@Maymar: I've never driven a Honda until yesterday; my wife somehow convinced my mother-in-law to swap out my recently deceased father-in-law's '01 Geo Prism for an '07 SI.

@ManBehindTheDesk: Agree utterly; how a person can make that much moola and *not* be in a genuine V10 buggers belief.

@snapoversteer's a dangerous cliche: How about it? There was a video a couple weeks back of a WRX (EVO?- it was one of the two) posting the fastest run for that car, and in watching it I physically 'jumped" at least three times because the car/driver were so clearly near to annihilation. That was a remarkable bit of

I actually got to sit in a Sauber around 1990, when I used to work for MBNA. I'm 5'11-7/8", and it was a tight fit, but I squozed in and made a bunch of ridiculous "NEEEEEEeeeeR!" noises anyway.

@TheCarspotterist: If I could remove your top without having to undergo a pricey third-party customization, I'd love you just fine!

I have a 2006 GC, and for my leadfooted other half the Hemi was the selling point. We actually drove the 2011, and found the ride much improved. Seemed a mite quicker, too, but that might've been the "stupid-decision" endorphines talking.

@$kaycog: While I'm of the mind that everything's better in purple, everything is definitely not better with freakin' dolphins!

@fauxfruit: My wife has negotiated our last four vehicle purchases, and does a heck of a job.

@xone9: One of the fellows at Penny Arcade made the point a while back- and I'm paraphrasing here- that when you compare the strengths and weaknesses of the two systems it's clear that the Xbox is made by a predominatly software-centric entity dabbling in hardware, and the PS3 is the obverse.

@thekeith82: We're burying my father-in-law this weekend, so I might be a bit emotionally askew, but OH MY GOD that S5 finale was simply the most amazingly entertaining single hour of television I have ever watched.

Now playing

I love lightning, and used to work in the shadow of the Sears tower. Shot this a few years ago, not nearly as cool, though.

@Buickboy92: I thought the same (re: "cartoon" cars). I knew as soon as I saw the headline that the Bueller Ferrari would appear, but at the same time I was hoping for some love for the 928 from "Risky Business", another iconic "dad's car" that comes to comedic harm.

Saw this CPD lady manhandle a guy and whisk him off to the pokey in front of a cheering throng, who then chanted for her to show off her pink handcuffs. She obliged!

I've seen this revamp locally as well, and hate it. These displays are fiddly, and the tethered "demo cases" beg for abuse from the minions of ankle-biters who are not kept in check. The racks will be tatty and distressed in no time, and one still is required to search down a key-master to get at things. And
