    Environmentally responsible of BMW, but expect LOTS of backlash from enthusiasts. Collectors, get your Bimmer V8 and V10 models while you can!

    Im sure Toyota can beat the GM Volt to the market...especially considering how long its taking them to get their Camaro on the road. Toyota will beat Tesla to the market, too.

    Perhaps the Top Gear stunt is a fuel economy joke...."We can drive all the way across Europe....on a single TANK!"
    haha

    Funny (and strange) promo at the end.
    At first I thought it was DD skating.
    But hes probably at home now nursing his sunburn and his sore shoulder from all the fist-pumping in BelMar

    Just pointing out that 99% of the time your cars don move you just pan across the picture

    Yes, the screen is bigger, but the quality is POOP!. It looks like the visual was simply stretched, which caused a grain effect. Quality over quantity please . . .

  • mercator (guest) wrote on September 2, 8:21 pm

    New layout is more tedious than the old one. I like the post box up top!

    I also like Carrie Milbank and Top Gear. I'm sure whatever the lads are doing it will be entertaining.

    The Spykers are an acquired taste. Fugly but in a cool way.

    100% plugin Toyota and Volt FTW. Screw OPEC, Russia, and Hugo Chavez (and Bush, McCain, and his oil owned running mate Palin). Electric cars mean less dependence on foreign oil and more money for us not making ski areas in the desert.

    *gets off soap box*

    New site looks sweet. Video looks like it was stretched to fit the window, however. I also prefer quality over the bigger size. (That's what she said).

    Van watch? Still there?

    Excellent job, though, FLD. Keep up the good work.

    Top Gear was just promoting thier live show that will apper at the MPH festival in England, sadly they probably did not record anything of it so, us people on the stateside will probably never see what happened there.
