Plus, I’ve had a fascination with all things German for quite some time. German was my college major for a couple years, back when I thought of being a UN interpreter. I have (or had) family living in Germany, and I have backpacked through the cities there. I thought I would live there one day. I heard angels sing when I stood in the Olympic Village and gazed upon the four cylindrical pillars of BMW Headquarters in Munich.

Business search also is asked some of the same questions the driving directions service asks. You can either give specific information such as the city and state, name of the business or you can tell the computer to “search near me”. Once the computer finds the business you are looking for, it will give you the name of the business, address and phone number of the business it found. It will then ask you if you wish to call the business or get driving directions from your current location to the business.

I admit that I a Mercedes fanboy and when I started off my car quest I was dead set on a W204. Test drove a few and even got to test newer CLA and C300, while I connected much more with these cars and prefer the interior of these over them all. the driver feel was still just as bad (but I expected it). Much more of a “boaty” type feel that I don mind as the drive was smooth and subtle and would have been fine with if I never test drove the ATS. I liked the CLA but knew I didn want to own one and the newer C300 was great but really out of my price range. Again, I also not a fan of what it costs to own and maintain these in the states.

When we put others on a pedestal, make them stars we are deprived of not only knowing them but also of knowing ourselves. People are who they are regardless of what you think about them, and what you think about them does not change who they are in the least it only changes your perceptions of them.

If this kind of expense is what you really want and it and doesn impact your retirement goals, then treat yourself.There always an in between option, too. Last year I bought a new Tesla. Quite a bit more expensive that the M3, but I would not have wanted a gas car in 2018 for that level of money.

Yesterday, “central locking system” button doesn’t work. Neither does the hazard button next to it. I checked all three fuses and they’re fine. WTF?! UPDATE: Not exactly sure how to explain what it is still, but apparently a little latch that is activated when you push the lock/hazard buttons is broken. My husband jerry rigged it with tape, but that’s only temporary. So now the little button casing just sits outside of its cubbyhole, and I use it that way. And why don’t the doors lock when you begin to drive anyway? Even my old Fords did that!

First, determine the cause of the leak. Look under the hood and inspect the washer tank. You’ll find it on the passenger side (see first image below). If you determine that the tank is not leaking, then it’s probably one of the pumps and/or rubber grommets that has sprung a leak. Look at the front of the tank between the tank and the headlight. You’ll see the two black pumps. The pump on the right, closer to the engine, is for the windshield. In my case this is where the leak was. I could tell by the blue residue left on the sides of the pump by the leaking fluid. I also turned the key on and squirted the window a bit with the washers. I could tell there was newly leaked washer fluid under the basin.

“We’ve made no decision on venue, we have no firm decision on a date, but we do have a Challenger of Record,” Ellison explained. “But one thing I’d like to assure people on about the 34th America’s Cup is that there will be a completely independent jury, there will be completely independent umpires. It will be an independent group that manages the next America’s Cup and it will be a level playing field for all competitors.” And despite having won, Ellison was clearly keen to ensure that no one forgot about the two year struggle his team had undergone in its attempt to regain equilibrium, and his winner’s speech struck a chord with those who had witnessed the breakdown of the Cup.

Currently, the i3 has been sitting in the shop for 3 weeks waiting on warranty parts from the mothership the heating system leaked coolant on the primary high voltage cable. While it was still driving as normal, it had an ominous warning of a drivetrain malfunction that “should continue to drive; yet get service soon”

Put the Defender outboard on passenger side for the teacher to help your son in/out of the car. It’s easy to buckle/unbuckle; by the time school starts, your son may be able to even do it himself! (And if the teacher or any other school parents complain to you about the extra 30 seconds it takes to buckle a child into a 5 point harness, tell them that at his young age and size, those 30 seconds make ALL the difference to his safety in a car crash. Isn’t a child’s life and future worth 30 seconds???)

Also, compare offers for the same car across various dealerships near you. Is one dealer offering the car for $22k OTD? But another one closer to you is only offering $23k OTD? Then throw a counteroffer at the second dealer for $22k OTD, knowing full well that $22k OTD is an achievable price (since first dealer already offered it).

8) Amy Klobuchar. Her intentions seem good. Her execution was almost a parody of a politician. Her positions are kinda just a wash across the middle. I didn get a good feel for what she did or didn care about and it seemed like she just going with the flow whereever the wind blows. Pretty much the generic (D).

Then we move on to the “WoW is trash” circlejerk. Well, lots of the WoW community is unhappy with BfA to be sure, but welcome to playing WoW. Every other WoW expansion has generally been considered bad. Legion was great, BfA is not. It not a sign of the apocalypse for Blizzard, just the usual cycle for that game.

The above of course has the normal disclaimer. Most certainly a professional must be consulted for diagnosis and repair. After the guy put everything back together, the guy tells me he lost one bolt. First he says don’t drive the car, then he says as long as it doesn’t over heat I’m good. How dangerous is this?What causes a car to over heat?by Moipone 7 years ago

I need REAL advice/suggestions on a carseat for our first LO. I though that after months of research we’d found our perfect infant seat. The Britax Chaperone. but two things now force us to regroup: 1 its the only seat that Britax now makes in China ( though we will still go with the Boulevard for our next seat, since its super safe 100% made in the US, but too big for an infant )

Should you have further questions or need additional information, you may reply directly to this e mail. Not to the optimal levels like you would doing a precondition but there is some residual warming. So my point was, if you are plugged in, and start conditioning for say 30 min, when you unplug the battery will be in a better state and range than if you simply took off cold. That has been my experience anyway, simple climatizing while plugged in helps your range vs cold startsWe had pretty bad wintery weather here for a week or two, so I parked my i3 and left it plugged in for that time I drove my other vehicle which is more suited to deep snow. I had also turned off all my scheduled departure times so as to not waste power warming the car up when I wasn’t going to drive it.

My i3 has the 20″ tires without winter tires, you will need to use Traction Control, drive carefully and slower than you probably used to. I don feel like the car is going to lose control on straights; its mostly in turning in snow/ice and definitely resistant braking gives the whole car a shimmy slide move which is disconcerting. My rear wheel drive M3 with blizzaks was almost like driving with an SUV in snow much more control.

Oxygen (O2) Sensor DIY for VW 2.0 L EnginesHere is a way to take the cheap Bosch oxygen sensor 15718, made for Ford cars, and use it in your 2.0 Volkswagen engine. This is an old trick on the MKIII engine but has not been tried on MK4 Jetta, Golf, and GTI models. These sensors have been proven to work on BMW, VW, Saab, and a list of other cars: why not save money and use them on yours?

When you’re a conservative such as I am, it’s really tough to stand up and be for the little guy. Really tough. Because the fact of the matter is, as soon as you start to say, “Hey, the guy on the bottom needs a little recognition for his contribution too,” all of sudden the accusations begin to fly.

The new officer is trained to take command and expects immediate obedience from a citizen, and a citizen has no rights at all during the situation. That’s what we saw in the Boston neighborhood as cops were searching for the Marathon bomber. People were ordered out of their homes by yelling and shoving officers, with no regard at all for their rights as American citizens. That would not have happened a few decades ago. I don’t think it should be happening today.

NSU was a giant in the motorcycle industry in the 1950s. For a time they were the largest motorcycle manufacturer in the world. They had considerable success with racing in the ’50s, especially the Isle of Man TT races. They set many records and were highly regarded. The Fox isn’t a super fast racing bike; it’s a small city bike. It does have a nice look to it. I have a tendency to like sheet metal frames and springer seats though. It has a small 98cc four stroke engine and was know for being reliable.

We thought about a crossover too but when you need as much room as I do, the size of crossovers becomes deceptive and you don get the cabin passenger space of a large sedan in a CUV until you start looking at the really big ones and my wife didn want something that big. The big sedans are also a bargain right now because no one wants them there more than a few pretty nice models to choose from and you can get killer deals on 1 3 year old models with hardly any miles on them.

I overall love the experience so far mostly on looks, build quality, interior fit out, savings from not filling up at the gas station and launch speed off the line. In terms of driving preference, I coming from a 333HP BMW M3 with similar weight balance, winter blizzaks, etc. My daily round trip is 26 miles but also needed something to do a 100 mile roundtrip on weekends to see kids/parents in nearby towns. I driving in the midwest with ice and snow, cold temps, rain, etc.

We were looking at them because we wanted something roomy and comfy on the road that had memory seats, heated seats and wheel, and a big moonroof and I still like a big V6 over a turbo 4 the LaCrosse was one of the cars that ticked the boxes. Cooled seats, seat massagers and a HUD were options that came with the Premium trim and I glad we got them I turn the massagers on every time I get in (and I been trying to figure out how to retrofit some into my old Mustang).

My 3.5 year old is in a Roundabout, just about to outgrow it (he is just under 40 pounds and 40 inches, 15 inch torso). 18 month old is in a Comfortsport RF (rear facing) with about 3 inches(approx) left of shell above his head (24 pounds, 34 inches, 12.5 inch torso). The infant seat I have is a Peg Perego sip 22 pound limit. We just sold my Miitsubishi Endeavor today, and my husbands current car is a Ford Excursion so room is not a problem. I will most likely start driving the Excursion town with the kids he will get a smaller car (possibly a BMW or similar size) to commute to work. However we would still like the option of drviing in the car with the 3 kids if possible. Plan on having to buy a few new carseats either way. I was looking at a Frontier for my older child for the Excursion, and was going to buy him a Radian for my Endeavor but now we sold that car.

8. (Saloon)s are comfortable and lovable cars, and they are also the most common body style. These are commonly 4 door cars with 4+ seats. They are fully covered with a fixed rooftop and have full height all the way to the rear windows. s are also known as ‘saloons’ in British English.

Thank you for your reply Nightstorm_NoS, my budget was 1/2 off that, and I know people are going to say that if you have a low budget you should steer clear from a BMW, electric or not. Every one in my neighborhood it seems has now taken delivery of their model 3 has they are all over the place. It a cool car but it is by no mean a city car, which is what I need. We have a ICE Suv for long range, for now. I have taken delivery of the i3 REX and I can say for sure, I would have been frustrated but the Bev version. Consider it cheating but the Rex extender has proven so far to be worth the extra $$. I coded the car and I have driven with 174 miles of range, light foot and taking advantage of steep downhills with battery Soc hold. I can charge or I can pump, having flexibility is sure sweet.

They probably tweak the pricing after the tax rebate is reduced, but it take time and it probably won be as straight forward as (all prices $1000). So you be stuck in a waiting game after that. If you keep your eyes out between July December you probably be able to recoup most of the tax rebate that you missed, but it ridiculous that you have to even consider that.

I never said it isn When people mention saving on maintenance costs they don say, “has less cost of maintenance when compared to it rivals.” They say, it an EV with less parts so it has less maintenance than an internal combustion car. That just isn the case. People think that a Tesla will be cheaper to operate and maintain than ANY other car, that isn true. Is it cheaper than some? Absolutely.

I have navigation info projected on the windshield when using the default Gps but not when using CarPlay.You must also understand that from the main os’s POV CarPlay is just a single other screen.Siri integration is okay for basic commands. Maps is okay with updated traffic information.Problem is you can’t use Siri in multiple languages which limit some more advanced features like dictating text in your native language if you want siri in English.

Squeaky BrakesI learned after I had the car for six months, that squeaky brakes are considered normal for the TT. I had brought the car in for some normal maintenance and asked them to check my brakes. I noticed that almost every time I braked, especially in colder weather, I heard a loud squeak.

I don know, that why I asking.But lets see, for NAV, it needs your position. OK, the GPS chip could be in there. Your speed might be nice. What would be easier, polling GPS satellites and getting their estimation? Or getting it from the engine computer?Some high end cars play fake engine sounds inside the car so the driver feels more satisfied by the sound of their engine. So, that another case of the engine talking to the soundsystem, which this unit, by virtue of it being the controller of your stereo, is getting feedback from the engine.And, some of those dvd players also get feedback from the engine computers, so they can black out the screen when the cars moving. Unless you think they polling GPS instead?So yeah. pretty sure that Dash Nav systems are talking to the rest of the car, either directly, or at least talking to a component that also talks to the engine.

And it certainly a “live a little” situation.As for you, you might want to first invest in more appreciating, revenue generating assets if you can (such as rental property in the right area). Buy the car next year when the same car is only 30k and you already making money from your second rental.

If you live in a single family house and have a driveway or garage that you can park next to a wall, get a 240V “EVSE” (Electric Vehicle Supply Equipment, colloquially but incorrectly called a “level 2 charger.”) Unless you have a 240V, 30A electric dryer style outlet available right next to where you want to park, you need an electrician to install one.

We are traveling in May with LO (little one) who will be 18 months. I am planning on taking our Sureride for the flight (he has his own seat), and installing it FF on the plane. Not thrilled with FF for the flight, but I’m ok with it, and knew that would have to 온라인카지노 happen on a flight with this particular seat.

How They’re ConstructedCabinet box The cabinet box is generally touted as “all plywood” and it is. However, the plywood itself is purchased with low price in mind, so it is common to experience peeling veneers and severely warped panels. Furthermore, the interior coatings used to finish the plywood are of low quality, so the interior generally has a ‘starved’ and coarse look/feel.

My friends often ask me about the difference between a sedan and a coupe, a hatchback and a wagon, and so on. It’s such a common question that I decided to write an article on this topic. If you own a car or are planning on purchasing one, or if you simply have a passion for cars, you’ll want to know about the different car types aside from makes and models. Read on to find out about the most popular body styles.

Obviously they woud say that it was a big setback so they can “blame” most things for it if the development would have gone wrong. As would do any other manufacturer. About the factory mindset, what the point in using MTEK for developing the car when BMW have Team Schnitzer that is a much more experienced, proven team in both car developing and endurance racing? What the point in leaving the WEC after just one season, when the road car isn even ready.

Having said all this, the best feature of connected drive is that sometimes its able to pull locations from google and take you there; so you don need to have every business listed in the car directory. Oh and street view. It will show you street view of the destination before you get there ;)This. Even the same car you can get 30 50K off for 6 12 months used.

I never driven a real FWD where the back is so happy to come around as that piece of crap.Do someone have a video of a fast lap with that car on Nrburgring GP short, so I can see how others does it? Any suggestions on settings to make it bearable?No, that was me being dumb, lol.

Be patient. Good negotiations won end in a day or two. I manage to net thousands off the “discounted” (right. not) Internet price simply by knowing my options, reasonable prices, and remaining polite (but firm). And this is all without angering the salesperson either. Don make life miserable for salespeople. It okay to play hard ball; it not okay to be an aggressive and unreasonable asshole. There is a difference.

5 years ago from Jacksonville, TexasThe sync website has changed to a less user friendly format. I liked the old format better. I could find the list of compatible phones and mp3 players so much easier. With this new website design, I was able to find the link to check compatibility of a phone but not one for mp3 players. I know that an iPod touch will work with it because I have an iPod touch and it works with sync. The only thing I can tell you to do is plug it into the USB port on the vehicle and see if it works.

This will help you getting a better feel for the car balance, know where the limit of the grip is and you might even find a better/faster line down the track.Secondly, the most of the z4 weight is in the back, so that why it so happy to throw that beautiful fat ass around like it some Shaquina from the hood.

I know i have not accounted for maintenance, which is definitely the curve ball in this scenario. I have a family friend who has owned a BMW shop since 1980 and is going to examine any car i might get, and will do all the work. So im not too worried about getting bent over in the repair shop.

/ Simon de BurtonEmailTwitterPinterestFacebookWhen the drivers line up on July 7 for the start of the German Grand Prix at the Nrburgring, near Cologne, they will be prepared for a very different challenge from that faced by the legendary Argentinian ace Juan Manuel Fangio in 1954 when he won the race at the wheel of the Mercedes W196. Aside from the fact that Formula One technology has taken many a quantum leap during the intervening decades, the modern Nrburgring F1 circuit is far tamer than the one of old.

You in LA, in addition to the high monthly BMW lease payments, the $500 annual car registration fees, mandatory $2k/year full coverage car insurance, higher premium fuel usage at $5/gal, replacement runflat tires at $1500 a set, BMW $900 lease acquisition, $500 lease turn in fees, extra miles charges, and “outside the norm wear tear” costs at lease turn in will eat you alive.

Road safety shows, crash test videos or other will show the public road is for safe sensible driving and anything else is for off road or motorsport. Just a thought and I don’t mean to tread on any toes,landscapeartistposted 7 years agoin reply to thisthank you for your comment. I understand what you are getting at fully regarding the safety shows and such.

Toyota started building the first Celica in 1970, but the cars that will appeal to the young prospective buyer are models of the sixth (1993 1999) and seventh (1999 2006) generations. These are the newest Celicas, so they are the most common in the used car market and will have fewer miles on them.

Absolutely, we are in a totally difference place now or we wouldn even be considering the BMW DH had a large increase in income and we over half way to debt free. We could buy a BMW cash with the sale of the cars and money we have saved, but would rather not plunge for a more expensive vehicle until we bought a home.

Sorry about the rant, just a little pissed off about people running their mouth. As high and mighty as some of these women are I would hate to see them have a rough time financialy. I don’t think they could do what half of us single parents do. Its not easy and I just don’t understand how anyone could ‘live’ off GA.

Answer:If it worked before, it should still work now. Make sure the remote has been learned by the car. Then push and release the learn button on the machine. Go back to the car and push the car’s remote you programmed. If the light bulb on the machine flashes once, it has learned it. Is it possible to program the newer vehicle to a garage door opener without the remote?

When our boys were born (14 months apart) we purchased a Graco double stroller. thing couldn’t turn corners for anything. couldn’t stand that. haven’t any problems and I have been using the thing almost everyday for the last few months. seriously LOVE this double stroller. can even push it and turn corners with 1 hand. is that awesome!

The Verdict: In addition to the fantastic engine, the Celica has all the practicality of a hatchback. It is also front wheel drive. Although this is less fun than an RWD sports car, your parents (if you’re still in high school) and insurance agent will probably appreciate it! Another thing to keep in mind is the legendary reliability of Toyota cars. You can count on this lasting well past 100k miles without anything more than oil, brake pads, and tires. If something does go wrong, the parts for this car are cheap.

It was something that a doctor had said to Carolina Muscle at a gym, as they worked out alongside one another, that got him rolling things around in his head. As Carolina put it, “He was explaining his viewpoint that he pays too much in taxes. and that the poor and indigent belong that way, they deserve no help from society or more importantly, him. He says he worked hard to get where he is, and that ” they should too.””

There was only time to discover that my taxi driver was called Philip, that his full time job was as a BMW development engineer and that he had been around the Nordschleife “more than 3,000 times” and then he was waving his access pass at the control barrier and we were embarking on our first lap under gut wrenching acceleration.

Recently, I picked up a 1999 MKIV Jetta 2. It was slow, and as good as the thing looked, it ran like sht. After replacing the downpipe and cat (this car failed emissions hard), I was getting error code 16518, “No Activity Bank 1 Sensor 1” on my VAG COM. As well as 16521, “Bank 1 Sensor 2 Signal Intermittent,” which I wasn’t too concerned about.

To make a phone call while the vehicle is not in motion, either press the phone button on the dash or on the steering wheel and browse your phonebook or call history using the vehicle’s dash screen. Select the person you wish to call and press the “play” button on the dash. The screen will show the person’s name and phone number category (home, mobile, work, etc.). Press the “play” button again to verify that is the person you indeed wish to call. The dash screen will show “dialing so and so”. When the call is connected, you may talk to the individual using a small microphone imbedded above the driver’s head. You will hear your party through the vehicle’s speakers.

To replace the washer fluid pump and/or strainer grommet. If you need to replace a leaking pump, I suggest also replacing the strainer grommet at the same time. It’s cheap and will ensure the seal between the pump and grommet don’t leak later. All told, you’ll need less than $50 worth of parts, which if you’ve ever paid a mechanic or dealer for BMW repairs, you’ll know is a relatively cheap repair.

IMO, in equal cars they are def not by a mile (both not figuratively, and def not literally). VER, BOT, and, hopefully sooner rather than later, LEC would be well within 1 mile. Now, as far as experience, yes, these are the most experienced drivers. The con to experience is that it comes with age.

Answer:It sounds like it is not connected to the traveler/rope. The red rope hanging down. Or, the main drive gear is stripped out. See if you can move the door easily without pulling on the red rope. If you can move the door it’s not connected, if it doesn’t move then you have a stripped gear.

The History of My 2005 BMW 325lI was frugal and bought it used just about two years ago. It’s a 2005 325I. Although I’ve discovered how ridiculously different people react or treat you when you drive up in even the most basic BMW, I wanted it simply because I thought the Germans made a superior vehicle more value for the buck.

If this kind of expense is what you really want and it and doesn impact your retirement goals, then treat yourself.There always an in between option, too. Last year I bought a new Tesla. Quite a bit more expensive that the M3, but I would not have wanted a gas car in 2018 for that level of money.

First said Tesla couldn do it, Next they said no one wants it. Now they have to play catchup from a 10 year lead making them not able to make a competitive car. Honestly other EV makers should be over the moon they can sell any at all. Those poor customers don know how bad of a choice they made by not going with Tesla. For all other automakers the situation is dire and getting worse for them by the day.

4 years ago I discovered Bogleheads and since then, I’ve followed the 3 fund passive index funds approach and turned all my attention to improving in my professional space. It turns my stomach thinking back how much more savings I would have today if had cashed out at the top or even if I just stuck to 3 fund index investing from the beginning. Today I still have over $100k in carried over cap losses I been writing off in my tax returns $3k at a time for many more years to come and I consider that tuition from the school of hard knocks and reminders of my hubris.

I really am not a vain person. I’m not into status symbols just for the sake of looking like something I’m not. I don’t know fashion and I don’t go to all the hip clubs. But I do appreciate quality, and when I am blessed to be able to buy nice things for myself, then I feel I should have them. My Beemer has been one of those things.

Alinghi had chosen to build a 101ft super lightweight catamaran, while BMW Oracle Racing opted for a 114ft trimaran with a giant solid wing mast in place of a more conventional sail. Both boats were impressive in their own rights and could sail at three times the wind speed, but BMW Oracle’s USA 17 particularly so, its wing taller than the total wingspan of a Boeing 747 at 223ft, the largest rigid wing ever built. Indeed, the technology on display propelled the event into completely new territory.

Instead, the real money can be made with Ferraris that have a racing heritage. Bonhams sold a 1962 Ferrari 250 GTO in 2014 for $38.1 million, which set a new world auction record at the time. That was broken four years later, when RM Sotheby’s found a buyer willing to drop $48.4 million for one. A third 250 GTO exchanged hands for $70 million in a private sale.

) My brother drives like a magician and studied in oxford. MG sports started in Oxford. odd links that tie family together and make sense of things you never thought meant anything. To be a classic, a car has to be repairable. Parts have to be available. They want appraisal of their cars.

Bridging the GT only and LMP/GT series is the fan favourite Japanese Super GT series. Super GT features the aforementioned GT3 category (known as GT300), with some custom cars thrown in the mix, such as the infamous Toyota Prius Racer. Super GT also has the draw of GT500, spec chassis prototype GT cars with turbocharged 4 cylinder engines. They are 바카라사이트 very fast and very exciting to watch, and feature cars from Nissan, Honda and Toyota/Lexus.

The Scrappers ship, or the remnants of it, were nowhere to be seen. It must have escaped the conflict, though there was no way to tell if they had managed to land safely or if they were now a scorch mark marring the Martian terrain. That would have to wait for later.

1. Convertible (Cabriolet)Convertibles, also known as cabriolets, can be converted from an enclosed car to an open air vehicle. Earlier versions of convertibles were fitted with manually detachable roofs, but modern convertibles are fitted with fully automatic hydraulic or electrical actuators. These modern roofs automatically fold away into the trunk of the car. Soft roofs are usually made of soft textile, vinyl or canvas, whereas hard roofs are made of steel, plastic, carbon fibre or some other tough plastic.

People often tend to forget that the shell is 1inch shorter than older models as well. I love it! I agree with PP’s that the Britax seats may not work for some kids ERF, but will for many others. I’m very happy with the seat other than the air sides taking up shoulder space even RF (rear facing) in our smaller car. I would have gone with Boulevard 70 CS if it had the Anna pattern. Anyway,my petite 18 months old has lots of room to grow RF. I love the quality, fabrics, the heights on the Britax seats that the headrest goes above the shell for FF, and the easy install. I agree it isn’t the most spacious for legs, but it is fine for us.

I settled on an SE and I really like it so far. I wanted fun to drive and after test driving the Mazda 3, while I really enjoyed it, at the end of the day it was just okay. It wasn anything special to me, wasn fun to drive, but it really a great car.

Starting in 1981 there’s the DeLorean DMC 12, which was pretty much a classic the moment it came off the line. Then in the mid 1980’s there’s the Buick Grand National (and even better the Grand National GNX). A black muscle car from Buick that is sure to be desirable well into the future.

Around this time it occurs to me to just ring Nuna as there might be something wrong with the seat. They tell me that the seat isn’t compatible with the 3 series, 4 series, X1 and one I can’t remember. Well I’m shocked honestly that it wouldn’t just fit any car, especially a new car!

Meanwhile BMW has that plastic aluminum everywhere and the black plastic everything. I’d bet it’s the most plastic of the 4 brands. But don’t take my word for it. The CEO is on the verge of being fired for low profits and the answer has been lower overhead and cut motorsports.

I gotten lenses from eBay, KEH and local pawnshops and have had good luck. KEH is probably the most painless everything I gotten from them has been better than expected. eBay is a bit of a crapshoot since it more or less impossible to evaluate a lens based on a few pics you gotta dig through a ton of feedback and at some point, just hope for the best. At least at the pawnshop you can put your hands on the lens and test it out but selection is limited.

When he was a boy he made a mannequin and kept it inside a special case. Then he found a stone, and painted each half a different color, and added that to his case. He would write messages in his own secret language, and add those as well. He later said this felt like a ceremonial act, but at the time of his boyhood, it gave him a feeling of peace and serenity. When he got older, he realized that people in some civilizations kept totems, or soul stones, and celebrated these unconscious rituals in the same way he did with his items as a boy. His studies on psychological archetypes and the collective unconscious were inspired by these boyhood experiences.

Warhol collaborated with a variety of people in his projects, and liked to surround himself with bohemian eccentrics. Andy Warhol was openly gay at a time when few admitted to being gay. David Bowie admits to being influenced by Warhol, and during the 1970’s, Warhol concentrated on portrait paintings of celebrities. Warhol was the founder of Interview Magazine, and his studio in New York, called The Factory, was a great meeting place for intellectuals, play rights, drag queens, wealthy patrons, and his much loved celebrities. dollars in 1963. He loved to party at Studio 54 and other spots where the elite loved to play. A lot of people called him a “business artist,” but Andy Warhol had a deep love affair with glamour, and sometimes even glamorous people use the same products regular people do.

Road safety shows, crash test videos or other will show the public road is for safe sensible driving and anything else is for off road or motorsport. Just a thought and I don’t mean to tread on any toes,landscapeartistposted 7 years agoin reply to thisthank you for your comment. I understand what you are getting at fully regarding the safety shows and such.

People don’t like to factor in depreciation into annual expenses thinking it comes into play only when you sell. But for a very good reason, in accounting, depreciation of assets are accounted each year. So in the case of a brand new BMW (or any other similar brand) your expenses in the first year can very well be almost a 100K.

For example I was interested in a 2010 2013 Toyota Avalon. But when I looked up the TSB I found they have poorly designed routing for the hose that carries engine coolant. The hose rubs against the engine, gets hot, wears down, and eventually breaks open. Once it breaks open the car loses all its coolant and the engine overheats within 3 minutes. Destroyed engine in 3 minutes. on a Toyota. not something you EVER expect to happen to a Toyota. But this specific model and year has this problem.

This car you will look forward to driving. This is just something that happens with a Tesla. You will want to drive to work just to drive. I driven many types of cars and this is the only one that made me feel like that. Reasoning i think is 1 it is relaxing with the minimalist interior and autopilot. It is exhilarating when i want it to be with the handling and power. I drive when i want and it drives the boring stuff.

I personally find endurance races pretty easy, and super speedways even more so. Your own preferences will vary. With Charger SRT8 I can do 15 18 miles easy. With the Lexus IS F I’ve done 21 miles. The winnings is about 11 14000, which, after quadrupling, is about R$ 44 56000. So if you use the IS F to make 56K, then use the Charger SRT8 to make another 22K, that’s 78K, enough to buy a pretty good car, or do a LOT of repairs. Put both cars into maintenance for an hour and come back and really have fun with the rest of the day’s races. You can use either Shelby GT500 or the BMW M3 GTS. I’ve done 19 miles with the BMW (with quadrupling, about 54000 in a single run) and 23 miles with Shelby (over 70000).

At this stage in 2007, it was potential challenger BMW Oracle Racing and its club the Golden Gate Yacht Club (GGYC) who were the most vocal in their objection to the terms for the next event. Faced with what they believed was intransigence on the part of the Swiss and the Spanish, they wielded a big stick by suggesting that the Spanish challenge was invalid. The defenders refused to back down and the dispute went to court, where a ruling was issued in favour of the challengers, BMW Oracle and the GGYC.

If you charge it home it really depends on what you are replacing it with. Many people trade in hybrids or other eco cars for these, which do not run on premium. The fuel savings are there, if you charge at home, but at current gas prices it isn a huge difference. The difference in tire replacement costs and insurance costs more than make up that difference in fuel savings over a more economical car.

This will help you getting a better feel for the car balance, know where the limit of the grip is and you might even find a better/faster line down the track.Secondly, the most of the z4 weight is in the back, so that why it so happy to throw that beautiful fat ass around like it some Shaquina from the hood.

Really hoping for any advice on my current car leasing situation. 3 years ago my boyfriend started a lease on a BMW 4 series for $425/mo. After a year and half had passed, I was interested in also leasing a 4 series. I found one I liked and we negotiated the price down to $400 a month. At the time I was financing another vehicle and was cosigned on my boyfriends lease. Because the new BMW would be a third car under my name they had to get creative. I offered to have my parents cosign but they said they found another solution as my parents were out of state. They decided to basically do a “payoff” of my boyfriends remaining lease payments and add it to mine so that we would only have one BMW under each of our names. This made our payment around $825/mo for the combined payments. We signed the deal and were on our way. The following day we wondered what would happen when my boyfriend’s lease term ended. We called and I can’t quite remember exactly, but it was something along the lines of the payment would fall off or we would trade both cars in and begin new leases.

Idea 6: Children and Teens Can Sell Unwanted Clothes, Toys, and Other ItemsWith the parents’ permission, children and teens can sell unwanted items.

Since you mentioned sports/alcohol. I throw this out there: I pretty involved with the soccer community in the upstate. The US Women are playing in the world cup and there are watch parties you can go to and have a good team. The American Outlaws meet at Growler Haus in the Village of West Greenville and we be there Thursday for the 3pm game (and the men game tomorrow at 10pm).

Huge Supporter of the ArtsWarhol also was a prolific film maker, but many of his films were too sexual in nature to be released and not many are for sale anywhere, only found if they were gifts or in private galleries. He took a big interest in the group the Velvet Underground, of which Lou Reed was part, and enjoyed painting album covers. Surprisingly, Andy Warhol was a Catholic who was often seen at Mass every day.

It irks me that I get pulled over for something like that while the cops break every traffic law in the books. For example, going the wrong way up a highway exit ramp, so they can get into position to chase speeders. Aren’t they worried that someone might be coming onto the ramp, and hit them head on.

So what do you need on top of the $20,000 asking price? Not much really. Of course, you need the engine, transmission, and rear end. There are plenty of brand new or second hand options on that. You need original Ford headers, but not the rest of the exhaust. You need wheels and tyres, but there are so many options as this car uses the Mustang bolt pattern. Next is paint, which, once again, is totally up to you! Last, you need a fuel pump and battery. All in all, you could build one up for $25,000 upwards.

Moreover, servicing these beautiful works of art can cost the same as a Honda Civic or a Toyota Corolla so why am I calling these cars cheap? Well, that’s because they are. one who doesn’t have a million quid to splash on hypercar royalty, but can part ways with half a million, is tad 온라인카지노 bit concerned about fuel consumption and would like to look dignified while getting in and out of his car (and won’t mind parking it in public).

Operation of the mp3 player is very much like using your phone. You can either use the dash to browse your mp3 files or use the voice commands. You can, however, use the dash to browse your mp3 files while the vehicle is in motion. I try to avoid this because of the obvious driving distraction hazard. Voice commands for the mp3 player include “play artist”, “play album”, “play playlist”, “next track”, and “previous track”. When you connect your mp3 player to your vehicle the computer may tell you it cannot index all the files on your device. Do not despair if you get this message. The computer won’t download your pictures or videos to the vehicle, only audio files. When your mp3 player is playing through the Sync system, the artist’s name and current song title will be displayed on the dash screen.

A result with a bad cap is water heats more quickly and its counterpart steam occurs at a lower temperature. Usually it will spill over into the coolant reservoir tank. When it is steam it simply dissipates making detection more difficult. At times the coolant reservoir will be a dingy dirty look like there was muddy water present if the radiator is afoul from lack of maintenance.

Throughout this whole process I kept thinking: I could walk into any BMW, Porsche, Toyota, whatever dealership with this pre approved loan and leave with a new car in less than 60 minutes most likely. If it took longer, it only be because they getting me a bigger discount or getting it delivered from another store.

Cool. Then, I sure you would be able to make the payment. But I take a little time to read up on “hedonic adaptation” and think about your long term financial priorities. If you start with a new BMW right out of school you be inured to it soon enough.

Remember when X was supposed to be the launch engine of the 2019 Mazda3? A year later we still have no idea if and when it coming to America. Got a feeling that it just not economically viable in markets where they are still meeting regulations (they specifically said that there was no rush to bring it to America because gasoline is cheap and people don care).

Mini knows you want one. When people shop around for a car, they can bounce from dealership to dealership without really expressing they want a particular type of car. Unfortunately, when shopping for a Mini, most dealers will know that you want one of those in particular. If you express you drove a long way, loved them for years, etc., then they can turn that against you.

You need to have it wired into your garage (since you need a high power 240v outlet), and you need a charger to go with that outlet. Usually costs $300 $800 to run the wiring depending on how far your garage is from the electrical box (but it can get much much higher if you need to upgrade your whole electrical box/service to handle the extra power).

Watch movement is the mechanism that measures the passage of time and, in some models, also displays the current date. Movements may be entirely mechanical, electronic, or a blend of the two. Most watches today have automatic movements, which means the motion of the wrist and body cause the rotor (a metal weight attached to a winding mechanism) to pivot.

London made a cunt of it because they wanted to control our resources and the money. The SNP (and by extension, the rest of Scotland, post independence) won’t be giving two fucks about not being in a currency union with England. Scotland will control her own currency and have full control, or will adopt the Euro and have a significant amount of control due to her enormous natural resources, which the EU will be welcoming (in either case) with a red carpet and all the sexual favours the mainlanders are known for enjoying, meanwhile England will have blue passports and the use of human faecal matter for currency because the Sterling will have plummeted past it on its way to oblivion.

Doors/drawer fronts Does the line offer the level of door selection you may need? Do you require a special color? Maybe even unfinished where you can finish it yourself? Chinese imported cabinets are rigid in this area, so look at a domestic line if you are going to require unique doors or want a special door overlay like full overlay or inset. if possible. One of the most prevalent things we have seen in the RTA industry is horrible coating quality. Unless you buy from a domestic manufacturer, you will most assuredly receive a spray applied stain versus wiped stain, and the glaze will be penned on. This is not necessarily bad, but compare brands as some of the finishes out there are quite poorly done while others are quite beautiful. Remember, hand wiped stains cost more because of the labor and material expense, but the difference is the most noticeable thing about your new ready to assemble cabinets. The hand wiped stains add a level of depth and richness you just can’t get with spray stains.

Assembly Chinese cabinets are manufactured with absolute ease of assembly in mind. Therefore, most of them use a cam lock mechanism where the cabinet face frame and cabinet sides/top/bottom are held together with a hook type fastener that engages the opposing piece when a screw is turned. A common application of this that we all grew up with can be found in Sauder or Ikea furniture. There are usually some plastic blocks to assist in keeping things square as well. Some manufacturers suggest the use of glue and advise that the client not depend solely on the cam locks.

So what are we left with? Questioms about each other, our lives, and what we going through, good and bad, if you dont want to share, thats okay, say so and move on. If you do feel like sharing maybe you have a great talk and be closer with a friend. If you uncomfortable and dislike me for asking about your life god forbid, then I guess lets just not talk, but it not bad to attempt to have a meaningful interaction

Is coming from an guy who owned 6 BMWs, including 3 M3s and an 750i. BMWs do drive great and look good. My hunch is if no issues have arose in a year and a half, it was done by the book. Finance companies won fund a deal if some thing is slightly off line. I guessing somebody would have caught on to a missing lease and some elaborate plot to commit fraud, all to lease one vehicle to a customer who even offered their own solution.

While on this ‘camping’ trip the following happened. The old ladys grand daughter was ‘upset’ so the woman gave her car keys to my son and told him to take her grand daughter for a drive.Show DetailsNecessaryHubPages Device IDThis is used to identify particular browsers or devices when the access the service, and is used for security reasons.

Idea 8: Teens Make Money by Buying and Selling ItemsIf a teen or child is a thrifty shopper, this might just be the job for him or her. This gig requires a passion for shopping, the ability to know which things people will want to buy, and the ability to find steals and deals. The items can be found in several thrifty places such as:

For the reddit discussion on the rest of his talk, see here. The apps will give info on any maintenance that needs to be done, recalls on parts, non mutable mileage, how far until next oil change, etc. All the information could be imported from the car through the internet to the blockchain. Then, using Thor saved onto the blockchain. I also could say it never been in an accident before even though it has been. I could also say it has all OEM parts but if we use blockchain we could have a small microchip IOT that verifies the part is OEM instead of 3rd party. Also, a scammer could swap VIN from a broken car to a stolen car. Blockchain can prevent scams and save companies $$ because of immutable data.

Thanks for the reply. I curious, when you say your sons “love their screen time”, can you give more detail? I ask because my son basically begs constantly for it. On weekends for example he basically just follow me around begging until I get frustrated enough that I tell him if he asks again he won get any screen time for the rest of the weekend. If he in front of a screen, I swear I could walk away for 10 hours and he just sit there playing. My daughter eventually gets bored and will look for something else to do, and she never begs. I had some concern my son desire for screens is outside of what normal, but I don have any comparison so I don know if that true.

According to news, Fed hiring freeze with new Trump admin is temporary so hopefully in a couple years when you ready and qualified to advance to a higher GS role, the hiring freeze would be over now. Plus I understand teacher income ramp up with seniority and increase in education. So your $90k gross is just starting point and will go even higher in future.

It’s the same story with the MK4 Roadster as with the hot rod above: All you need is an engine (Ford 289/302, 351, or 4.6l 4V V8), transmission, rear end, paint, wheels, tyres, batter, and fuel pump. All in all, this is a great little bit of kit for the money, and it’s backed up by professional service, outstanding quality, and a great price! As with the ’33 Hot Rod, expect to pay upwards of $25,000 for a completed car.

So why does it make sense? Well it is open, and non distracting. Perfect for when autopilot is driving you. The screen is odd at first (i actually disliked it) but now. everything else feels cluttered. Their designers knew what i wanted before i did imo. It will grow on you. Plus the materials i love the vegan leather so soft and a great feel, better than real leather in durability, maintenance, cleaning, look and touch.

In regards to REx, everything will effect range: temperature, speed, number of passengers, interior cabin heat/cool, wind direction, most recent driving efficiency. in my early i3, I can depart for university (55 miles one way) with a full battery charge showing 95 miles (and the REx usually slightly under this for another 85 miles) and arrive at the destination with battery at 10 miles at >56 mph) when it starts at 6% charge. To solve for this, you have to slow down. On most interstates with posted 70 mph, its not safe to be driving 55. My approach has become to assume that the estimated battery mileage will drop considerably over the trip, by 50%, and so the best plan is to finder a public charger at the turn around point. You can run the REx through its 2 gals, refuel and get another 30 miles, but again this needs to be at much less than 70 mph. When you get home, the REx will be screaming at you, hot, fans blowing.

Your Guide to Getting Your Vehicle on the Road in GermanyThe third item on my bucket list when I landed in Germany, immediately after finding a food source and securing shelter, was getting the means to exploit the autobahn to its full potential. Well, maybe that is an exaggeration, because one would need a Ferrari to accomplish that. A fair clarification of that statement would be: I intended to find something that moved me from A to B with four wheels, would accelerate with fuel in the tank and resembled a car to a sufficient degree as not to attract the attention of the Polizei.

There was only time to discover that my taxi driver was called Philip, that his full time job was as a BMW development engineer and that he had been around the Nordschleife “more than 3,000 times” and then he was waving his access pass at the control barrier and we were embarking on our first lap under gut wrenching acceleration.

Brake fluid, for example, is essentially the same in every car. A good practice is to flush the system every two years, and the German manufacturers call for this. However it costs money. The maintenance upside, and it is a big one, is that it reduces the risk of corrosion in what are becoming ever more complex (and expensive to repair) brake systems but only after the car passes middle age. [There are also safety issues at play, but my point is purely on the maintenance side.]

It irks me that I get pulled over for something like that while the cops break every traffic law in the books. For example, going the wrong way up a highway exit ramp, so they can get into position to chase speeders. Aren’t they worried that someone might be coming onto the ramp, and hit them head on?

Having said that, with some basic automotive acumen and a few hours this issue can be fixed for as little as $50 or less to replace just the transfer case actuator gear whereas a mechanic or dealer would conceivably charge $1,500 to $2,000 or more to replace the transfer case actuator motor entirely (or worst case scenario attempt to replace the entire transfer case?).

Has the EGR valve been modified. Has the DPF been removed or bypassed.If it lowered, walk away. Has the Timing Belt been replaced and when.TBF, if you lasted this long in a 05 Megane and haven despaired at the faults with that car, an E90 is a nice car. Go simple though.

The second generation Miata (1999 2005) phased out the pop up headlights and got a little bit bigger, yet more aerodynamic. The 1.8 L engine was upgraded to run at 140 hp, and ABS was added as an option. In 2001, Mazda refreshed the second generation Miata and upgraded the structural stiffness of the chassis while adding a six speed manual gearbox to the top line model. For the 2004 and 2005 model years, a MazdaSpeed Miata was also available in limited quantities. This Miata featured a turbocharged version of the 1.8 L that made 180 hp and could reach 60 mph in 6.2 seconds. Mazda upgraded the suspension and fitted wider rubber to the lightweight alloy wheels. A MazdaSpeed Miata will cost $10,000 $15,000, while a normal one will cost $2,500 $12,000 based on condition and mileage.

I believe the glue that holds the whole thing together is DNVGL. They are the trusted, assurance provider that take away the anxiety from things like working with a Chinese company, an unknown startup, or onboarding new tech. In Vechain’s case, all 3 points are valid, so it would take A LOT more than just great tech and partnerships to onboard western companies like BMW. It would take someone that’s respected world wide, has a tremendous reputation of providing certifications, and trusted to deliver on their promise, and that party is DNVGL.

When we put others on a pedestal, make them stars we are deprived of not only knowing them but also of knowing ourselves. People are who they are regardless of what you think about them, and what you think about them does not change who they are in the least it only changes your perceptions of them.

I’d avoid the AD dealership at all costs, cars might have longer warranty and service contracts / more options but service is garbage; they will up sell you random stuff and not take responsibility for their own mistakes. I own a BMW in Abu Dhabi fwiw and trust me with these high performance cars, you’ll want that extended warranty and service contract. PM me if you have any other questions.

Shout out thanks to u/MrEdinLaw for creating our UnpopularOpinion Bot!Ofcourse, they are easy to maintain if you know your way around cars, cheap after market for parts, you can drift wayy more easily than other cars, more powerful than other cars in the same price range. It has become popular within the people who well are young and know their way around the engine. And for what it is, it is cheap(older models for the kind of people that want to drive fast).

At 3 am on the 3rd, my sil was in labor, woke her hubby up and told him to get the car they’re going to the hosp. after blowing thru a few stoplights they arrived at the hospital, hubby ran inside to tell er dr to head out there cuz the baby was crowing in bmw, by the time he got back to the car the head was out and he got to deliver the rest!

Today those fuels are still offered at gas stations and the government forces gas producers to mix it into the gasoline (heavily jeopardizing the overall gasoline quality). Other than that, there is an equation that gas stations put up showing when its better to buy biofuels than gasoline. I never seen the equation pointing towards them.

The second generation Eclipse (1995 1999) came with a number of different engines, both naturally aspirated and turbocharged. The RS and GS models came with a 140 hp Chrysler engine, and the GS Spyder came with a slightly larger (2.4 L instead of 2.0 L) Mitsubishi engine. These trim levels, in addition to the GS T (with a 210 hp 2.0 L Mitsubishi powerplant) came with FWD. All second generation Eclipses came with either a four speed automatic or a five speed manual for drivers who prefer to use both feet. Mitsubishi used smaller turbos in the second generation compared to the first in order to reduce turbo lag, so the boost from the turbo will come more quickly. Convertible versions of the GS and GS T were also built. Expect to spend anywhere from $3,500 $10,00 depending on the trim (it’ll be more for the turbo), mileage, and condition.

It doesn really cost anything more in maintenance than any other car if you look after it. Track rods, filters etc will cost you about the average but you probably pay a bit more for tyres because they put out an insane amount of torque (the m54 engine in an e46 3 series puts out 168hp at someyhing along the lines of 155ft lb of torque on a what would be an even lighter chassis than mine in your 3 series), and it rear wheel drive so your car is being pushed rather than pulled.

What I saw from my numbers was that the Tesla does cost less to operate. But when I consider the additional up front costs and added insurance, it not quite competitive with Civics (or Accords) yet. Especially compared to the hybrids and/or if one doesn drive a lot. Of course, with different energy prices, different driving rates, etc, things change.

It the same thing as the guys that buy a high powered 30k Ducati race bike to putt around town on. Everyone is entitled to do as they wish and if it worth it to you then awesome, I personally just find the notion silly. I bought a 2016 BMW 3 series slightly used with 1,000 miles on it.

Monika, I was in line at Target and the guy couldnt figure anything out. I had nonfood items but you can ring it all as 1 transaction and it will say whats not included. He kept seperating everything and making things so much harder/much longer than they had to. After I repeated that it was fine to do 1 transaction numerous times, I just told him to suspend it and that I was going to find someone who knew what they were doing. I left his lane in tears and went to customer service and complained. I spoke w a manager and she felt bad and rerung everything right but it made me feel like shit.

Since trying an electric car in 2013 (a Smart ED of all things) I have never looked back. I am on my 6th electric car now, a Tesla Model S P100D. All the gas cars feel like a different century to me. Nostalgic antiques like steam trains, fax machines, and AOL. Huffing and puffing with all the heat and noise. A Rube Goldberg machine that wastes a lot of resources. It’s not just Tesla. I felt the same way about the Smart ED and our BMW i3. Tesla has just taken it the furthest without the legacy of 100 years of history and existing encumbrances. A true disruptor.

Backs Against the WallEverybody was doing badly, but AMC was doing the worst. The Arab oil embargo had actually meant AMC increased sales by 15% against an industry fall of 21% as customers scrambled for small cars, but then the company had been crippled by a three week strike in the September.

It’s hard to deal with comments, but try to have some compassion that you have not been shown by them. It’s really hard to be struggling when you do work a decent paid job. When the economy gets bad, many people turn on what they see as physical manifestations of what is being taken out of their pockets.

First said Tesla couldn do it, Next they said no one wants it. Now they have to play catchup from a 10 year lead making them not able to make a competitive car. Honestly other EV makers should be over the moon they can sell any at all. Those poor customers don know how bad of a choice they made by not going with Tesla. For all other automakers the situation is dire and getting worse for them by the day.

So we have NOS, Engine and Body as the top three, Tires and Trans are almost useless, and a time gap of 0.203s between NOS and Trans. Overall, not very impressive numbers from these S6 parts but this is expected as a fully max’d LB M3 GTS has a max evo tune that is just over.6s quicker than S5 with full fusions.

R12s were used by the German army at the outbreak of the second world war and succeeded by the R75, which was purpose built for military use (despite about 36,000 having been made, the R12 has become highly collectable, the best examples commanding up to 25,000). But with the Munich factory flattened by air raids and motorcycle production forbidden under Germany’s terms of surrender, it wasn’t until 1948 that BMW recommenced building bikes, with first the no frills, single cylinder 250cc R24 and then, from1949 on, a range of boxer twins that included the R51/2, R67 and sporting R68.

I think that what people are miffed by. People talking about their “attainable dream car” could be talking about something interesting or uncommon that they been looking for and saving towards for years (good), or just a pretty standard hot hatch everyone already knows about or even a fucking passenger van apparently (bad). The term kind of looses all meaning when people just slap it on a car that they bought because they liked it and could afford it, not a car that is actually aspirational to most people. It doesn even need to be expensive to be aspirational, it could be something unique and uncommon like a rare older model that hard to find or someone importing a car they wanted as a kid but was never sold in their country, but a Fiesta and a Transit? It just a bit lame IMO, and opening a post talking about dream cars in the title only to find out it referring to those two is pretty naff.

Plus, I’ve had a fascination with all things German for quite some time. German was my college major for a couple years, back when I thought of being a UN interpreter. I have (or had) family living in Germany, and I have backpacked through the cities there. I thought I would live there one day. I heard angels sing when I stood in the Olympic Village and gazed upon the four cylindrical pillars of BMW Headquarters in Munich.

15) Beto O All talk no substance. You absolutely could tell he way out of his depth, and had to rely on stories and being relatable. That great for a House rep, OK for a Senator, absolutely not enough for President. Presidents must have past results and plan for future results and a story is far from both. He didn even bother adapting after he visibly realized his strategy wasn working and just gave up.

Hi, you are on my profile page! Ever since I was a kid, I have this gift of understanding people, a gift which I carried on until today. I believe that every person has a good heart and we all have potential to care for each other. I also like studying different culture and I had the opportunity to travel to different places around the world.

Defeating the Swiss marked a new start for the competition, placing the future of the event in the cooperation between BMW Oracle, the GGYC and the new Challenger of Record, the Club Nautico di Roma and its Mascalzone Latino team. Unlike the invalid Spanish club of 2007, this Italian team has been involved in America’s Cup racing since 2002. Could the Cup recover and get back on track?

So in the last 3 weeks my ute has broken in 3 different ways, and is currently still out of commission. Can complain too much though, apart from a lose spark plug wire it been rock solid for about 온라인카지노 a year and a half from the engine swap until now, and the problems are only minor in the grand scheme of things.

As we had owned a Honda Civic that we got 210,000 mi. out of, and drove for free for 11 yrs., and after just purchasing another one for my wife, which she loves, I felt that I had to investigate the Fit, and compare it to other, similar types of vehicles.

She found out during the filming of Evita that she was pregnant with her daughter Lourdes, with Carlos Leon, her personal trainer. Madonna is not a terrific singer, or the most beautiful woman around, but she knows how to market herself, and how to handle her money. When she wrote her 1998 album Ray of Light, she was interested in Eastern Mysticism and the Kabbalah, and claims that her perception of life changed quite a bit.

The Mazda Miata earned its spot on top of this list for one reason: It is the best “driver’s car” of the bunch the one that dominates Autocross events nationwide and single handedly resurrected the old fashioned British Roadster concept. The Miata is anything but practical, and, for those living in northern climates, it won’t be particularly great to drive in the snow, but the handling and rear wheel drive brilliance all summer long will more than make up for it. In fact, many Miatas in northern areas such as “Minnesnowta” and Wisconsin have been summer only cars since they were first purchased. Therefore, you’ll be able to find a purist driver’s car with relatively few miles on it (considering the age) on a reasonable budget.

The third generation Integra featured a major update in styling you either love it or hate it. The base engine was upgraded to a 142 hp 1.8 L I4, while the GS R engine got an upgrade to 170 hp and kept the VTEC. In 1997, the Integra Type R came to the United States with its upgraded version of the GS R’s engine making 195 hp and revving safely up to 8400 rpm much higher than any other streetcar of the time. It’ll be tough to find one, but if you do, go for it! The limited quantity available of the Type R (750 imported to North America in 1997) is the main reason the Integra isn’t higher on the list. It’s often considered to be one of the best handling FWD cars in the world even compared to modern designs. Expect to pay anywhere from 3 9k there is a wide range of conditions and levels of modification, so you should be able to find what you’re looking for, given time. Obviously, the GS R and Type R models will be more expensive and much harder to find (especially unmodified), but if you find the right car, you could end up a very happy buyer.

The price for this stunning kit? How about $21,000! Only $1,000 more than the MK4 Roadster, which you’ll find is a bargain. Again, you’ll need a Ford engine, transmission, rear end, paint, wheels, tyres, battery, and fuel pump, so expect to pay $26,000 and up. Although if you are going to buy one, why not spend a little extra and build a 302 Boss Mustang engine? It would work so well in this!

By my math, with the downpayment in 7 years, this would have lost you about $60k even at 5% interest on the money if you invested it. Is the BMW worth the $60k setback? My personal answer is no. I’d personally get a 15 20k certified used car you’d have a lot of options then.

You will save money using the powder and your baby won’t know the difference!1Motorcycles, Sports Bikes RidingLowering Your Kawasaki ZX 14 3 months agoI bought my 2009 ZX 14 Special Edition with no intent to modify or change anything. Well, it started with just some small mods, like chrome pegs, chrome clutch cover, etc.

Currently, the i3 has been sitting in the shop for 3 weeks waiting on warranty parts from the mothership the heating system leaked coolant on the primary high voltage cable. While it was still driving as normal, it had an ominous warning of a drivetrain malfunction that “should continue to drive; yet get service soon”

Questionable driving, to say the least. That not to say that there aren LMP drivers who don know what they doing many don but my own perspective of being someone who loves racing both GT cars and prototypes has seen a lot more issues with the GT traffic being completely unaware of oncoming cars or outright blocking them in dangerous fashion than some of the questionable overtakes I see from prototype drivers.Without turning this post into a bit of a rant, getting proper multiclass experience is vital if you plan on racing GTE cars, moreso if you want to race them in more than just IMSA.

I was driving on a country road at 2 ocklock in the morning, and just as I am turning onto the highway, this car comes flying up behind me, with no headlights, no nothing. Buddy you didn’t pull me over, I pulled over and you pulled in behind me. I’m not blind. I was trying to get out of your way, I thought you were going to smash into my car, and I pulled over.

The MP4 12C is a shade quicker and lighter than the 458 (Thanks to a 3.8 Litre Twin Turbo V8 instead of the 458’s 4.5 L V8) and also boasts daily driving practicality but being mated to softer suspensions. The McLaren also has stylish butterfly doors and is available in striking colour combinations (most notably the signature McLaren Orange Metallic) and the cockpit layout is more accessible and refined than the Ferrari’s.

But I was in their face and calling them “pigs”, because they were. A broken nose and red knuckles proved I fought back. So my arrests,,,, were a badge of honor, and I taunted them to keep me longer and get me a lawyer!! I sure as hell never claimed innocence as a defense, I claimed power to the people.

He launched the first official White House website, ushering in a new era during his time there. Clinton won a second term in 1996, and with Ted Kennedy, Orrin Hatch, and Hillary, passed the State’s Children’s Health Insurance Program, (CHIP), the largest success in health care reform in his presidency. Hillary also helped usher the Adoption and Safe Families Act and Foster Care Independence Act through Congress.

4 years ago I discovered Bogleheads and since then, I’ve followed the 3 fund passive index funds approach and turned all my attention to improving in my professional space. It turns my stomach thinking back how much more savings I would have today if had cashed out at the top or even if I just stuck to 3 fund index investing from the beginning. Today I still have over $100k in carried over cap losses I been writing off in my tax returns $3k at a time for many more years to come and I consider that tuition from the school of hard knocks and reminders of my hubris.

You put off running an errand just so you can run it in the i3 instead of the old gas car. I got a supercharged jag in my garage that gathers dust, because frankly, I rather be driving the i3. And I say that not just because it cheaper although it STAGGERINGLY cheaper to drive the little electric car.

The AMC Pacer ArrivesWhen I first went to North America aged sixteen in the summer of 1975, my parents and I were met at Toronto airport by my Dad’s cousin, the wonderfully craggy, frail, chain smoking Cliff and his trusty 1965 AMC Rambler Cross Country. When we returned the following year Cousin Cliff had suffered a series of heart attacks, had a triple bypass operation, was still smoking and had ditched the Rambler for something he referred to as his “moon buggy”; the amazing bubble on wheels that was his brand new beige AMC.

In order to connect to the OBD II port and read the ECU information, you need an adapter and a reader (or a single unit that does both, see below). There are a lot of options out there, but here I am reviewing a very inexpensive Bluetooth adapter that you can then connect to with an Android powered smartphone and use an app called Torque Pro to read the information. I’ve also included below a link to an all in one unit for those who don’t have or don’t want to use a smartphone.

On top of that, all the circlejerking about Blizzard in this thread is also really aggravating. “After Diablo Immortal, this is the last straw. Fuck you, Blizzard, I out.” Blizzard has all but said publicly they working on Diablo 4, but that not good enough I guess. They also have to not work on anything else you personally think you might not like. If they are working on Diablo 4, but aren far enough along to have anything to show, but they also paying a third party developer to make a mobile game, and that mobile game is much farther along, why shouldn they show it? And every idiot Diablo fan in this thread talking shit will fucking download it and play the shit out of it, too.

One other point to remember: If you have an acceptable foreign license, you can register your vehicle without an issue. However, be aware that in Germany there are time limits for driving under foreign licenses. Some licenses (such as Australian licenses) can be exchanged only within the time period. Once the prescribed time period expires, you will be required to learn to drive through the German system. This will take months of lessons and cost you a small fortune. Add to that the requirement of passing an exam that is written in German and you have every incentive you need to exchange your license in a timely manner. They also demanded to see my original Anmeldung paper, signed stamped by the city to prove my residential address.

I am glad I don have monthly payments now but looking back, buying a BMW was a great decision because I was 24 and I could afford it. Now, after marriage I don see myself buying a German car. I want peace of mind and that something that a German car does not give you. When I look at my wife Camry and her maintenance costs, I wonder is it worth it?

Then I would get an awd suv/van that seats six as your second car, and trade out cars with him for the season. I just really don’t think it will add up to be worth having a special rwd bmw for summer, that you can’t even fit the whole family in if needed as a back up car.

Ugh, I went to Babies R us and tried car seats and out of the 12 that I liked, NONE of them fit in the rear facing position in the center of the back seat. I had to put both front seats so far forward to get the baby seat at 45 degrees that there was no way for me to get in behind the wheel (I’m tall, so I need the seat about 2/3rds of the way back). I called 3 bmw dealerships and they could not care less. Now I know I will not be buying another BMW for my next car (customer service is important), but what should I do now?

Is coming from an guy who owned 6 BMWs, including 3 M3s and an 750i. BMWs do drive great and look good. My hunch is if no issues have arose in a year and a half, it was done by the book. Finance companies won fund a deal if some thing is slightly off line. I guessing somebody would have caught on to a missing lease and some elaborate plot to commit fraud, all to lease one vehicle to a customer who even offered their own solution.

On the Tesla you need things like wipers, alignments, filters, tire rotation, brake fluid, battery coolant. From what I understand, one should expect a battery coolant service visit to run in the $450 650 range every 4yrs. Anyway, those were the kinds of things that went into the maintenance cost estimates.

Shout out thanks to u/MrEdinLaw for creating our UnpopularOpinion Bot!Ofcourse, they are easy to maintain if you know your way around cars, cheap after market for parts, you can drift wayy more easily than other cars, more powerful than other cars in the same price range. It has become popular within the people who well are young and know their way around the engine. And for what it is, it is cheap(older models for the kind of people that want to drive fast).

1. Ultima GTR720The UltimaGTR720 isn’t just fast; it’s one of the fastest cars in the world! How does 0 100 0 mph in 9.4 seconds sound? Well, that time is a couple of SECONDS faster than a Ferrari Enzo! If that’s not good enough for you, how about it being a sub 10 second 1/4 mile drag car!

Kids Need Money, Too! Simple Ways Kids Can Earn MoneyFor all of the awesome kids out there who have a little extra spare time and an entrepreneurial mind that seems to never rest, these achievable money making ideas can help them to not only earn some extra hard earned cash for that epic bowling alley birthday party or glamorous night out to the movie theater, but help them broaden their young minds for the bright future ahead.

Bill became the youngest Governor of AK at age 32, and was re elected, after skipping a term, to keep the title for ten more years. He tried to make education a priority, and with Hillary, a lawyer working on issues concerning women and children’s issues, they became a power couple. When he ran for President with Al Gore, he often said that with he and Hillary, the American people would be “getting two for one”, as she was a partner in the Rose Law Firm and very involved in political issues. Clinton presided over the longest peacetime period of economic expansion in American history. He passed the North American Free Trade Treaty. He made family leave a priority, signing the Family and Medical Leave Act of 1993, making sure people could leave work for a period to care for any family member who needed their attention without losing their job.

I would test the car seats out in the BMW before buying. Install the forward facing radian in the third row and see how it fits. Also climb back there yourself and your husband and see if you fit and would want to sit back there, or if it will be a useful third row for anyone.

Ironically, the original circuit was built to improve safety in the Eifelrennen races that, earlier in the decade, had taken place on public roads running through the Eifel mountains. Intended both to provide thrilling competition and to showcase German engineering talent, the Nrburgring quickly became legendary and the drivers who mastered it came to be known as the “Ringmeisters”, counting among their number names such as Tazio Nuvolari, Rudolf Caracciola and, postwar, Alberto Ascari, Stirling Moss and Jackie Stewart.

The 5 series is a real drivers car and feeds road data better than the Benz of the same years.The Porsche is brilliant for parts delivery straight from the factory and are a delight to work on if you love fine German engineering.I have rebuilt a 911 carrera motor in the middle of the Northern Territory jungle.

So the best advice I can give you is to just keep going, even if you think you reached your limit you do it a tiny bit better each lap.First, get comfortable with the car, do some fast laps followed by some laps, where you try to drift the car a bit and take corners completely different like you used to.

Unlike the 458 Italia and the McLaren, the R8 is available in a choice of two engines (either a 4.2 Litre V8 which I believe is derived from the one used in the RS4 or a Lamborghini derived 5 Litre V10). The R8 is also available either a soft top Spyder Convertible or a hard top is only available in limited colors (with white and black R8’s with Carbon fiber tinsel on their body paints being the most popular choice with buyers).

Maybe that where we went wrong. We haven looked at those, just the german ones. That makes sense though, we both drive Japanese cars now and we LOVE them. SO reliable, SO cheap to service, and the luxury features are on par with the 2013 BMW she had (but probably not what they offer now).We also 온라인카지노 started to rethink how we spend our money too, now that we a little older.

When you become a parent, something inside of you fundamentally changes. You don matter anymore. Your child is all that matters. I always thought this was bullshit before I had kids, just something people said because society guilted them into it, but it not. There definitely something that changes. It not to say you can dislike your own child at times or there aren major difficulties in parenting that makes you sometimes wish you just stayed single and celebrate and just did whatever you wanted, but in spite of all that, the feeling remains.

Road safety shows, crash test videos or other will show the public road is for safe sensible driving and anything else is for off road or motorsport. Just a thought and I don’t mean to tread on any toes,landscapeartistposted 7 years agoin reply to thisthank you for your comment. I understand what you are getting at fully regarding the safety shows and such.

Have a question in my mind and wanted to take advice from you. I got a really good offer from BMW 2018 330i Msport for 150.000 aed. But what am i am thinking is that actually I do not need a Msport package and on the other hand in 2019 the car is going to change completely.

Mazda currently cannot meet the 2021 emission regulation in its home country of Japan. I am under the impression that they were hoping that this engine would allow them to do it, but so far only the base sedan with a stick manages to get under the mandated 96g co2 per km. they need their whole fleet to average that.

He was recovering from gall bladder surgery when he suffered a heart arrhythmia and passed away suddenly in 1987 (perhaps the fears of hospitals were a premonition)? He left money and art to his family, but donated the rest of his belongings to the advancement of the visual arts. The Andy Warhol Foundation, opened by his brothers the same year as Warhol’s passing, “is primarily focused on supporting work of a challenging and experimental nature.” This Foundation is one of the largest organizations to give grants to new artists who wish to experiment in new media in the United States.

It was common with those cars, particularly the coupe models and if your in an accident your insurance won pay out if the car is re specced. Plus, if there high mileage I strongly reccomend you get a mechanic you trust to check out the car. Even the best petrol engines will tend to calve after 120k miles, particularly in a BMW because the youngfellas who tend to be the third owner drive the arse out of them.My advice? If your going to by any car more than 10 years old buy a diesel for reliability.

When older, Jung was drafted into the army as a doctor in Switzerland, and always encouraged his patients to read. He later married and had 5 children, but it was an open marriage, at least from his side. Jung met Freud in Vienna in 1906. They had an intense intellectual relationship which lasted for about six years, as Jung was really interested in Freud’s book, The Interpretation of Dreams. Jung was about 30 and Freud about 50 at the time of their meeting, so although Jung was influenced by Freud, he was also open to many other new ideas in the psychoanalytical world. They discussed introverts and extroverts at the last conference they attended together, in 1913.

My advice would be to wait an try to score a great deal. I looked on the internet almost everyday for 3 4 months before this car popped up. It happens a decent amount at luxury dealerships, from what I understand, where a person will come in and buy the lower end 3 series and then want to upgrade a month later.

Raiola presents the proposed contract. The bidding clubs balk at the terms. Several clubs say to Raiola that they instead offer de Ligt a top 10 center back salary with no annual increase, and by the way they increase Raiola agent fee to 25m euros. Anyone that played FM knows this strategy well.

That planted the seed of my interest and I was fascinated by them, and just learned as much as I could. Before buying my current car I studied up so I wouldn’t get stuck with an expensive BMW lemon that breaks down! So yeah just researching online, talking to our mechanic oh and I collect old magazines from the 80s and 90s so they have heaps of info in them, just reading up I guess and through experience learned with my own car. Thanks for the question Ashley and best wishes for 2011

I’m still pounding my head into the wall over it, so thank you very much Mr. Muscle. Whatever company makes Tylenol, invest in it. I’m taking it by the truckload with all this head banging. Oh yes, and drywall. Invest in that too. bfakn.club In the past Ive resolved to eat more fruit, remember peoples names, and drink less beer. But this year, I resolved to buy sexier underwear.

In regards to REx, everything will effect range: temperature, speed, number of passengers, interior cabin heat/cool, wind direction, most recent driving efficiency. I can depart for IU (55 miles one way) with a full battery charge showing 95 miles (and the REx usually slightly under this for another 85 miles) and arrive at the destination with battery at 10 miles at >56 mph) when it starts at 6% charge. To solve for this, you have to slow down. On most interstates with posted 70 mph, its not safe to be driving 55. My approach has become to assume that the estimated battery mileage will drop considerably over the trip, by 50%, and so the best plan is to finder a public charger at the turn around point. You can run the REx through its 2 gals, refuel and get another 30 miles, but again this needs to be at much less than 70 mph. When you get home, the REx will be screaming at you, hot, fans blowing.

I really didn think it felt like a RWD since I didn feel any sign of losing the rear end under power, only under braking (and thought I read something about “taking advantage of the FWD”, but that must have been the last car I drove, lol). I think I need to downshift later as well, too aggressive downshifting wont help with the rear in a RWD.Ok, straight line braking it is! Turbo lag is a problem I think, I don have a clutch pedal (yet).

GT3, which I know I mentioned a lot with little explanation, is a widely popular GT class, used in a wide plethora of huge series. They feature a wide variety of car types from different manufacturers, BoP to perform at the same pace. The class currently features cars from Mercedes, Audi, Lamborghini, Lexus, Honda, Nissan, Porsche, BMW, Ferrari, Aston Martin, McLaren and Bentley.

If your BMW incident happened in Michigan, and you had a prior incident, you probably would have got a citation. The police know that people that drive a BMW can afford to pay a parking fine. One of the reasons why you see so many pieces of crap on the road, because the police don’t bother to ticket people if they know there is no money in it.

Hubby bought an older M5 through Dubizzle. It was an incredible beast to drive but it kept breaking down. He sold it on Dubizzle, got a gently used BMW from Abu Dhabi. Drove it until the service warranty was about to expire. Weirdly, it was a model that AGMC Dubai was trying to convince Emirates Airlines to add to its fleet of Skywards cars, so every now and then hubby would exchange his car for a fancy loaner car while it was borrowed by EA. Eventually hubby and I agreed to trade in both cars so he could get a second gently used one, again from AGMC Abu Dhabi.

There is also the IMSA Weathertech Sportscar Championship, which features GT3 (think GTE but slightly slower and more), GTE (known over there as GTLM), LMP2, and a category called DPi, which features modified LMP2s with new manufacturer aerodynamics and engines. Current DPi include Cadillac, Mazda, Acura/Honda and Nissan. ELMS features LMP2, LMP3 (smaller LMP2 with a very powerful Nissan V8) and GTE, while AsLMS features LMP2, LMP3, and a mix of GT3, GT4 (an entry level category) and spec cup racers (Porsche Cup being the most popular of these). Both these series primarily compete in 4 hour long events, however starting in their upcoming season, AsLMS will contest a 6 hour race at Australia The Bend Motorsport Park. ELMS doesn race again until Barcelona in July, while AsLMS doesn begin their season until a 4h race at Shanghai in November.

2 weeks ago I figure out it just a bad earth causing the slow crank and low voltage, so I fix that and it starts and runs mint. After about 15 minutes of driving the accessory pulley that been intermittently noisy completely shits the bed and starts screeching like a banshee. I don have time to fix it so I give up until next weekend.

The Verdict: In addition to the fantastic engine, the Celica has all the practicality of a hatchback. It is also front wheel drive. Although this is less fun than an RWD sports car, your parents (if you’re still in high school) and insurance agent will probably appreciate it! Another thing to keep in mind is the legendary reliability of Toyota cars. You can count on this lasting well past 100k miles without anything more than oil, brake pads, and tires. If something does go wrong, the parts for this car are cheap.

Yesterday, when he was in the passenger seat with me driving, he said, “Mum, you turn quickly to the left and I’ll put the hand brake on.’ This didn’t happen, obviously, but is a guide to his immaturity.Even on private land (which to my knowledge is not illegal) I’m not sure I would want him driving my car right now.

About a week ago I lost my card for food stamps. Got a new one. Cleaned my car, found my old one. Sooo today I went to the grocery store. I went to pay and realized I had my old card. The guy was so rude to me when I came back. I hate how much people change from when you walk up, to when you swipe your card. When I was married it was hard to see such a high percentage of our checks being devoured by insurance and taxes. I hear people talk about the same thing with the young women, how do they do that? In NC, I really don’t think it is possible but that women you were talking about is the stereotype everyone imagens when GA is diccused.

BUT. We never see a gas station on the regular (before you get stuck on nitpicking, I mean not a gas station because the thing doesn take gas, but also primarily mean equivalent SuperCharger, as in something you HAVE to stop at in order to refill energy). Until our first roadtrip, and we own two, count them, 2 M3 LRs for a combined 12+ months (one for 8 mo, the other for an overlapped 4 mo), we had never been to a Supercharger.

You will also need to specify the actice cell phone number for use with your account. Only one active phone number per account is allowed per subscription fee. You can have more than one active phone number linked to your account but you have to pay an additional subscription fee for each additional active phone number. If your phone number changes, you can add your new phone number, deactivate the old number, then activate the new number and you will not be charged the additional subscription fee.

However, there is a firm that does such things as a matter of course, that finishes every car by hand and, during its 52 year history, has seldom produced more than 1,500 vehicles in any 12 month period. And, with allocations to any particular market never exceeding thelow hundreds, the chances of another of these cars pulling up beside yours are extremely small.

For strollers, we tried both the Baby Jogger City Select with second seat and the Baby Trend Double Snap N Go, and we registered for the Baby Jogger and bought a used Snap N Go for $20 last weekend. It folds so much flatter and is lighter, but the Baby Jogger will be our “forever” stroller.

Whether these things are valuable to people or not is not the point, the point is, if I am paying such a premium for a BMW, I want it to have a all the features. This has been the case since years and when I asked the salesman why they don have ConnectedDrive, he told me it due to the regulations with TRA in Abu Dhabi they haven approved it for BMW Abu Dhabi.

If you have read my other DIY’s you know I’m all about saving money, and 02 sensors are not cheap. For a “narrowband” oxygen sensor I have no idea what that means, so don’t ask the price ranges from $70 $200 depending what you buy and where you buy it from. Add on another $150 if you’re having the dealership change it for you. Sorry, but even $70 is too much for me, for a sensor.

It the same thing as the guys that buy a high powered 30k Ducati race bike to putt around town on. Everyone is entitled to do as they wish and if it worth it to you then awesome, I personally just find the notion silly. I bought a 2016 BMW 3 series slightly used with 1,000 miles on it.

Obviously, the Odyssey is the best choice but as a “car person” that enjoys driving, I would miss driving the BMW. So, how likely is it that the tiny third row seats in the X5 would work for car seats? Does anyone have experience or can share some insight into making it work?

Just five years ago, a good, roadworthy R90S could be had for about 5,000 but that was then. UK dealer Classic Super Bikes is now offering a superbly restored example for 12,500 andanother described as “a bit scruffy in places” for 9,995. Meanwhile, Australian auction house Shannons has hammered down a beautifully restored smoke grey example for A$15,500 (about 8,870).

I never said it isn When people mention saving on maintenance costs they don say, “has less cost of maintenance when compared to it rivals.” They say, it an EV with less parts so it has less maintenance than an internal combustion car. That just isn the case. People think that a Tesla will be cheaper to operate and maintain than ANY other car, that isn true. Is it cheaper than some? Absolutely.

And that really what it comes down to for me. And this is just my opinion. The Model 3P is a lot like an Audi RS car. It exceptionally quick and genuinely very responsive when you hustle it, but it feels very clinical. You know it the electronics getting you around that track. Great sports sedans like the Giulia, M3, and even to a lesser extent the C43, allow roads and tracks to unfurl like a ribbon before you. The car gracefully dances from one corner to the next. The Model 3P never feels like that. It takes a brute force approach. It highly effective, but a bit one dimensional.

Gas Trips The money spent at gas stations. This includes gas expenses, air freshners, filling air. Now, these expenses are hard to track and I used mint to pull the information. The money spent at gas station might have been spent on chips and gum as well, and there is no way for me to know now. And so while the gas trip number may not be exact, but it is pretty close. I always use Premium 93 grade.

1. Ultima GTR720The UltimaGTR720 isn’t just fast; it’s one of the fastest cars in the world! How does 0 100 0 mph in 9.4 seconds sound? Well, that time is a couple of SECONDS faster than a Ferrari Enzo! If that’s not good enough for you, how about it being a sub 10 second 1/4 mile drag car.
