Hm. I have a new Laguna Seca and an old GT500 sitting outside. Must find a track, let's see how they really do!

These cars aren't bad at all if you do all the required scheduled maintenance. If you do not, expect a nightmare. I've seen many of them, and talked to the techs. They tell me they can tell, quite literally at a glance, if the maintenance has been done.

Basically, if you've ever seen a professional women's rugby player stuff herself into a bar-star dress, you get the idea. (If you haven't, you're missing out, trust me.) It's a bit too much muscle for the wrappings, and will tend to tear itself apart at the seams if you don't check those seams on a very regular basis. The problem these start to run into is that the longer they're on the road, the more likely it is that they'll have an owner who just says, "Oh screw it, I can put off that 75,000 km service for another 8 months or so." And then they start to rip themselves apart.

I think we all know which one of you wears the villain costume in this relationship.

I've been looking for an arch nemesis for some time; have you managed to acquire one of those for your collection? Perhaps we could arrange a trade, if so?

I think we need to start a mythical fiction about the various postings Mr. Six has had around the world. I'm reasonably certain he wasn't there for a military posting -- he's too soft and squishy and cuddly to have been a soldier -- but he could have been a spy. Or an assassin. Or a high-priced escort. Or a low-priced escort, more likely.

In this case, I'm going to say he was there for industrial sabotage in the biotech industry.

What what fart jokes what??

Unless there was time travel involved.

HOW DOES YOUR INFERNAL "LOGIC" ACCOUNT FOR THAT ONE, TECHIE?

Yeah, that's what I thought.

I thought they just pulled it off the hood of a 1951 Oldsmobile.

Is that the same incident where the Jeff Foxworthy lookalike shot his shoe while trying to show off about firearm safety?

Pfft. Teenagers are expendable. I don't see what the big deal is.
