Hey, the coupe is about 100 pounds heavier than this!

Whomp-whomp!

Just for shits and giggles, check this one on eBay: Read more

“Who’s the U-boat captain?”

Doooo eeeeet.

The more important question: how many of these NPOND posts have been written while on the toilet?

By drop top, do you mean the SSR? That was a bit of a different bird. Still, point taken.

I believe the proper form is “camaraderie.”

This is a good take.

Allow me to introduce you the wacky world of Mercedes-Benz W123 diesel estates.

They are a good bit roomier than a Se7en. It’s no Caddy limo, mind you, but you can at least zip up your fly in the MG. Not too sure about the Se7en.

That’s a beaut. I have never had anything but bad luck with GE home appliances. I’m glad my poor experience isn’t universal. Come to think about, maybe it’s been me all along...?

Years ago, my father-in-law was ticketed in a rental car for speeding one or another mid-western state. I think the state was Kansas, but I don’t recall for certain.
