you beat the driver, not the car. The G35s and G37s do mid 5 seconds when driven by an experienced driver. (For the auto) The DSG GTI does low 6 seconds. Now it could have been the guy was either inexperienced, or driving an older model slushie g35 uhhh... 5 or 6 seconds on the quarter mile? no. 5 ...

You could have said 5th gear sucks and be talking about the TV show, and be correct.

5th gear is a crappy top gear knockoff whose sole redeeming feature is a hot female presenter.

If you're willing to pay it, then its not overpriced, if you're not willing to pay it, then its overpriced, and if you're willing to pay way more than it costs, well, its either underpriced, or you're just a dumbass. So what is and what isn't over/underpriced to one person...

that's why I'm taking 6 AP classes this year. Regardless of whether or not I get a 4 or 5 and get college credit, it looks good, gets me ready for college, and so I know that I'll have a much better chance of succeeding in college, hopefully in a top notch one. I'm also planning on being a doctor, ...

Three things: 1) But none of this means that BMW/Apple isnt overpriced, it just means people pay for looks. Why do you think theres such a huge market for plastic surgery? Do people need bigger boobs? No. They just think they look better. 2) Overpaid also exists. If, for example, every factory work...

I decided to go up to the rotary and get off on the same road I came from and park in the 7 eleven half a blo...

If you know anything about US business, especially ailing US business, they focus ONLY on the results for the quarter. That's how my school is. While schools in Japan are in session 6 days a week, trying to put out the best students on earth, my school district is too busy worried about the results...

If I decide to buy an iPhone for $399, then I've obiously evaluated whats out there and choses the Apple offering. By buying the product, I'm implicitly agreeing tha...
