LMAO! She should have mentioned the bulging fenders make for easier ironing LOL

Other than the sound capture (where they documented well both induction and exhaust notes), pretty worthless review...

Whelp, I couldn't do it. I tried twice. There was no way I could make it to the end of the video.

I particularly enjoyed the part where she chose not to get "all technical" about the differences between the 135i and the 1M: it was clear by her authoritative delivery and ease around that car that she could have dropped the hammer, getting, like, all technical, or whateverrrrrr. I'm glad she didn't: I would have been like totally confused.

...as a racer, you shouldn't drive like you have Miss Daisy in the back seat. Everytime the car even went somewhat fast, she wasn't driving it.

"So, first impressions are kind of a big deal, so when I first pulled out of Roadfly HQ, I wanted to see what it would give me..."

"It didn't take much throttle to break the rear end loose. I liked it."

"I like for a car to do exactly what I want it to do, exactly when I tell it to do it."

"And it's very responsive, and that's great. And that's how I like my men, too."

Sounds like she is really looking for a date..

There are no comparisons. I accidentally watched a video of hers on a more pedestrian car and they were basically the same. "It felt good", great that really helps me.

That and some humor/excitement would go far.

I think if she wore a bikini it would lend credibility to the "feels good under my butt" comment.

Even Danica knows you have to show a little to pay the bills.
