What? And then be Force-choked to death and dumped somewhere without a trace?

This will be a big loss. It’s clear some time and money have gone into it. But the golden rule of modifying a car is knowing you wont get any of it back.

So “we got the story completely wrong, but you should still trust us because there was other bad stuff”?

Let’s be honest: those goofy scratch off tickets and fake keys that are mainstays of traveling circus shitshows like OnPoint and Redline are sleazy and are very effective at producing streams of irritated people that believe that they actually won something, all in the hopes that 0.5% of them will turn out to be…

Thank you! It was so loosely worded so that John in California who got in a fender bender with his TDI and never had it repaired would still be offered a settlement. Not so Joe in Cincinnati could strip every possible piece off the car (that by the way, was presumably on his car at the date of the settlement) and try…

“How none of them thought to address this in the actual settlement document is beyond me, but now, two months after final approval, we’ve got an answer in the form of a hearing transcript.”

Faraway Future.

Almost sounds like a vapourware pump-and-dump scheme to me, may or may not even involve money laundering.

She looks like she’s going to hang herself.

There are a number of people whom would consider #1 a feature, and may even pay extra for.

Bad faith breaches are absolutely a thing and exactly how one would assert the “spirit” of the Consent Decree is being breached. It may not be living document in that it’s not subject to change, but it’s absolutely a living document in that it’s subject to the bad faith acts of the parties to it.

The special hell...

Yeah really. Infiniti Q60 or Lexus RC(F) both meet the requirements really well.

um, india, pakistan, brazil and iran?

It just dawned on me that Tesla vehicles don’t have gas pedals.

Tom, telling a lady who hates maintenance to buy an N63 car is not a goof choice. My boss has one. Valve guides and turbos replaced (separately) only to find a water leak UNDER the intake manifold requiring removal of the turbos. Battery went out last week. $300 battery and $200 programming fee later...

I don’t like the idea of having to pay more for maintenance and fuel.

If leasing is an option, the equivalent monthly payment for “purchase” of a $50,000 vehicle would be leasing a 2017 Audi A5, loaded with all the creature comforts. No other interior comes close for the price - none.

These are new Revelations to me.

In that configuration, adrenaline will be your friend. Trust me, you’ll get to where you need to be.
