Fear is the glue that holds society together. It's what makes people suppress their worst impulses. Fear is power.

And at the end of fear, oblivion.

How's it feel to run the same times as a flashed Diesel AND get worse gas mileage by about 10mpg?

Heh.

He doesn't know what that's like.

Every single shitlord with a 335iS to 1Ms with <you name it> mods in between could not keep up with a stock M3 and a de-limit. There is no BMW engine outside of the S70/2 that is, pound for pound, capable of outrunning a delimited S65. Period, end of conversation.

You just need to punch it in first with the traction control off and it will leave some pretty awesome skidmarks.

The biggest downside of driving a modern M car is most definitely the shitlords in 3/435s trying to race you on the freeway/on ramp/parking lot/drive thru or every other location where they happen to spot you. Also the fart canned imports that go out of their way to keep you from changing lanes or merging and then fart off down the road when you slow down intentionally to get away from them.

I can't imagine the stupidity that comes along with driving a lambo.

At least you can carry a little bit of wheelie angle while running away from pretty much everything.

I can't believe what happened this week. I've been totally hushed about in in case something went south but we confirmed it's legit today.

New daily. 2000 Golf TDI 4 Door. 314,000 miles. Built in Wolfsburg Germany.







Dad had promised about two years ago that I could have this car but he decided to keep it. Well he recently bought an Infinity QEGEWHE something and he loves it, he hasn't touched the Golf once since he bought it. We were trying to sell it but his heart just wasn't in it. I jokingly told my sister we should keep it in the family so he called me the other day and asked if I wanted it. As he's already gifted me a large sum of cash in the past I will have to pay some amount of tax on this but sometime in May it will be signed over to me. He bought it new in 1999 and I've loved it and the thought of selling it to some WV enthusiast rubbed me the wrong way so I'm thrilled he's passing the keys to me. Very few flaws, some tiny rust spots but is otherwise clean. Dad's kept a fuel log of every fill up since he got it and at last check it was getting 51mpg.
