Odd request, but...
Does anyone know any good car forums that are in Germany? I'm taking a German class in college that is going to be rather rigorous, and reading will help me remember vocabulary. I figure since it's a car forum, I might better relate to the material. Thanks.

IMO you would be better reading german magazines and other sites. Forums tend to have very bad vocabulary, aka grammar, sentence structure, etc. Just watch around this forum or anothers and you'll know what I mean.
Do my english has a good form, structure, sintax, etc? I guess not. Neither the english by many other ppl being natives, now imagine ppl like me that have little knowledge

You might want to try German car magazine websites
I think Autobild is a German car mag, IIRC.
Probably www.autobild.de or similar...

You know, that's a damned fine point, I hadn't thought of it. Thanks for your advice, I'll look for some German car magazines. Your English is coherent though, it's not bad. Thanks guys.

lol... that's a good one. It has been always a good strategy to learn a foreing language by reading and translating songs
stick to the reading material given in class. Also try the mags that Transam gave you.
ask, send pm's, to some of the german-speaking guys of JW (TT, dodo, st-anger,heilswenka, etc) to give you useful links

Alright, I'll keep that in mind. I'm looking for something to relate to just to keep me liking German. It's a fun language.
