I think they figured if there was something mundane to complain about, owners wouldn't complain about more important things.
is it still those POS push to slide out cup holders?

i dont get why they changed to those, ive ridden in a friends 03 M3 and 04 330CI, and the cup holders were in the center console area like the TL/TSX.

Try driving an MT car with a Big Gulp in the centre console cupholder, and you'll see why those dashboard flipout thingies work. I think they're better than that stupid clip-on cupholder that looks more out of place than you at a gay bar.

How can you be sure Mizouse looks out of place at a gay bar?

My dad had an 04 M3 a couple years back and we all hated those regular cup holders that were in that thing. They had these plastic clips that were supposed to hold on to the drinks, etc but they held TOO tight and you had to wiggle your drink out every time.

I dunno why it's so hard to make cup holders that don't suck.

Yummy.... Diablo Roadster

Mizouse.... just get one of those. Girls will randomly jump in your car, take off their pants and go to town on your genitals if you were rolling around in a Diablo Roadster

Is that a Diablo? or Jota? Probably Diablo since 2 peeps here already said Diablo. I could goolge it but I didnt. And I think Jotas only came in purple. Or at least my diecast one is purple.

Thats not the Jota edition. Just a Diablo Roadster. The Jota was a coupe and looks more like the SV, and its pretty rare.

It's a terrible photo, I know.

Audi RS4 Cabriolet. 2008-only model year and supposed to be pretty rare in the US. This guy had a big, quad piped exhaust & probably running just a free-flowing system because it was loud. Sounded like a Gallardo when he got on it a few blocks down the road.

There is a woman who lives nearby who drives a black RS4 Cabriolet, even with the top down the windows are dark enough that you can't see through them though.

Really? I heard he was driving down the road and the F150 just bolted out of that gas station. Which doesn't that much sense.

Im no accident investigator, but it looks like the F150 started to cross the road and the 458 tried to swerve to the left. I would think the blame would be on the F150. I didnt read any stories about it other then ZOMG! FERRARI CRASHED!!!!, so I dont know the details.
