I really love the clean lines. Move those front wheels ahead about 3 inches though, or else shorten the nose. Too much overhang!   I'd buy one. ... View more

Every Tesla front end reminds me of Neo in 'The Matrix' when Smith skins his mouth closed. I can't shake it. They need to figure out a grille.   Despite that, I thought the Model Y was kind of cute in the first picture. Then I read that those are 21 inch wheels, and I realized that this thing is just another one of the burgeoning bevy of behemoths polluting our roads of late. No thank you, no thank you, no thank you. ... View more

Re the dash writing: who wrote it, and when? If it was Rene Dreyfus in 1937 would that make it okay?   I'm appalled by the negative comments. Don't read it if you don't like it, or at the very least have the decency to keep your negativity out of the comments section.   I look at these cars and I see history and art. They are all spectacular examples of human endeavor and ingenuity. If I have any complaint it is that I wish their owners would do as much as they can to make them available to the greater public. The guy who locked up the Atalante for 50 years -- not even driving it! -- bugs me. Hopefully its new home will have windows. ... View more

I was coming home from work in my '05 STi one evening when I came up behind one of these; I honestly have no idea which flavor. But I saw the driver's eyes in the rearview and the next thing I know he's planted his right foot, so I'm going to go with it having been a 400. We're about 1/4 mile from a 2-turn sequence that is a favorite of mine, and sure enough the Lexus took an enthusiastic line. I followed from a respectful distance, smiling. Ever since then I have wanted one of these cars. ... View more

Agree 100% on the "I could care less what you think about me driving with the top down in <insert inappropriate month here>." I have an E93 328, the first 3 series with the origami metal roof. It has AWESOME seat heaters, and I sourced a wind blocker for the back seat, so it is downright cozy even in winter. I take it out whenever I can and get my vitamin D fix.    Oh and that metal roof turns the car into a very comfy coupe on those too-hot summer days as well. 😉 ... View more

What cleans the threads on the thread chaser?   You might want to spin a nut or die on that bolt before hacking away. That way you can use it to clean up the threads as it comes back off. I also taper the first couple of threads to ensure a smooth start.  ... View more

I use a piece of bicycle tire inner tube to de-wobble my wobbly extensions. Works great, doesn't leave goo behind, lasts a very long time -- 20 years so far. ... View more
