The BMW, snobbery aside, is one of the better all-around cars I've ever driven. Get nearly 30mpg on the highway, handles really, really good, and the straight-6 provides enough pep for my needs. Yeah, next time I want a 335/330/ whatever but this was a good introduction to the brand.
The Mini Cooper is just gol-dang-so-much-fun... not sure how it will hold up in the reliability department, but I think I can live with that - very peppy and the handling is like a go-cart, probably besting the 325i, but I prefer the RWD of the BMW. |

I think the '09 dates come from the days when he owned a Honda S2000. I was also there when he got busted for drunk driving (doing doughnuts in a dead end) during a car show. |

As a young 14yo, I was once stuck in the backseat of one of these for a 12 hour roadtrip. I could barely walk when I got out of the car. Worst part: it was with a family of complete strangers driving their son up to a summer college program that I was also attending. At least on the trip back I got to ride in Cadillac comfort - thanks, dad! |

yeah, I work at the IT department of a factory. There are some real choice specimens here - like the "Caprice SS" with 24" rims, or the modified Scion Xa. At least my co-worker has a minty '98 Cobra convertible and one of the managers drives a (newer) Pontiac GTO. |

my Roadmaster was in my top-3 favorite cars of all time. And yes, it did have presence - along with comfort and enough speed for my simple tastes. I shoulda kept it, but the rust demon was starting and I was having some ignition issues - so it got traded in on a Honda. |

it already has 201k miles - but the engine doesn't leak or appear to burn any oil. Still quite spunky too. This truck is actually rougher in person than the pic shows, but honestly, I like a little "character" in my cars. Plus I can park it anywhere without caring too much what happens to it. |

true 'dat - I saw a new Frontier and was surprised how BIG it was compared to my old Hardbody.
And ditto on the Civic - I've owned two 80s Accords and got 30mpg out of them, even with the carbed version. |

it's amazing how cars have shrunk over the years. My '01 Marquis is considered a HUGE car, but it pales compared to this beast. |

yeah, my wife was only two blocks away from this intersection when this part of the chase happened.
GR Police are actually pretty good - they seem fairly uncorrupt and don't hand out gobs of speeding tickets. I've never *knock on wood* got a speeding ticket in the city limits, even though I normally go 10-15 over (like everyone else). |
