Ford needs to be careful in China. The Chinese are not Americans, they do not go into massive debt to buy cars to pose in. All the growth numbers in China are being interpreted as infinite, but there will be a plateau at some point. Again and again, market "experts" are just guys who extrapolate graphs.

We must be living in a different Toronto. Canadians are great at denial and putting off the inevitable, but the average debt load in Toronto area is the highest in the world, and the highest ever in history. The region is hemorrhaging manufacturing jobs (we don't even make hockey sticks), and the real estate market…

Rotarys are awful sounding. Drivers who raced the Mazda Lemans cars had neurological issues from the vibration frequency, and I'm glad those engines are gone from racing.

The reason why this car is so pretty is that this was designed just before major regulations can into effect world wide on headlights, bumpers, safety, etc. The design had little/no influence from aerodynamics either.

The Mangusta is a seriously beautiful car, and you can still get one for under $100K, even though less than 100 exist in the US.

What's the point of top speed numbers? I thought this website was about auto enthusiasts.

It's still typical to see people talk about car numbers like this. Of all the parameters that define a good car, top speed is never one of them.

My car has 1233 hp has a top speed of 192mph.* I win.

Nice weather.

People go to watch other people spend countless dollars on pointless endeavours.

Innovation? Car #64 is sponsored by Oreo Pizza Lite-if that isn't innovative, I don't know what is.

17mpg, who cares, this is America, we have the right to burn all the gas. I'm holding out for the 9 liter engine.

No it isn't. Diesel does cost more per gallon, but it is cheaper to run with because of the efficiency of Diesel cars, and Americans cannot do math in their heads. The reason why Diesel costs more is because...oh, no reason, it just does.

These look grate, can't tell the difference.

Stupid fact: Snow Tires are not mandatory in many Canadian provinces, including Alberta, which has the worst winters. They don't like big government on their backs..unless they are running up $200,000 hospital bills from being idiots on the highways.

Whatever. He wins, and he's always faster than his team mate, always.

Another victory for GM areo-dynamucs.

I'm not getting on any plane named after a Yak.

Mike, I find this bullshit completely avoidable.

Let's not blame bad weather. Many northern climes have bad weather on roads. Alcohol and drunk driving  is a major problem in Russia.
