Don't lump me in with them. I'm an enthusiast of mechanic design, be it engines, weaponry, or productive machinery. Not a guy with a wrench that reads the marketing garbage AFE/insert other "enthusiast" brand that can't legally warranty half of their products.

 

I fail to see a correlation between people screeching variations of "forced induction is more efficient!!! Reclaimed energy!!!" and anything I've said.

If you can't be civil. Please leave

 

Edit. That goes for everyone in the thread

Did you ever see the 918 there?

Of course, it's a car show. Who would want to look at a dull car?

There was an article about what the most desired men drive. In other words, who is most likely to get laid, based upon what car they drive. At first place were guys that own a BMW (like me) and after that where Mercedes and Jaguar. At last place were guys that drive a Volvo. Second to last were the owners of SAAB. :D

Yeah, I think Mini was in the top 10 or something. We must have really seen the same article.

I'd love an 850r wagon...

 

I guess it's mostly a swedish thing then. Around here they are the cars you get when there is nothing else available.

Then real American people suck. More JDM cars should be driven here than stupid american cars.
