[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

Celery is good in potato salad. And with salt or peanut butter. Otherwise, notsomuch.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

The geek in me would say the Tesla Motors sports car.

I kinda love you.

And will send my info to your profile addy. Thanks!

I'm not a fan of driving. But I am a fan of the convenience of having a car. So I choose to live in an area where I can walk to most all the stuff I want, and just drive occasionally to some places I can't walk to (Target, the airport). And am looking forward to stuff like the light rail to the airport.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

If you could have any car, money and mechanical needs being no object, what would you drive?

All of them. I'm a car slut. I have a roving eye. Every pretty car I see, I imagine driving it. I tell my car, "It's not you. It's me."

Oh, I'd ideally have a garage but if car monogamy was demanded, I have decided to whose cylinders I could be faithful.

I had wanted a 3-series BMW for most of my life, and I finally bought a 335i earlier this year, so I'm driving one of the cars I really wanted. I have a thing for very fast sedans. There's something about a car that is an effective commuter that get to 60 MPH in less than 5 seconds and easily sprint up to 150 MPH. If I were getting it totally for fun I'd probably would have looked more closely at the convertible model of the 335i or the M3.

I would like to take a spin in one of the current M5 models. All wheel drive, 4 doors, a real trunk, and a V10 with enough power to crush your skull.

I'd also like to have an Austin Healy Mark III with the straight six. Yum!

“Not dead yet!”

Hil, I'm sorry your mom has to stay in the hospital tonight.

{{{Shir}}} Ginger is, indeed, quite wise.

If you could have any car, money and mechanical needs being no object, what would you drive?

For a new car:

Aston Martin DB9

For a classic:

1957 Chevy Bel Air convertible

or a 1957 Porsche Speedster

I would also like to own a Porsche 911 at some point in my life.

I love my 335i convertible, ND. SO. MUCH. FUN. Because of course, I got it with a manual transmission, even though the salesguy gave me a funny look when I insisted that YES, dammit, I wanted the stick. Buy a car in the south when you're a woman has to be one of those special hells.

I am more than a little ashamed of the fact that I finally got my fast BMW and I got an automatic. I caved to the fact that I spend so much time in LA traffic. I really want to have a BMW with a six speed at some point.

I will say, it does has the most responsive automatic I've ever driven.
