Being American and not actually liking either of those vehicles, I feel like the odd man out. I was raised on German and Japanese cars, and never understood the love for these unsophisticated, brutish machines people love so much. Sure... I bet they're great in a straight line. But that's about the end of it, isn't it?

And so it begins. I just recently saw a slew of advertising for a radar detector that uses your phones wireless network (through an app you install) to bookmark police locations on the GPS map that the app uses. And then, that information is uploaded and distributed to everyone else using the app and detector in the…

If she was a jalop's broad, she may just appreciate that.

I concur. What is a bastarp?

Ever had seat time in one? It's actually a pretty capable, amazing machine. That said, it is indeed the girliest Ferrari one can buy. But, y'know. Still a Ferrari.

Cool, it's FWD and Hybrid. Nothing at all deserving of a moniker similar to "S2000" which was a pure sports car.

Well, judging by what they've been coming up with lately, it's going to be completely horrible.

Explain your reasoning behind the knock on Kendo? I've practiced for several years, and I see no lack of improvement in myself or the methods used. Are you speaking of the general antiquated nature of the methods used to teach it?

No, you actually don't. And if you do exist, you're incredibly hard to find, as I've only seen two of them since they 'launched' for a short period in 2009.

I'll concede your second point, as it's valid. However, to the first point I have to ask, wouldn't adding a second, smaller car which also uses some energy (if not much) eliminate the energy savings created by having a continually running circuit for the larger bullet trains? I understand it would offset it to an…

Well think about it. Why have two reasonably fast platforms moving in parallel to one another, simply to deposit passengers. What is the real benefit of not having the train stop to take on passengers at all? The way I'm seeing it here is that they want an interesting, quasi-effective method of rapid delivery to…

Not just you.

So it's a high-speed train to board a high-speed train. Redundant engineering at it's finest. GG waste of resources.

No. Stop ruining cars.

Actually it would fall relatively slowly, watching it from a distance. Depending on where it snapped (most likely the perfect middle, considering that's where the majority of the strain would be), it would take some time for it to fall sideways through the upper atmosphere. As it got closer to the ground though, yes,…

Oh wow that looks familiar. What movie is that again?

Couldn't agree more, Subaru has wonderful transmissions while Toyota's tend to be rather notchy.

Good man. I concur that the rear-end isn't... beautiful, by any stretch. But consider what we're getting: A RWD Toyota Coupe, for the first time since 1997. I think we can take the ugly with the awesome.

Amusingly, it should be using the 5\6-speed from the WRX\STi\Impreza in general. I doubt Toyota would go to the trouble of matching one of their own transmissions to a different manufacturers engine block.

I concur. Looks like the Dev Kit for the next-gen model, but not the final model.
