What does /o/ think of this smug bastard? Anyone rented from him?
I like his videos
He seems like a pretty cool guy from what i've gathered over the years with his super speeders series
I actually posted the ebay auction here when he listed the red saleen for sale a while back
>>14053974
He seems cool, but I wouldn't be surprised if he did shitloads of coke.
According to his hair and eye color, He seems like a total bro.

Maybe I'm just not thinking logically but you can probably understand my concern.
Unconventional ways you've taught yourself thread?
Everything I know about driving I learned from this fucking game, San Andreas.
Don't even break into corners anymore
Do you strafe cops with a jetpack and twin SMGs?

how is this not the best choice for a poorfag such as myself? as far as i know the only reliability issue with beamers has been with the electronics, but 3 series avoided that hell by being mostly analog and non-vanos,...

Yawn, try harder next time. Obvious bait.

Post here what you think are the coolest police cars around the world. They don't have to be the fastest or the most powerful, just the ones that you like mostly
>>14050101
The brera (especially the spider) is the most under-rated car of the last decade. I'd be way way more excited if Alfa had returned to North America with that.
>>14050135
Let's hope that the future 6C and the future spider will be as good aesthetically

Wife told me since it was my truck, I could go out and get any car I could afford.
I'm thinking I might liquidate some of my stock and go hunt down a Mk. 4 Twin Turbo Supra.
