Looks like Stark’s up to his old tricks to me.

Very excited to see how this works out. Could push the site in a very interesting direction.

At 5k I’m all over this.

Don’t you see, Raph? The cars are inside you. They always have been—you just had to learn to believe in yourself. Now you go out there and you drive those cars, and you don’t do it for me or for aunt Sal or even for little Timmy, God rest his sweet soul—you do it for yourself.

Dear Ralph Gilles,

Who taught my aunt Doris how to Kinja?

I don’t know man, in a world where Jezebel and deadspin both exist the chances may be slimmer than we’d hope.

Perspective of an automotive engineer who has worked for and supplied to lots of ze Germans at this point:

If I were you I’d be looking for something in the toyota lineup that has a more powerful transverse FWD drivetrain for this. Staying in-brand and maintaining the drivetrain architecture is going to substantially decrease the difficulty.

I, for one, am not necessarily opposed to what sounds essentially like a RWD Passat CC.

I’m fully confident my astromech is going to be well-versed in repairing classic hybrid technology by 2065, so your argument is still null :P

The e39 M5 isn't a highly-strung I-6 either...

I mean, technically, the M1 was the first M car. The e28 M5 used the M1’s engine.

“No,” the executive grinned, a gleam in his eye, “I’m not talking about another ‘born from our halo car, we swear’ pile of b-footage and hubris; I’m talking about actually having an R8 give birth to a car.”

Hey Mike, I think you meant the hood would trend towards the former of your two statements, not the latter.

The fact that we’re able to joke about the fact that we already know anyway is why I think it would be fun! So Jalopnik leans into that exact problem and forces a transitive hierarchy—so what?! Nobody else is doing it, so fucking go for it and shake the whole review structure up by distilling it to what we use all of…
