OK. Let’s use some common sense here.
I understand that people who are elected first get paid under the prevailing wage rate. The thought was they had good benefits whatever etc.
And yes they sometimes had to get three haircuts he a month because image is important.
We’ve all been in volunteer roles theft cost us of money.
And we give them some leeway. But we don’t let them take over our country.
it’s that nagging thing called common sense. It’s called “common” because it’s used by the common people. That would be us.
And that’s what the deep state just does not understand.
Mercedes by me has at least 15 new vehicles with V8s. Most are the brand new 4 liter design.
If you have an SL 500 can you adopt me?
So do I
SL550.
Sure. :)
Ok but I have to work tomorrow...
OH!.....a sports car.
Now just hold on a second.
You said:
The Bugatti Chiron is THE most perfect car ever designed.
I'm pretty sure some of those Ferrari, Porsche, Audi and Saleen factory Gran Prix entrys are also no slouch as a sports car.
That's probably main reason the Bugatti even exists.
The rerun of the special Life Liberty and Levin is on now.
All about the impeachment hoax and the phone call.
Hopefully there will be a report on it by a member here.
Has there been any discussion on it?
I’ve been out of pocket.
Talking about Biden now at the bottom of the hour.
You forgot the supercar "Pagani" from Italy that offers even higher performance than the others you mentioned. When I visited a new Italian partner, he arranged a private, after hours tour of Pagani which led to my being interviewed by the "Robb Report".
Of course Ferrari designs some true, high performance autos...but doesn't come close to Bugatti Chiron in engineering, performance, styling & luxury.
btw, here's the Pagani "Huayra" Roadster...
Imagine, if you will, being beaten in a major LeMans race...by a diesel!
As I stated....no one with a modicum of common sense believes Audi is a supercar company.
To believe Audi is at the same level as Bugatti, Ferrari, Lambo, Pagani, McClaren, etc is absolutely insane lacking any logic.
btw, Audi is owned by the VW Group who had their own diesel cheating scandal.
Imagine, indeed!
Ciao!
You don't have to:
Audi R10 Diesel Wins Sebring
>>March 19, 2006 SEBRING, Fla. - The new Audi R10 TDI has immediately written motorsport history in its first outing: Dindo Capello (Italy), Tom Kristensen (Denmark) and Allan McNish (Scotland) won the 12-hour race at Sebring (USA) achieving the first ever victory of a Diesel powered sportscar. Tom Kristensen became the first driver to win America's most famous endurance race for a fourth time, achieving another record after his record seventh Le Mans victory from last year.<<

Audi R10 Diesel wins Le Mans 24 hours
>>August 2006 Audi took a historic first diesel win in the Le Mans 24 Hours, on the R10 TDI’s debut in the Sarthe classic.
Victory went to the car driven by Emanuele Pirro, Frank Biela and Marco Werner, while its sister car, driven by six-time winner Tom Kristensen, Allan McNish and Rinaldo Capello was third, three laps behind, after the car ran into a series of problems, including losing around 25 minutes when fuel injectors had to be changed in the fourth hour.
The German firm has now won all but one edition of France’s great race since 1999 – the exception being 2003, when the Bentley EXP Speed 8, which relied heavily on Audi technology, triumphed.<<
To believe Audi is at the same level as Bugatti, Ferrari, Lambo, Pagani, McClaren, etc is absolutely insane lacking any logic.
I guess not, Audi's level must have been at least three laps in front.
Ciao!
Heh heh heh
Auf wiedersehen!
Yeah, VW should never have apologized, I wanted them to say: "Ska-Rew the EPA"...but some RAT states banned the sale of their TDIs.
VW just wanted to sell cars.
Seriously? That's your reply? LOL!
Bugatti Chiron introduced in 2016 at Geneva Auto Show - THE show for ultra high-performance cars
1500 HP
Quad-Turbo
Top speed limited to 260mph
On August 2, 2019, Bugatti test driver Andy Wallace reached 490.48 km/h (304.77 mph) in a pre-production Chiron Super Sport 300+ prototype at Volkswagen's test facility in Ehra-Lessien. The speed was verified by the TÜV, Germany's Technical Inspection Association, making it the first time a production vehicle has broken the 300 mph barrier.
LOL....Germans lose again!
>> Germans lose again! <<
The Bugatti Chiron was designed by Achim Anscheidt (doesn’t sound very Italian to me) who works in Wolfsburg. (that’s in Germany, you know) A nice write-up about him can be found right here on the Porsche website:
>>Bugatti test driver Andy Wallace reached...304.77 mph in a pre-production Chiron Super Sport 300+ prototype at Volkswagen’s test facility in Ehra-Lessien.<<
Volkswagen, did you say......”Volkswagen”???
>>Seriously? That’s your reply? LOL!<<
I don’t know what you’re “LOLing” about, since it also seems that Volkswagen Group acquired the Bugatti brand in 1998.
I guess it could be said that Volkswagen puts “The Bug” in Bugatti.
(damn Germans)
What do you drive...a Fiat?
