As a used car dealer I weep.

The first interior shot shows the precise tool to use on a broken VW: A BFH.

I suspect everyone making sexual comments has their own issues in that department. As far as the simulator: That is flarking awesome.

@tronim: Yes it is amazing what you can tell about the engine placement, under a plastic cover, in a car you've never seen in real life just by a grainy 1 megapixel photo taken by a telephone and presented in a picture size that needs to be slapped into its growth spurt.
Due to the internet, and it's bucket ton of awesome, I can already feel how awesome the dashboard isn't.

A little bit of overpriced plastic and so-so performance.

But the chicks look tasty.

Where are you guys getting 60 gallons, 200 lbs, etc....?

It will take 2-3 gallons TOPS. Doesn't weigh all that much more than a case of beer. I think a Jeep can handle that

You guys will see an old Range Rover in that thread; we did the same thing 2 years ago, inside, outside and underneath. It was positively evil and looked better and better the more "too narrow" trails we went down.

Oh, and BTW; this was done in 1983 with pre-production 16v cars. Interesting to note in the photos in the article one "sport" seat and 1 standard seat.

I have an issue of CAR from the mid 80's with a big story about this. Taller gearing, larger front air dam, even outside ventilation to the interior blocked off (temps reached 122 mph!), reverse gear removed to save weight. Very little went wrong with the cars (yes more than 1 was running) and even oil changes and valve adjustments were down to a 5 minute science.

Oddly enough the cars (at least when photographed for the story) DID have a passenger side rearview mirror and 3 pointed star hood emblem.

No fresh air vent, but you can bullet down 150+ staring through the star. Those wacky germans!

This is Formula 1. Is anyone really suprised or ashamed? He is in charge of an entertainment business; not a government. Good God it must have been fun as hell too!

JrodNJ commented on Circuit City Tries To Install Navigation System, Causes $12,119 Of Damage To Your Car

@scoobydoo:
Lots of people bring their cars to Circuit City/Best Buy, etc...other stores. Anyone that KNOWS what's going on knows you avoid them; but 98% of consumers don't. And they sure do advertise their services so it's reasonable to expect them not to render a car undriveable after an installation. IMO: It's not the car owners fault that this happened so it shouldn't be turned around on him.

Wow.........wow. Just wow. I hope this gets sorted out for the guy. I'm sure he needs a $12,000 headache like another hole in his head.
