Driving aids are usually frowned on by driving enthusiasts. I can see were there thrill in having the car drive itself comes from but it's not for me.

neither. it's a generic/comical reference as a comparison.

it was not calling you a a Nazi/Hitler specifically.



manual guys......slow at everything

I see you are from Turkey so I'll help you. Nothing that comes out of Presto's mouth is serious. All of it is to lead you into whatever end joke he has in mind. Sometimes, meaning almost always, they are distasteful but you'll get used to it.

He's a hero is his own mind

Sorry, not updated location. I was in turkey the year before last year; for a year. That's why I sold my Z, I didn't want to take it there. Now I've been in Germany for the last year with 2 more.
