Anyone watch Top Gear on Monday night? Jeremy turned a segment about the RC-F into one about the LF-A. It has to sting Lexus that he did not hand the car to the stig to post a timed lap.

As nice as the RC-F looks everyone that drives it is complaining about the weight. Makes a great boulevard cruiser though.

We might get our 1st day above freezing since January 29th today.

The news said it might be a good idea to clear any drains to prevent flooding. How the am I supposed to do that when they're under three feet of snow?
It's all ice where I am. The snow banks have hardened
I'm thinking we're going to get a slow piecemeal melt of the snow pack - ie a few 30s days at a time with freezing nights etc.

Hopefully this will minimize problems from ice dams drains etc.

An A-M with a lift. Do. Not. Want.

Why does every manufacturer think they need to be in every single segment nowadays?

#3 is historically relevant.

I wouldn't mind #5 or #8.

I hope it comes with a sexy Italian exhaust note. I'll take a hot-rodded Abarth version please.
