor was that he wouldn’t take a salary cut when everyone else agreed to one. Can’t find any references to it online at this point.

Fatty Mcfatfat: The guy was in junior college and doing construction in the 80s and early 90s, not buying Italian exotics. He really didn’t hit it big until the mid-late 90s. I think he made something like $40k in 1995. Prior to that, he was just some guy who offered to teach Jimmy Kimmel (yes, that Jimmy Kimmel,…

And here is the R8 driver’s blog: https://www.drive2.ru/users/alex-mx0…

They weight about the same and the V12 is an M-engine.

Ok, enough nonsense. You have no idea what you’re talking about. It was a “factory” GT-R. It has a BCNR33 chassis code. And by the way, one lives in the Nissan Heritage Collection, contrary to your claims.

The article says that the issue of building the road was first raised in the 1850s, but nothing was done for more than a hundred years. This dude attempted to finish the road in the early 90s. He was a former director of a state-owned construction firm and registered a “cooperative” (Soviet-style privately owned…

It was The Car Show, and it was great. I went to the taping of the 2nd episode. Dan Neil, Farah, Carolla and John Sally. John Sally didn’t seem to fit in at all, but the other dudes were great. Too bad it was cancelled.

No grill looks a bit strange, as does the lack of gauges. I’d still buy it :).

And this is why I didn’t buy that ‘85 110 with the Perkins diesel swap that I found in Europe for 5000 Euro. Also why I didn’t buy that Alfa Alfetta with a Twin-Spark swap, although I was *this close*... Had a feeling the EPA would do something like this with the “original engine” language eventually, specially with a…

That’s not an R31. That’s a DR30, just like the red one.

As a fan of SoCal history, I had no idea! Thank you for that bit of info. The only pic I could find:

You need to look into this more. Obviously studies on the issue of physical differences are difficult due to the low number of trans people in the general population. However, studies that have been done have determined the following: Certain brain regions of male-to-female and female-to-male transsexuals more closely…

So, where do I get one of those Nogaro Blue RS2 Avant models?

There is no way it’s the Cal Ace. They look nothing alike. The yellow one actually looks like a Cobra. Notably, the seller was asking about $14k for it just a few months ago.

Very. It was very comfortable on the way back from WA (nearly 1000 miles), drove incredibly well and hasn’t given us any issues since, except for a reverse sensor fault that went away when we unloaded the stuff in the trunk. *knock on wood*

Thanks for the suggestions! Will try to check the meet out.

Great link! May prove useful for the one-owner ‘06 9-5 Aero Kombi we just picked up a few months ago for peanuts to replace our V70. Had to drive from SoCal to WA for it, but well worth it.

Eh, I’ll believe it when I see it. They did this to us once before. Does no one remember the spy shots that made it around the forums three years ago? And still no Regal Turbo Wagon.

Interestingly enough, about a decade ago, Beverly Hills Mercedes had a bunch of old historic Mercedes in its showroom for the AMG 40th Anniversary event, including the C-class DTM car, SLC rally car, an SL73 AMG, and the Waxenberger 6.3. Among these was an early (possibly prototype) C36 in purple with cloth interior…
