Yeah, those third row seats always scare me. I checked into the crash test safety on them when I was looking and could find no useful data. Even the big luxury brands have seat backs that I feel are far too close to the rear tailgate, behind the rear wheels. In the end it felt too much like a Sofie's Choice moment for…

Sorry, but this thing looks like it should be hauling bread. No way I'm selling the Range Rovers for this. I just don't see this being the darling of the school run in my hood anytime soon.

The functionality might be off the charts, but the silhouette is dreadful.

Not really a new idea is it??John Lennon did the same thing

They don't take it to the track because they all know that requires skills they just do not have.

We are lucky enough to has Mosport as our local track. Plenty of interesting corners that I doubt would be designed today. The blind left hander of turn two (off camber, double apex) is a prime example. Every time I'm on it, I can feel the gravity of the place. Not a track to take lightly, but it does remind you that…

Are you asking if the guy driving the Donk has bad judgement?

I don't know, it makes perfect sense to destroy artifacts that have lasted at least 2000 years so we can have fun for a few weeks. Is that not obvious?

Thanks for asking.

Such a sad story on every level. My father was hit and run last year and was in a medically induced coma for a few days and THAT was terrible. I can only imagine what his family is going through.

I love all the planning that went into this:

I get what you are saying. Judging cars based on spec's and times makes for great armchair driving. But the reality is, for a street car at least, it is not a very good judge, nor is it in anyway the most revealing thing about what a car is like to drive and to own.

The Shelby Cobra was a terrible car by many, many…

Less formulaic cars is what I would like to see. Fast and Faster are less of a difference than it used to be. I honestly do not feel like I have to buy one of these, even though they are good.

The R8 was a breath of fresh air. These are much less so. Beautiful, but conservative styling.

I have owned 2 Audi TT'S's, 3 Audi TTRS's, an A4, an S4 and an R8V10. So I do like Audi, but I'm getting a little bored. Everything is beautifully tailored. Everything is exactly as it should be.

There is an enormous amount of beautiful and appropriate. there seems to be a lack of surprise, of new, of lust.

There is no…

Why not have the virtual gamer take the real car for a spin and see if the skills are transferable. Have the real driver try and drive without the aid of G force, and seat of the pants info.

"What time is it?"
Time to go to jail.

Improved in what way?
Outright performance?
The joy of owning and driving?
Driver engagement?
Driver enjoyment?
Technology?

Most new cars are far superior in every performance measure, except beauty and fun. A few are, most are not.

Anyone know what's happening to the Tesla's in weather like this? Are they holding a charge? If so what happens to the range?

I guess I'm in the minority here, but it seems reasonable to me. Two hands on the wheel makes most sense, one hand at least, no hands, that's just asking for trouble if something happens (cyclist, kid peeing at the side of the road, animal etc). He could very easily cause an accident, that could be avoided with two…

Please kill that BMW abomination too. ITs like their version of the Aztek. Who wants a 5 series with a high trunk. Ultimate driving machine, to Costco.

Nope. I have owned several exotics, all 500 plus horsepower v8's, v 10's, v12's. Guess what a fast car with half as many cylinders is way more fun on a track than driving like an ass on the street. At the track you get tires up to temps (very hard to do on the street). You check those temps, you adjust the pressures,…
