I'll be takin' the LM002 on a 100 mile road trip to Sonic for one of those real-fruit smoothies they keep advertising like they're local.

]]> <![CDATA[bugattatra commented on A Tatra T87 History Lesson From Professor Leno]]> Technically the T87s predecessor, the T77 was the first streamlined, aircooled car - they were built in far fewer numbers though.

Jay is a true gearhead, able to appreciate the divine, the absurd and everything in between.

That argument borders on the ridiculous. Seriously, I don't even know where to start picking it apart so I won't.

Good lord she makes me hate humanity simply by speaking.

I oncw owned a 98 SL1 and now will question your Jalop stripes.

Anyone able to defend that horrendous anti-car is NOT an enthusiast in any shape of form. Cheap doesn't have to equal torturous.

]]> <![CDATA[bugattatra commented on Ten Worst Things Automakers Do To Make Their Cars Seem Cheap]]> I REALLY REALLY HATE the new fad of faux-five spoke rims that are actually just hubcaps with acres of exposed black steelie behind - indescribably tacky.

]]> <![CDATA[bugattatra commented on Honda Unveils Low-Emission OSM Roadster, Possible New Design Direction]]> Looks good. Easily identifiable as a Honda with some nice VW overtones.

"and i'm *really* tired of everyone bringing Danica's name up whenever i talk about cars. maybe i want to be like many of the skilled male drivers i idolize. having a vagina is not enough of a reason for someone to be my hero."

hallefuckinlujah.

She's an opportunistic whore and a horrible role model for little girls.

I believe you, and that's good news. Please tell me though that the corny pseudo-art deco ridges and shit were also Daimler's fault and will be going away.

]]> <![CDATA[bugattatra commented on Chrysler Sebring, Dodge Avenger To "Fight Back" With Better Trim, Smaller Engines]]> Hey guys, here's a tip:

Next time, don't spend billions half-developing a half-assed ugly car that no one wants.

Spend a little bit more, do your homework, study hard and build a decent looking car, built decently and you WON'T FUCKING GO OUT OF BUSINESS YOU FUCKING IDIOTS.

]]> <![CDATA[bugattatra commented on 11-Year Old Kentucky Kid Lays Down Hot Wheels Justice On Speeders]]> @Tatrakrad:

Ditto that. I lived near a railroad crossing (who doesn't on the south side of Chicago?) with a severe elevation - like a giant 7' high asphalt speed bump with pretty severe angles. One day about the age of 10 I was walking to school when a mid-seventies Olds 88 approached at over 70 MPH. The car landed with an almighty thud over 60-70 feet away with a shower of sparks and clangs, I'm still amazed that guy held on to the car like that, surely a talent gone to waste.

I also distinctly remember that as being the first time I ever said "HOLY SHIT!!"

HA!

Boy that show has suffered with the new season, I can't even watch it anymore :(

]]> <![CDATA[bugattatra commented on New Photos Reveal The 2009 Ferrari California In Glorious Detail]]> I don't understand. You go to school studying industrial design for many hard years, work your way up to be a designer for the most storied brand in the history of the automobile and then you design something like this? I don't understand.

Fucking awful on many levels.

OH NO YOU DID ENT!!!

very funny.

]]> <![CDATA[bugattatra commented on Miata Owner Gets Bored, Swaps In Jaguar V12]]> Stop hating.

This is badass based on principle alone.

Yes it won't go that fast or stop that well or handle better, but it's a fliplight Miata with a V12.

]]> <![CDATA[bugattatra commented on What's The Best 2+2?]]> 365 GTC/4

Most under-rated and under-valued Ferrari in the history of Ferrari. Also commonly acknowledged to be one of the best sounding.

]]> <![CDATA[bugattatra commented on The 2010 Lotus "Eagle" Has Landed With New Pictures, Analysis]]> @layabout:

He was talking about the powerplant, not the car.

The interior looks great, really distinctive and futuristic but functional.

The exterior, eh not so much...

Utah is a bit different from California. California is a bit different than other states. People here are not right.

Lakeside, El Cajon, La Mesa, Vista, Clantee - the whole east county is just full of scary rednecks.

]]> <![CDATA[bugattatra commented on We See One Problem With Your Getaway Vehicle, Mr. Rampage]]> @mechimike:

That's dead on. I'm from the midwest where it's the same, people who drive things like that are good, hard-working blue collar boys who would give you the shirt of their backs to help you.

Out here they're small-dicked meth addicts who drink a lot of Monster and call everyone 'brah'.

]]> <![CDATA[bugattatra commented on BMW, Mercedes To Make Decision On Parts Tie-Up By November]]> Maybe they'll use BMW steering racks in Mercedes in order to facilitate steering and Mercedes brakes in BMWs to facilitate braking.

]]> <![CDATA[bugattatra commented on We See One Problem With Your Getaway Vehicle, Mr. Rampage]]> I live in San Diego, and by experience I'm convinced that everyone that drives a lifted diesel truck is an asshole on a simply epic fucking scale.

Not surprised in the least.

third times a charm.

Yeah, I was saying this works 'cause it's supposed to be tacky as a Ferrari family car could only be.

I think it's downright purty.

]]> <![CDATA[bugattatra commented on What's The Worst Car Color Combination?]]> One thing that shouldn't work but does is that blue 456GT Estate with turquoise interior, it sounds horrid but is actually quite pretty. Sure it's garish but isn't that the point of a Ferrari wagon?

]]> <![CDATA[bugattatra commented on What's The Worst Car Color Combination?]]> I like the Purple on Purple 964 too.

]]> <![CDATA[bugattatra commented on What's The Worst Car Color Combination?]]> That Indy 500 pace care C5 with purple/yellow paint and yellow dogskin leather seats is pretty damn horrible.

Evaluate it on performance, build and a myriad of other criteria and it's easily seen for what it is: shit.

Kitsch does not equal quality, and that comes from a Citroen/Tatra diehard.
