Rommel, you glorious bastard. I watched you hotlap the Nürburgring Nordschleife.

I love this idea, though your argument is slightly self defeating in the sense that no one “wants” to drive a minivan. I am a full fledged minivan apologist and even I don’t want to drive a minivan. They aren’t fun, they aren’t interesting, they aren’t really much of anything but super duper practical and smart.
Nice photography, But If I have to have a retina searing paint job, I’ll take it with a Bowtie and be faster around a track.
I’ll agree the electric future isn’t as scary as i originally thought. However, I’d much rather own and drive a slower NA motor only version of the 918. The large power numbers are fun to look at, and i’m sure they’re fun to drive but at some point it just gets ridiculous.
Agreed. I think the best way to do this would be to keep the crank motor and the electric supercharger but ditch the heavy battery pack for a supercapacitor/flywheel purely for use as a ERS/torque fill. Having a pure EV more for a supercar is extremely lame and thats the only reason you’d have the heavy battery pack..
Well, the Lexus RX sells in droves, and maybe those sales are what Caddy wants as well. So a FWD based luxury CUV/SUV doing battle with another FWD based luxury CUV/SUV?
As someone who’s replaced brake lines before, it’s a perfectly acceptable job.
lolwut? were you even alive back then? nobody (and I mean nobody) gave a shit about independent rear suspension back then. Pontiac released the 1961 Tempest with IRS, a rear-mount transaxle, a base 4-cylinder, and an optional aluminum V8. and it flopped. Why? because these were land barges and nobody cared about…
*All* of the 1970s! You didn’t get independent rear suspension on a Cadillac until the 1980 “humpback” Seville. Even the FWD Eldorado of the 1970s had a beam axle in the rear.
Yeah, no. They are/were couches on wheels. Handling was not on the minds of their customers and they definitely mastered the smooth ride as anyone who has ridden in the old DTS/Deville can tell you.
This is the car Ferruccio would’ve wanted.
Buy me the brew, then slap me. Win-win.
I eagerly await the head to head competition at the Grom Prix.
Jeep does a great job of making highly desirable concepts, never building them, then disappointing us with mediocre build quality and things like the Patriot. Bring me the FC concept and I'll be eternally indebted.
You almost had me? You never had me - you never had your scoot. You’re lucky that ridin the clutch on your two stroke sorority- mobile didn’t blow the welds on the intake! You almost had me?
Maybe a true racing simulator version?
Imagine sitting in your favorite armchair, relaxing and enjoying a high-tech motorcycle trip of the future on your subcranial-stim immersion glasses. Now imagine there is a powered eccentric wheel with a large weight mounted on the bottom of the chair, and every few minutes it suddenly, and sometimes violently, makes…
Have you played Far cry?
400hp V-Sport!
Isn’t the Aventador already supposed to do a 2.8 0-60?
