I'm sorry I put a dent in your car...

May 25th 2008 5:07PM on Autoblog

I find it hilarious that all the people here assume that the letter writer actually dented and scratched the Bimmer... which he/she didn't.

I think a better thing to do would be to bring a valve stem core puller (I think that's what it's called...) with you in your glovebox. That way, all you do is pull that out, pull out a couple of valve stem cores, and they're stuck with two flat tires. It may not be legal, but sometimes people can be real dicks about parking.

Buell to offer Ulysses Police bike

Look familiar much? http://thekneeslider.com/archives/2008/05/22/buell-ulysses-police-xb12xp/

This is the second article that I have seen on Autoblog that seemed to have been pulled from The Kneeslider without a "via" attached at the end. (The other was the one about the Honda Cub) Tsk tsk.

Er. I'm not sure if that would be "win" or "lose..."

No way this thing would have won. The E-Type is WAY more phallic than this thing.

Formula One gets Sirius

When I first saw the title of this entry, I thought "Holy crap, the F1 drivers are going to listen to the radio while they drive???"

McQueen's LeMans Porsche may fetch $2m at Bonhams

Good point, Kevin. I guess eventually it IS the air that cools all automotive motors! :P

Yeah, really. I know that my air-cooled Beetle has an "oil cooler" that looks like a radiator, but it's still called an air-cooled motor.

How does an oil cooled motor differ?

Thunderbird Ranch out to pasture?

What the eff, Vintage? What are you on?

VW Golf Cabrio returning in 2010, but Karmann won't build it

May 23rd 2008 2:41PM on Autoblog

I really really miss my 93 Cabriolet. Really. The only problem I had with it was a broken clutch cable.

It's too bad Karmann won't be getting "the contract" for the Cabby Rabbit again. They really knew their stuff.

Rock Solid Idea: Faux-marble Audi S5 spotted in Russia

I'm guessing that their Titan is built for offroading? Around here there is a 60's Toyota Land Cruiser with the same treatment ALL OVER.

Let the hive mind of Engadget get that for you.

"I'm pretty much a complete noob when it comes to camera stuff. My wife loves to take pictures, though. So much so that she literally wore out her first point and shoot camera, and the Kodak Z712 I bought for her less than two years ago is starting to act up as well. To compound the matter, we are expecting our first born sometime next year. I fear the Kodak just isn't going to cut it any longer. What would be the best starter DSLR to get? She hates missing photo opportunities due to camera 'lag' so speed would definitely be at the top of the list. Photo quality and features would be next. Price should be no more than $800. I'm not interested in video capabilities."
