    @Novaload: HA! Nice.

    When I first glanced at the headline for this thread, I misread it as: "The Shroud of Mimi", and wondered what the hell an obnoxious character from the Drew Carey Show was possibly doing being referenced on Jalopnik.

    Difficult to know how to top the launch of the first A8 in all its polished alloy loveliness.

    Maybe this time they could make every panel on a launch car from perspex, offering a clear view through the car?

    No, scratch that, Ice. Make every panel from ice and have a functioning engine made from ice, kept frozen cryogenically.

    With all evidence looking at their rivals today, if anyone can do it, Audi can.

    This would be a more dramatic, uh, opening...instead of dropping a veil--what's this car for, nuns? I don't know why they don't let me do their marketing.

    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.

    I'd have included the corncob car in the list. It's light, aerodynamic, has a pedestrian-friendly skin, and can be constructed from renewable materials.

    Best of all, any cornfed kid in the heartland can make their very own car.

    Not so sure lemon wheels would be good for an open-air car -- at least without wearing goggles.

    Silly Sammy. You're thankful for an overweight arse dragging snobby croutwagon whilst the lithe and sexy Italians are building proper soul stirring hot hatches (Alf Mito & Abarth 500).

    See, you scribes should realise that is ME, yes ME who is always correct and everybody else who doesn't agree with ME is wro...

    Oh shit, sorry Sammy, sorry Jalopnik, sorry America. I'm such an arsehole. An arsehole who forgets that poor poor America wouldn't know about the two said automotive wonderments being they're not available in the land of milf and money.

    @LandofMinos, cast thou evil bum dragger to thy scrapyard:
    You sound like a disgruntled European, no offense to normal Europeans. Its hard to be thankful for something that you cant get for a few years (the 500) Our muscle cars have a certain charm, just like an Alfa or a Fiat 500 have, speaking of Alfa the (standard) Mita is about as sexy as a cross-eyed pig I do like the GTA though.

    @gearhead_318: BZZZZT! Sorry you're incorrect. disgruntled yes, European no. Never mind you still go to round two...

    I come from a land who builds proper muscle cars but the driver would sit on what you would call the wrong side. We even convert American muscle cars to right hand drive!
