Well then, if it does that well in a video game, I am chagrined.

Gee, ya think?

I guess we don't attend the same movies, or your eyesight sees things in smaller pixels than mine. This is the price I pay for getting old and senile.

Actually I am aware that most Porsche-philes consider the 928 to be the red haired step child, and I gather that for them, every car with the Porsche badge has to be able to corner on rails and hit mach 1 on straights. I was, of course referring to a solid and not abused 928 in at least a decent state of restoration

Now I'm completely depressed .... the DB5 wasn't exactly a premier sports car, even in its day, (despite the exclusivity and surviving numbers remaining ... yeah, yeah, it's an Aston blah blah ..) but substituting a 928 is, in my mind, worse. With todays advanced CGI, why did they bother using any car? They could have

Must have a belt sander in it's ancestry somewhere ... Great idea ... That time has finally arrived when bikes need to more closely resemble household appliances and tools. Where's the ice water dispenser?

If it was a dog, it would be a Pug.

If you've ever seen any of those Russian dash cam vids, free roaming tires are actually pretty common. I suspect that they are generally attached to the hub with Velcro.

It's probably in Dubai by now being used as a doorstop at a Merc dealer.

I withhold liking a car salesman until he/she can adequately answer my questions. A pearly white smile is fine, but if it's followed by a blank stare, I'm not impressed. The few I've dealt with weren't too disappointing, so I checked the 'like' box eventually. If I know more about the model they're selling than they

"Brass balls are required." ... My car salesperson was of the fair persuasion, so this would explain her deep voice and fuzzy mustache. My ex-wife had a pair that if tied off to a crane, could demolish masonry buildings.

The obvious solution to this situation would have been to wait for Mr. Douche Nugget to return to his car, then proceed to beat on his ass until his injuries were sufficient to qualify him to park there. Hope this was helpful.

I don't care much for Acura's recent habit of inserting a pointless chunk of brushed metal into the grille opening ... but some designer probably got a nice bonus for it.

Yes .. if the object of the pursuit was a three toed Sloth.

Was this car taken apart and rebuilt using real nuts, bolts, and all tightened properly? If it was, it should still fetch no more than $300, and I'm being extremely generous here.

I recently saw a vid of a restored ME 262 that was still flying in 06' ... If this Sabre is the oldest flying jet, I have to presume that the German jet is no longer airworthy, as it would definitely be older than this F 86.

I remember a similar experience many years ago. On a short hop from Newark to Albany, NY on an old Martin 404, we hit a fierce storm entering Albany airspace. My seat was overlooking the starboard wing and I clearly remember seeing the wing warping up and down, as well as watching oil streaming from the nacelle and

That's my era, friend, but I never experienced seeing the F4 in anger, as my unit was never activated. LBJ folded under pressure and denied Westmorland's request for 150K more troops. But I have seen the Phantom many times, since then, doing demos which at least gave a small inkling of it's potential. The only

That left headlight on the intruding vehicle died a slow death.... I want a few of those bulbs. AND you were right, the clenching came, but all I had on hand were Brazil nuts and I apparently have a weak clench. (sigh) Those nuts remain unmolested.

Very few planes have managed to be both beautiful and gut twistingly ugly at the same time, but the F4 managed it without even breathing hard.
