I thought the light rail thing was a sticking point in the presidents state of the union? 'eh oh well guess we'll leave those fast trains to the Chinese and Japanese.
I won't miss the Car Czar though. We propped the auto companies up and if they paid us all back then (supposedly) so oversight shouldnt be needed.

How on Earth could GM sign off on the sale to Spyker if just slightly over a year in of ownership they are already tanking? Part of the sale did include a stake in the company for GM after all if I remember correctly?

For Saabs and Spykers part I hope they reach out to those who wished to purchase the company before and see if they wish to invest. And yes I'm referring to another Sweedish Supercar maker that was about to sign papers but GM messed it up and he walked.

Saab to me is the Kia of the luxury car market. They are on the bottom end of peoples choice's. But as we are seeing now with Kia a few years and a few good marketing choice's and they are now up there with the big boys and not looked at as a joke when mentioned.

When Harry met Sally is for movie goers... car enthusiast have BMW M3 GTS meets Vikki.

..and to her also apparently!

Only if the part causing the fire is made in China. haha

Now you just need to find 100,000 couches to look in and you'll be there :D

These "Only at X-store" specials tend to lean more torward's collectors more so than lil timmy who just watched the movie. Why they do it who knows.. maybe extra molds they had that where still usable or enough demand was there for them to say "lets make some money!".

Though I would love it if a quick paper clipping showing Captain Britain would be sooooo badass!

So Ford.. explain to me again why we don't have this in the states once more?
I hate saying it but I'll say it....... if Ford doesnt wish to bring it over as a Ford, can they bring it over as a Lincoln? Have this 335 GT be the top tier version and rename is something fancy sounding.. oh and no god damn MK crap either. Lincoln should buck the trend and have a LEGIT name for their cars.. but anyways yeah bring it over as a Lincoln if you have to Ford. Would make your dealers happy right? They'd have a original car that is not a rebadged Ford (in the states).

Very true... I'm starting to have Bat-nipple flashbacks just as they where banished from my mind forever!! Nolan you best know what your doing.

@Paul E.
I reread the article and I stand by my stance. Cars are safer hence less fatalities. I didnt feel like it at the time to point out other problems such as..
-Most drivers won't willingly admit to texting or being on the phone when pressed as to how a accident happened. Most who are caught are seen by witness's or the driver they hit.
-Distracted driving has been the bane of many a motorist for years if not decades. Its not new but thankfully we have Ray "The Godfather" La'Hood who seems to take his job seriously.
-Sadly with all Automakers hyping their cars as safe with crash test stars and other do-dads (gods I just said do-dads lol) it lulls them all into feeling "safe". Lane Depature, Parking assist, this odd sleep thingy I heard about it all contributes to drivers becoming lazy and hence even more likely to become distracted.
-A car is a mode of transportation regardless of how many miles or hours you spend in it within a week its just a car. Its not a mobile office.
-Sadly for some reason or another GPS makers havent made a moving lock out system. Should they? 'eh I think so.. would negate those accidents that occur due to them.
-Should all forms of electronics be banned within cars. Yes and no. Yes its a slippery slope but it goes back to what I said about a car being a mode of transportation and not a mobile office.

Again in the long run the stat's of fatalies or carnage boils down to the cars being safer. Its why we don't have cars flipped over on their roofs with drivers clenching onto their cell phones and whatnot. That and well people lie. Not everyone is honest when telling police officers and insurance as to what was going on before the accident happened.
