Look at the creases in the hood. And the shut lines for the trunk! And the hard top! Maybe it would look better in crushed form.

<![CDATA[philibuster commented on Do You Have In-Car Air Conditioning? No, Ours Is On-Car!]]> @Unevolved 8.04: Seems about right to me for a death race car.

I still can't believe that they want to replace the A-10 with air superiority fighters. Seems like you're using a scalpel for a hammer.

Magnesium? What happens when the block catches on fire?

<![CDATA[philibuster commented on Ford Lifts Hemp Curtain On Fiesta ECOnetic]]> cD of 0.33? What is this, 1999? I thought we were at least below 0.30 nowadays. My focus of '01 was 0.32.

<![CDATA[philibuster commented on Jalopnik's Chevy Camaro Unveil Live-Blog]]> @POLAЯ is taking his work underground. He can't let it fall ...: left, right, left, right, left, right, wall.

I love how it appears in the rear-view mirror a few seconds later.

<![CDATA[philibuster commented on BMW M3 Plowed Into House By Idiot Teen Driver]]> @something_unique_and_descriptive: Why not use a proper term like "having friends over"?

I'm going to tip-cup (drink) some wizzy-wozzy (water).

Just use english, people, you don't need some new phrases to be cool. Fer shizzle.

<![CDATA[philibuster commented on BMW M3 Plowed Into House By Idiot Teen Driver]]> crazy ****ing night....so my girlfriend had a kickback last night at her house. an hour after i arrive a kid in a brand new 08 m3 shows up...car doesnt even have 1000 miles on it yet...so me and 2 others decide to go for a little ride in it...car was ridiculously loud and fast....so we go up and down a hill a few times to warm the car up...then the genius decides to put it in M mode....he floores it up the hill...****ing fastest **** ever...then he loses control...hopes a curb...car turns sideways...and we end up in someones front yard...everyone walked out though thank god...i think my thumb is broken and i have a bruise on my collar bone from the seat belt. BMW crash system was amazing...i dont know how anyone could survive that we were probably going 60 mph....

What the fuck is a kickback? Is that when you have to pay the police off for their protection? I thought Officer Serpico took care of that.

<![CDATA[philibuster commented on Lodz, Poland To Street Racers: Here, Race On Main Street!]]> @mzs: Driving in LA is tame compared to driving in NYC because in LA you'll spend time on an 8-lane limited-access freeway instead of a 2-lane 50mph surface street with concrete walls on both sides.

<![CDATA[philibuster commented on Th!nk All-Electric City Car Coming To US In 2009]]> Ford had the right stuff, just at the wrong time. They had TH!NK (or whatever the hell it is) when americans wanted the SUVs. Good idea, just wrong time. It fits now because people are afraid of (the sky is falling) $4/gal gas. "Oh shit, we should've been driving smaller, more fuel-efficient cars in the first place!"

<![CDATA[philibuster commented on 2010 Ford Fusion To Have Class-Leading Fuel Economy]]> @astraelraen: mmm... probably taller gearing and de-tuned a bit for fuel economy, I'd think. They'll have to do better than the mazda6 to get "best-in-class".

<![CDATA[philibuster commented on How Not To Go Drag Racing]]> I see nothing wrong here.

<![CDATA[philibuster commented on What European Cars Should American Car Companies Bring Over?]]> Whatever they have and we don't have. BECAUSE this is a global economy. Merkins don't want big pick-em-up trucks any more and the economy of scale will probably make it all worth it. Now if we could just figure out how to make the Euro cars in the US to capitalize on the weak dollar without letting the unions know.

<![CDATA[philibuster commented on Production 2010 Chevy Camaro Revealed!]]> Hey, what's with cylinder deactivation? Doesn't turning off the juice to the cylinders create more pumping losses? Wouldn't you get better fuel economy by putting a super tall overdrive in it? Is this a marketing gimmick?
