So the Z4 is basically only competing on price against the Boxster?

If I have a club, it’s my local Cars & Coffee. This is in Gainesville, Florida so it’s not a huge event. What was once a sleepy, dozen-or-so car meetup in the parking lot of a Hobby Lobby has now been transformed with a new location, free coffee (!), and much stronger promotion / rallying of the car community. We had…

of course Fancy Kristen went to USC. (I’m sure those canyons were epic for her driver)

Each state has its own procedure. Florida offers vote-by-mail as an official alternative. Where my sister lives (MN), voting by mail is apparently equivalent to absentee.

I voted by mail weeks ago just so I could spend today here.

Legally it sounds like they had declined your offer, so there was no offer outstanding at that point. But I get what you are saying-- they should have made a new offer at your price from the day before. Your gain!

Reffing would be brutal for the simple fact that the league officiating office watches film of every game to see how well the refs did (even in non-P5 collegiate conferences). The benefit of different angles, replay, and slow motion could make any ref look like a dunce.

I agree, his performance in combine and his general reputation pre-draft were both excellent, but GMs were illogically questioning him simply because he played for Texas Tech.

but it was boring because that was his only move! I didn’t like watching Shaq.

I haven’t seen that spec but the air suspension must be doing its thing to raise the GTS to its full height. In most pics it looks so low, almost like a wagon. The thought of scuffing up those side skirts makes me shudder!

Yes, most everything about the new X5 looks great to me. But the shifter-- how tacky!

I would hang this on my wall like the piece of art it is.

I considered the first-gen Cayenne GTS recently. By all accounts, the 2nd gen Cayenne S is better despite lacking the uniqueness factor and the off-road chops (which a GTS buyer is not concerned with). Similar pricing.

Do you have to level up in Gran Tourismo/ Forza before checking the “Level 2" option?

Neutral: I bought a used vehicle last month. 2014 Audi Q7 TDI

Different systems, but it’s all “quattro”

Drew you ought to do “Why Your State Sucks”

Good info. The awful security lines at MSP cannot be understated. I would avoid at all costs flying out of the Lindbergh Terminal on a Monday morning (aka Terminal A or 1 or whatever, serving Delta and most of the other big airlines). The security line will often be 60-90 minutes. Other times usually not quite so bad.…

I agree with you on the Alabama points, but I also will point out that Florida got spanked by Michigan in Texas to open up the 2017 season.

“not a jalop” hahaha
