[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The gun analogy really IS perfect. A kid with a BMW has basically been given the automotive equivalent of an AR15. Just as there are many types of guns, with some of them being less-equipped for spree-killers, whereas AR15 type guns are more-equipped for mass-shooters. So it is also with cars. A BMW is much more equipped to be driven irresponsiblly than a minivan or economy car. I’d go so far as to say there’s no justification for ANYONE to own a high performance car such as these, just as there’s no justification for anyone to own an AR15 rather than a standard hunting type rifle that only shoots one bullet. Put simply, just as hunters don’t need AR15 guns, drivers don’t need the equivalent of race cars. [/quote]

No it’s not.  A newer bmw will have better safety features. [/quote]

Does it have a speed governor?  [/quote]
No, you moron, it does not.
Can you name me a car that does?[/quote]

You can set a governor on BMWs. The driver can unset them though. I don’t know that there’s a way to lock it. [/quote]
You mean cruise control?[/quote]

It’s called speed limit assist. Not quite sure how it works but was making me crazy in a rental recently. [/quote]

That tells you something about your driving habits, no?[/quote]

Well it was set to 30 and I was on the highway so it was dangerous for everyone. [/quote]
