A 10 year old Aston Martin Vantage. Looks better than the Maserati and you won’t be perceived as a douche.

Can be found all day under 50k, coupes, convertibles you name it. 

Obviously it was a mistake, but I really hope that guy has a photograph of the hight he flew. Say what you want, but for a brief moment that man did something so awesome, so bold, so American, he should be proud.

Wrong car. Wrong terrain. Wrong wrong wrong.

Much better than the other posts completely blaming the newbie.

These did not have AWD.

I would love this. I’d pay good money to go to a show with clean builds with period correct parts, it would be a massive nostalgia trip.

If I won the lottery you best bet that I would have an exact replica of Brian’s green GSX.....

I will readily admit that this movie is the reason I am into cars like I am today. I was 14 when the movie came out and saw it something like 11 times during its original run in theaters. Up until the movie came out I was interested, mildly, in muscle cars and lifted pickups. This movie introduced me to turbocharging,…

You have bad opinons.  

Ted Levine (you may know him as Detective Stottlemeyer from Monk) was 44 years old when he played Brian’s handler in The Fast and the Furious. Today, Vin Diesel is 51. This makes me feel really old.

Focus STs have shit cooling and major brake overheating issues.

Tesla does in fact have a conventional liquid coolant system, I’ve worked on it. They also have a refrigerant system to run the cars air conditioning. Tesla employs radiators, electric fans, coolant pumps and heat exchangers to manage their cooling system. All of the devices in the Tesla including the battery are…

But that’s part of the problem, this was NOT a stock car it was supposedly a race spec car.  Tesla knows full well about the issues when the batteries get to hot, this SHOULD have been something that was taken into account when the car was modified into a race spec machine.

Fair point that even performance-orientated street cars do overheat in track conditions (C7 Z06 comes to mind), however this car was a purpose-built Tesla S track car and thus should have been engineered around the type of use that is nominal for track conditions. They indicated they found issues that instigated the…

Right now Porsche owners everywhere are giggling. 

Agreed. Most cars cannot go from the dealer lot to the racetrack and run full boar at race distances. But, it is kind of late in the game for them to reengineer the car. This should have been the first thing they tackled.

I want to say that any self respecting jalop would fly out and drive the car back.... But since he brought it to Porsche of Manhattan, I think he has more money than time, so I don’t really feel bad.
