Exactly, the R8 would be more fun than the gas A8 as well. Why not A8 vs A8? Other than the fact that then you wouldn't get to drive an R8...?

I don't see how this comparison is fair, it's more down to what the vehicle is built for than the engine used. Of course the R8 will handle better and get worse fuel economy, it's built for speed and to be quick, whereas the A8 is built to be comfortable as an everyday car, hence the better comfort and better fuel…

Um. R8 and A8 arent even on the same chassis...

In fact, the two couldnt be any less related to each other, outside of the badging.

I don't get the point of the comparison. The only conclusion I come away with, is that there's no one-size-fits-all solution. The brown manual diesel wagon is brilliant at the daily commute, getting groceries, or with the cruise control set on a long road trip. All things where the gasoline coupe would be…

Steve Dinan really wants to tune the BMW i8. He and his team sat down to hatch a plan, but it was scrapped in short order. By turning up the electric wick on BMW's hybrid super coupe, the life of the battery would be decimated. And that's a problem when the 7.1 kWh pack costs upwards of $10,000.

I remember little kid me beating Mario 3 by beating every level, and being upset my dad didn't appreciate the gravity of the situation.

Thunderfoot misses a lot of points about most things. As a rabid MRAer, he's pretty much a complete dumbass.

Really clever guy and I give him a lot of credit, but Thunderfoot misses the point. This was never really about efficiency of alcohol storage or shipping. It was about novelty and fun. People like to be intoxicated and want unusual, fun ways to get there. They'll want to try it even if they have to snort a pound…

Haven't read this article because the Inaccurate Title throws me off!

1) You don't know what I know... (seriously!)
2) I doubt there is any Shit in Gatorade, let alone it being full of it

I know Charlie is reposting this article but try and use your combined editorial experience to do a better job. Like many here, I am…

Sometimes an anthropomorphic raccoon with a huge gun is just an anthropomorphic raccoon with a huge gun.

I'm really not sure why you said they had trouble driving it...did I miss something? Seems like he hopped in and casually drove down the street playing it cool... was he supposed to do a burn out down the street?

Creative Labs, MS and especially Cowon make far better music players than any smartphone I've ever found. I bought a Cowon S9 4 years ago and I cannot live without it.

This this this. Its not like that sound like like a toddler banging on a pot. Its just that there are MUCH better sounding headphones for the price.

Before everyone had smartphones, the iPod was the only digital music player anybody used

I tried a pair of these $300 headphones at Target...they sound no better or no worse than my $150 pair of SONY V700 headphones I used to use to DJ 15 years ago. Just another way to separate foolish young people from their money.

Actually you'd have to be utterly deaf to be unable to tell the difference between Beats or Earpods and something like Sennheiser.

"Before everyone had smartphones, the iPod was the only digital music player anybody used"

they are terrible for the price, like Bose. There are numerous headphones under $150 that sound infinitely better.

$10,000 per job to the tune of $40 million. It's clear Texas was serious about getting Toyota, and it's probably going to end up as a major economic victory for the state. Texas' lack of corporate and income taxes are good news for the automaker as well.

I have a real problem with texas buying jobs. There is no way a state like kentucky can hope to compete with no taxes AND 10 k per job. We simply dont have the finances to offer large corporations that windfall. And we'll have even less revenue as more jobs are taken by larger states. its hard enough competing against…
