btw.. that IS-F runs in the mid to low 7s.. hence the parachutes.

 

Another angle.. driver walked away.

 

Hey boys...on Touch of Modern, they have a promotion going on some GORGEOUS vintage car prints by artist, Arthur Schening...

GORGEOUS and decent priced too...would look great anywhere including your man-cave...

Nice..

 

If any of you are looking for some AWESOME automotive artwork, check out this guy's work. I've bought a few prints from him and they are epic. Hand drawn with pencil and marker, limited runs, and he does it himself for a living.

Also, I'm not sure why this thing won't work but I picked up a 2003 Yukon XL Denali last weekend. I love it. It's like driving a private jet around.

 

in the immortal words of Beavis.......... YESSSSS!!!!!!!!

 

Whoa...his work is kick@$$.

Thanks for that!

 

GOOD GOD!!!!

Is it street legal?

 

I thought that it was... I am the great CORNHOLIO!!!! I need TP for my bunghole...

 

 

 

 

Yummy, I have a question for you. How long does it take an order from Petrolified to deliver? My order shipped on February 2nd and I still haven't received it. And my tracking information only shows it left Slovakia on February 4th.

Is this a normal time frame? I thought it would be closer to only 1 month to deliver.

 

Weird. There was a strike for delivery services down in the US recently, right? Would that have impacted the arrival...? I would fire the seller a question...because, it's about 2-3 weeks if I recall.

 

I am not sure if there is a mail strike. At least, I haven't heard of one. I have been getting mail and packages without disruption.

I emailed them to inquire about it though. Thanks, hopefully something is not wrong.

 

Good luck!

 

 

No problem. I just got a piece from him on tuesday that I need to get framed up. It's this one:




Fvcking fantastic, would definitely recommend hitting him up if you're interested. I plan to decorate the entirety of my basement with his work.

 

there are more than a few immortal words, haha

 

Turns out the tracking info was incomplete and they responded back with an apology and a link to another tracker.

It's been at the local post office since Feb 28th.

 

 

Dafuq...the post office didn't notify you?!??

 

Probably because they lost it..

 

Exciting news, but did you guys see the new 2016 Kia Optima image? Not bad.

 

^^^ those companies are doing some pretty awesome stuff. a friend just got the 2nd to top Kia forgot the name and it's quite nice.


random Chicago image from interwebs today

 

Cadenza?

 

I saw that an instantly was reminded of the 15 Camry. However, the Kia looks much better.

 

Test drove a TLX V6 P-AWS this morning. Not bad.

Likes
-V6. A Honda V6 has such a distinct sound...miss it. Screams.
-Toys. LKAS is so damn helpful. The brake hold thing is nice too.
-IDS. Each mode has a distinct dynamic to it. Sport+ is incredibly aggressive. Normal is comfortable. Not sure what all the fuss is about on the 9 speed DCT.
-Affordable. The sales guy mentioned a TLX V6 promo that's $0 down/$380 a month lease.

Dislikes
-The dual nav screen setup has a pretty unfortunate UI. Crunchy, circa 2006 looking map. Having to tap the screen four times to turn the seat heater on high is a nuisance, unless that was a user error on my behalf.
-Handling is not as good as my Fusion, though, I'd imagine the handling on the I4 TLX would be a more fair comparison.
-The rearview camera is very low resolution.

I'd get one.

 

^ - Did you notice any hesitation re: transmission when punching it?

 

^ Actually, yes, in normal and eco modes, absolutely noticed the lag. Was irritating but I just attributed it to the tranny having 9 gears. In the sport modes, the car was pretty responsive.

 

TLX is a good car but not a great car. Therefore not worth what they ask for it. I could certainly live with one but I wouldn't spend my own money to go get one.

 

TLX: It's that kind of thrill ...

Uhh, what kind? That kind?

 

Yeah, that kinda. Duh.

 

delivery at Trump Tower Chicago today -

 

Almost as bad as the ILX's "Catch it if you can" slogan. I bet most things can catch it...

 

Is that dust I'm seeing all over the Ferrari, or just very weird lighting?

 

oh it's dust. I don't know the story behind it.

 

$380 a month? Not bad. 12k miles? My buddy leased an ATS 2.0T for like $0 down/$430 a month with good credit but it's tiny and kind of has no balls.

 

10K, I believe. $380 was for the base TLX V6. Tech pack adds ~$50 a month, according to Mr. Salesman. I was just kicking tires, I'm sure you could get it for less.

 

TLX is bad news. Maybe the '16 or '17 models will iron out the kinks.
