    Does that mean it's easier to attract chicks in a GTI?

    That's because Camry has been the best selling car in the US for 13 of the last 14 years. I would guess that Falcodores get the most tickets here in OZ...

    You definitely have to watch that right foot. Before you know it you are doing 60.. The first and second gear ratios are the ones that can get you pinged!!

    Depends how heavy your right foot is I guess, I get my speeding urges out of the way when I hit the track so every Friday/Saturday when I drive the bosses tuned C63 AMG I have no problems with staying under the speed limit

    Hmmm. 7 out of 10 of those cars are driven mostly by women. Damned stilettos must be heavy.
    If you dig a hole and it is in the wrong place, digging it deeper isn't going to help.
