A while back there was a story of a spoiled teen whose parents bought him a new BMW M5 and he subsequently went out and crashed it, killing himself and a few friends in an incredibly stupid fashion. I commented on it here. Well, now we have another case. Jalopnik reported that another offspring of wealthy parents with more money than sense has led a BMW M car to it's death.
This time, luckily for the parents and the teen, no one was killed except the car, a 2008 BMW M3. Apparently it was a gift to the 19 year old who proceeded to pick up a couple of friends and be stupid, as teens are known to do. He just felt like opening up the 420HP beast in a residential neighborhood and hit a hill where he lost control, hitting a curb and becoming airborne. The car wound up landing in a front yard and hitting a house. Brilliant move on the driver's part and his parents.
I wonder what they will replace it with? The poor boy needs something to drive. Why not get him a loaded pistol and tell him to go have fun with it outside? That may actually be safer.

Meet the Lotus Evora
Lotus debuted their latest car, the 2+2 Evora at the British Motor Show this week. The car has been the target of spy photographers for many months while under development as codename Eagle. Now we finally have pictures and stats on the new car.
The Evora will feature a 2+2 seating arrangement with very small back seats apparently not suitable for grown humans with all their limbs. But it is a 2+2 non the less. Power will be supplied by a Toyota V6 with 276HP/252TQ transferred through a 6 speed manual. In Lotus tradition, curb weight will be kept down but the car will feature many luxury options not available on their other current offerings. Even with the added weight, 0-60 times are expected to be below 5 seconds. No official performance specs have been released though.

2009 Jaguar XF-Series
New 2009 Jaguar XF-Series ,Audi A6 when I saw that this meeting in the next room (this was a merchant of Audi/jaguar/d' Aston Martin Ferrari/ECT) it made taking into consideration Audi absolutely tedious. I was just drawn with the point. I always liked the shape of the jaguars (except the type of S) but their serious was rather bad. I tried to find something with the car badly. V8 Aston Maritn looking at the truck for the somethings 50k of lower part not well here. But I found that nothing without counting that some orders and levers of pallet did not feel fragile. The didn I the 'care of T, I obtained it and do not regret any up to now. On the roads twisty it feels sensitive and carried and on balances of them the roads its peace, smoothe, and comfortable. I like it.
