    I LOVE those wheel arches. So flowing.

    Appropriately, the handsome toothy fishy-sleek Daimler is by the fish shop. What a catch! Epic find. And that old school blue Citroen is what I always picture mentally when I hear or read the word "Citroen."
    What a great trip this must have been.

    So, you can have side windows in your panel van down under? Wiki seems to agree.

    In reply to Five Best And Worst Black Friday New Car Deals
    I've noticed that Chinese motorcycles are probably the most expensive motorcycle purchase you can possibly make. You buy in low, but parts cost quickly mount.

    Better to buy a battered old Virago. It'll run longer and you won't be in such a hot hurry to move up to a bigger bike.

    Also: Kudos to Bumbeck devising a way to safely drop the turkey into the grease. My way is to get my brother in law to do it.

    Also: Knoxville TN cops are screening crazy hard - go five miles over the limit and you'll get flagged. I don't think there'd be more cops on the roads if they thought we were being invade by the Taliban.

    Also in Knoxville: Jim Cogdill Dodge is trying to sell brand new, never sold, 2008 Dodge and Chrysler products at $13,000. Still got the whole warranty, it's still a brand-new car at a used car price. It might be a better deal, assuming Chrysler's still around in five years for parts support.

    Quite nice.

    I miss BTCC on TV. You've gotta love cars which have lights, signals, wipers, doors, etcetera, which are racing.

    I always enjoyed the first lap technique of drivers trying to fold or knock the mirrors off competitor's cars. That takes a delicate touch, if you plan on not being penalized.

    On the basis of this post alone, I have decided that the next time you're in SoCal, Mr. Smith, I'll be buying you a beer.

    @Six Flags Over Tomsk: Don't make idle threats. I like beer, and I'm going to be in town for the LA show...

    (Regardless, thanks. Hell of a gesture.)

    Super keen and rad. More! More! More! I recommend muting the German Touring Car vid and sync the sound to Mouse on Mars - Kanu instead. Equally Germanic and much more tolerable. Can someone take care of that? Thanks.

    @mercury_marine: Yeah, the song is a bit much. Just got the translation of the chorus from a friend of mine, though: "Verdammnt lange her" means "damned long ago." Neat.
