    Joseph Gordon-Levitt/TCL's relevance

    01-01-2013 11:51 AM #1
    Joseph Gordon-Levitt drove an E30 in 500 Days of Summer and an NA Miata in Looper. If that doesn't make you guys feel relevant, I don't know what will. Make note, Hollywood is watching you guys.

    Also, do you guys remember that Jetta commercial where they remark on the reassuring *thunk* when you close the door? Lol.

    Too topical for TCL to be spambot. I'm fascinated.

    I pulled this gas tank from an old Chevy. I wanted to blow it up, so I did. What I didn't think about was all the little bits of metal that were going to fly out in every direction. I almost killed myself. I woke up in this hospital and this doctor was like, "Son..." and I said "Don't call me son, you ****ing ****."

    Do we recommend the batmobile to people shopping for family sedans here?

    If I ever hear batman and robin arguing over whether the batmobile is a sedan or a coupe, then I'll believe the TCL link.

    Wasn't that actually Seth Rogans character's Jeep? Although, he was seen driving it for a scene or two.
