No, buy a German car because it comes with wienerschnitzel to roast over the VW's corpse while you wait for the fire dept.

Yeah thats been happening for a while now.

I JUST watched this video that Adric showed me awhile ago again... Not for the premise, but for the Ferarri at the end. It ******* OWNS..

But yeah, that sucks ***... Hes prob getting a brand new one anyway, so I wouldnt be that down about it. I wonder what could have went wrong with an exhaust install to make it catch fire though.
