    steering column won't unlock

    I parked the car the other day with the steering wheel turned slightly to the right. Today I can't unlock the steering column, or turn the key. Tried the usual: jiggle the key, turn wheel from lock to lock, tilt the column, but no joy. The steering wheel only moves an inch or two back and...

    locked steering column

    I parked the car the other day with the steering wheel turned slightly to the right. Today I can't unlock the steering column, or turn the key. Tried the usual: jiggle the key, turn wheel from lock to lock, tilt the column, but no joy. Any other ideas? Battery is charged.

    How Wolves Change Rivers

    interesting idea, but wouldn't the recovery from forest fires do the same things? Coincidence?

    Lambo owner looking for "protection"

    Re: P1 Now THATs a diffuser! When I park out in the weeds and someone parks next to me, I'm not sure what their motivation is.

    The Ferrari That Would Never Happen Is Happening

    It looks like an alfa romeo 4c spin off... $180,000 entry level doesn't seem like it would draw in many new sales. If you have 180 you probably have 200 to get to the california t...

    Lincoln Continental Concept

    Not a fan of the grill, too much like Jaguar / Kia/ Hyundai. I thought the Lincoln waterfall grill was becoming better looking with each new iteration.

    Another Price Spectulation Thread - for under $200K

    Of course, right after I post this, I see McLaren announces a 650S Le Mans edition of 50 for $371K. I'd want a new GT before the McLaren at that price.. http://jalopnik.com/the-mclaren-650s-le-mans-is-a-celebration-of-racing-glo-1680606674

    Another Price Spectulation Thread - for under $200K

    I was giving some thought to what the new GT could cost At the low end, What is the competition? Lambo Huracan, McLaren 650S? The new GT will have more technology than a Lambo Huracan (dry 3100Lbs) so it seems reasonable to price it above $250K. With a McLaren 650S coming in around $270K with...

    First Production Availability

    Carbon tub cars available now: The Alfa Romeo 4c, $53,900-$69,000 BMW I3, $41,350- $46,000 BMW I8, $135.000 + So its unclear if the '16 GT will be 250K or 400K, but I think the cost could create a ceiling on the price of our 05-06's

    Passenger Mirror

    Is the paint cracked? If not, a paintless dent guy might be able to remove it for $100 before you put the mirror back on. Hard to tell without at picture.

    Noble M400

    Does it have a dry sump oiling system? With sticky tires, I'd want a track tool to have a dry sump, or I'd be concerned about oil starvation issues in long high G corners. I don't have specific M400 knowledge, but I did stay at a Holiday Inn Express last night. :)

    Collectible

    +3 never looked at the box until they were ruined by the dishwasher. I'd add not to soak them in hot water as the decals will scratch easily. NO DISHWASHER for these!

    Rotors and Caliper parts

    Are you sure they are warped? Maybe just pad or rust build up in a spot on the rotor? Go out and do a few real hard stops 70-20 mph, Drag the brakes to clean off the rust then drive around to cool. See if that works, before you drop $ on rotors.

    Rear Axle Nut Inspection Recommendation

    Are the nuts "handed", or are both sides righty tighty, lefty loosy?

    Are the rotors indexed?

    I'm guessing the 4 marks inside the hub area are from the fixture used when they painted the rotor hat area? Just a guess.
