First LT2 available to drop into an MX5 

Shocking. I always figured guys who bought Dodge Demons were totally zen and would only go to tracks after journaling their feelings and embracing their inner children, and then only to help others there self-actualize their potential. This comes as a great surprise.

It’s really weird living in a foreign country with a real healthcare system. Been living in Japan for awhile now.

Photoshop? That's Microsoft paint. 

Super Dave Osbourne seal of approval!!

Because a lot of them are actually built in the US?

This is easily solved by Uber or Lyft assigning their own ID to their drivers and putting it on the sticker that usually goes in their windshield. That is, if this is an actual problem and not one being made up so the police can maintain a revenue stream.

Here I am lusting after a C6 Z06 now. 

Nope, they’re all busy trying to define some convoluted subset of colours and options to enhance their Barret-Jackson listing - one of only 203 cars with Kermit Green paint, plaid leather interior and bluetooth compatible wheel nuts!

Not related, but it would have been a great marketing stunt to try to extract 5 more hp’s of that engine.

Well you just described the M5 just as it’s always been and had always been marketed for.

Am I the only one that carries a valve stem removal tool in my car?

Yeah not everyone works in construction or wants to drive around in a 2 ton baseball field. A normal sedan or SUV will suffice for most people. On the rare occasion (maybe once or twice a year) when I need a truck, I’d just rent one or borrow from a friend.

Wrong.... Apply the same tech to a small car and the fuel economy becomes far greater.    Also, small cars are dead in the states, not Europe.   We are over sized on everything because Murica!

I may be a minority, but I’m totally ok with a control dial. I hate fingerprints on my screens, and I like tactile feedback and buttons. I could also reference Mazda’s studies that found that people unconsciously move their steering wheel every time they go to touch the screens, so to prevent that, they made a control…

iDrive is good, especaially while driving. Most new ones also have touchscreens.

BL didn’t need dipsticks at all.  If it ever stopped leaking, you needed to add oil.

“Wow, amazing. NONE of the Citroen trucks lasted more than 3,000 miles and they all failed catastrophically! Congrats on the sabotage.”

And, with BMW eliminating dispsticks in favor of electronic level sensors in the late 2000s, the Germans have been able to turn around and play the same trick on many unsuspecting owners!
