I know it's good for performance, but the looks are really suffering with the rear wheels pushed so far back.

Except he said "car" not "cars." So if he was, consider this the pointing and laughing at his grammatical failure.

Let's recap:

Me: "Scirocco wins! Flawless Victory."

Kevin: "I know it's good for performance, but the looks are really suffering with the rear wheels pushed so far back."

Me: "Nope. Car looks hot."

So, if you're not referring to the post directly above yours, you should use the quote button before making up crap about "grammatical failure".

Now that is one MotherF'n good looking car. But I'm a little partial to ALFAs.

Yeah, remember what I was saying the other day about not liking what the alfa grill has become... well... scratch that.
