I adore German cars. To me, they are the finest in the world. Sure, there are many car companies that make wonderful cars, but there’s just something special about German cars that draws me to them. Maybe it’s the attention to detail, or the over-engineering, or just the sheer audacity they have at times.

So this one’s for the German cars. the new and the old. the fast and the slow. The perfectly working or... well a German car can only be perfect, can’t it?

Technically the Golf gets Rising Blue. And it’s almost as good looking, just not quite ;)

Yeah, even as a die hard “VWs ARE THE WORST CARS MADE AND THE WHOLE COMPANY SUCKS MAJOR BALLS BESIDES LAMBORGHINI” person, the TDis really don’t pollute that much. It was just a shitty cheat.

Well, I think it was a non-TT, since it didn’t have a wing. Are there any other ways of telling between the two?

It’s a 530, so it has the unusually small 3.0l (2997cc) V8.

Surprisingly enough, my BMW only has the SRS light dimly lit (the procedure to reset it after disconnecting the airbag is annoying, so we just leave it) and my Porsche doesn’t *have* a CEL. It just has a bunch of gauges to watch.

I’ve always like the more feminine (in a good way) look to those 5 series. It gives it a very friendly look. Almost all cars look like they want to murder you and grind up your bones nowadays.

Yeah, the only problem was they lying. Even while cheating, it was still polluting about as much as a gas car, just with different gases.

I think it's hilarious how people lost their goddamn minds when the E60 debuted, and now it's downright conservative-looking.
