Please. If you don't want to set aside petty prejudice to appreciate beauty that's fine, but don't play it on 'to each his own'.

It's not duct tape, it's speed tape. And speed tape repair is certified in many cases.

Soviet planes are amongst the most elegant in the sky, for some odd reason, not borne out by anything else made by the soviets.

I've never seen a presenter being so enthusiastic about the thing she's presenting.

I couldn't have said it better. 105's are just brilliant in every single way. Especially the saloons are just perfect little cars. They provide everything you need in a modern car, except crash protection. Just lovely little tin cans.

The Giulia was a huge sales success you dummy

BMW's New Class sedans were really the first car that let buyers have their cake and eat it too with great performance and reliability. While it arguably wasn't the first sports sedan (that'd probably be the Alfa Romeo Giulietta), it did set the template, especially in 2002tii form.

90's called to have their steering wheel back.

Alfa did the sports sedan way earlier with the Giulietta TI

In what key area does the ATS-V distinguish itself from the competition, being the M3/4, RS4/5, C63?

A real i3. Not something that should've worn the Mini badge.

And that's why I love the X6 M. The X6 was never a volume seller, it's a niche vehicle for a niche that BMW created. The X6 M segments that niche further, by providing the tall coupe buyer with entirely too much power. It's a car that exists simply because it can exist.

Among those features are the 3-litre OM617 diesel five, which has 87-horses and a reputation for longevity that rivals Aerosmith's career. Backing that up is a five-speed manual, another option currently AWOL from the contemporary G-wagon's option list.

I'll postulate that road going Ferrari's aren't about speed. They have never been the fastest things on four wheels. The track-day 'toys' always have had that crown. Ferrari's are about making you feel special. In much the same way a Rolls Royce isn't really about comfort or sophistication. They are also in the…

I can assure you a lot of compromises are made, and most of them cost-based. Very very few cars are made without a fixed budget, and even those that are, at least have time constraints and an overall idea of not bankrupting the company behind it.

winglets are fixed, and among the most complex bits of aerodynamics fitted to aircraft

winglets aren't always the best option. They are complex devices as well and probably don't work how you think they work. Sadly, this comment section is too small to explain fully.

"Boeing also says the MAX will have an 8 percent advantage in operating cost over its competitor's plane, the A320neo."
