@smackela: Well, those are all good points. Understood. Can't say as I would have targeted the post the way it was, but I can at least understand where Ray was coming from—I know him pretty well, and I don't think he meant any harm. Read more

@Gruns: Interesting point. I'm not advocating one argument or the other, but how, exactly, does sharing already public information "fuck him sideways"? And for that matter, how does offering someone publicity for a car sale screw them? (The phone number is another matter entirely; if the lister is smart, they'll… Read more

@irishman: Your guess is as good as mine—Wert has both, and while I'd love to see them run, I'm no longer working for the site. (If I were an instigatin' man, I'd suggest you get to formin' a posse. Barring that, you could always just email Ray or Justin and ask what's up. They're reasonable guys.) Read more

@sney drives the one with the van engine: He's a magic man, isn't he? Read more

@DonLuc: In short, this crap is harder than it looks. Read more

@pj134: Aw, thanks! Happy to be here, even if it's just in commenting capacity. Though if you ask Wert, he might even publish/release the last, secret feature I wrote before departing... :) Read more

It is, in fact, sad that the damn things look better without their rear bumpers. Read more

@doug-g: Quite well, thanks. How are you? Read more

@OMGItsWeasel: No, it's the CFA logo silkscreened onto vinyl and stitched into a bench at CFA #1, the Dwarf House in Atlanta. But it reminded me of a car seat, so I took a picture. Read more

@Hepcat_AU: No, I thought the same thing. It's OK. Accept your flaws. Buy more old junk. Everyone understands. Read more

@awwwcrap: Actually, I'm in Chicago all the time. Used to live there, actually. Ben T. in Westchester (formerly Maywood) is a good friend of mine, and Bill Caswell's shop is about a half-hour north of downtown, near the lake. Windy City CCA stuff once filled a good part of my calendar. Read more

@awwwcrap: Dude. You namechecked NKs and made me feel warm and fuzzy. Thanks. Read more

@christopher.kohler: A sale is a sale, registered importer/graymarket or not, no? :) Read more

@scottcom36 is looking for red spades and black hearts: Is it wrong that I enjoy reading what she has to say about cars more than what most people in the industry have to say? Read more

Ahh, the M535i. The first M sedan sold in the United States, and the first true M car by the modern definition (ordinary car made hot by engineerwizards and stuck with the tricolor/cool body parts). Shame, that. Read more

@bradledy: Ah, yes, the focus group. Thrilling notion, that. Read more

@RetroGrouch @Justin Hyde: That right there is a fantastic reference. Thank you for that. (No answers until the site is safely on the ground in Reno.) Read more

@maximum_sarge: Like everyone else I know in this business, I'm still waiting for them to call me. Sigh. I think I could drink a shitload of coffee and be more interesting on camera than that. But I'd rather see it happen than not. Read more

@KillerBee: Oh, you clever monkey. Read more
