What’s funny is that Lincoln is rumored to be bringing back suicide doors for the Conti.

If you think Tesla owners are a cult, then Porsche owners are basically The Stonecutters from The Simpsons — in that they mostly keep it to themselves, and have been around for far longer than anyone realizes.

I’ll admit it — first big grille kind of done right in a while. I’d still prefer if it was a happier demeanor. All an angry front fascia does is communicate to everyone else that life didn’t quite turn out like you hoped it would’ve.

I’m in the US and insure a 2016 Porsche Boxster Spyder for ~$1000/year (~£710) in a big city. If I chose a Cayman GT4 instead it was only another $50/year. It really depends on what you drive and what tends to happen to those vehicles in the hands of their owners (collision rate), theft rates, etc.

This. It’ll cover collision damage to normal vehicles of an average age, but once bodily injury is involved it’s an entirely different ballgame.

I, for one, look forward to the 2025 Audi “R8" CrossCabriolet with Quattro, a 14" infotainment display in the front, dual 12" displays for the 2nd row, 360-degree cameras, automatic parking, lane keep assist, a 10-speed torque converter automatic paired to a 2.9L twin-turbo V6 with a 48V hybrid system, third…

Honestly, there’s something much worse, especially if you rent:

The 3rd gen is entering is 6th model year. Sales are tailing off entirely for the generation as one would expect, but the drop between the 2nd gen’s first and last year was only 17.6% (very low!), whereas the 3rd gen’s drop-off so far has been 68%. That’s absolutely precipitous. Personally, I blame teens.

>Eh, still Cadillac is up in sales globally.

Population estimate for July 1st 2017 for Michigan was 9,962,311.

With an optional carbon fiber appearance package, including carbon fiber floor mats. The highlight feature they’ll spend four minutes showing off at the press reveal is configurable interior lighting. Then they’ll go on about how easy it is to use Spotify on the infotainment system.

Everyone on here is all like “ehrmegahd we want a RWD manual brown wagon!” Half of them drive an automatic awd black crossover.

“The Breakers”, built by a Vanderbilt in Newport, Rhode Island is probably one of the canonical examples of a “proper” mansion, though it is a 138,000 square foot ocean-side behemoth. It might even be Fancy Kristen approved.

Wasn’t talking about the SkyActiv since development is still young. However with the NC it wasn’t hard at all to push it to 220HP if you had the cash.

Should’ve been noted by the pilots as a, “complete and total barf-o-rama.”

Making more power out of Mazda’s normally aspirated powerplants hasn’t ever been hard, even keeping them naturally aspirated.

Yep. All the FreeValve development prototypes were done in Saabs.

Koenigsegg’s been developing this for many, many years with their FreeValve technology, which they’ve spun off into a sister company. They use pneumatic-hydraulic-electronic actuators (PHEA). The first production car with the tech will be the Qoros 3 hatchback, where they’re calling it, “Qamfree”.

When I lived in Boston, I lived *across the street* from a subway station. On a line that intersected all others within minutes, so getting anywhere was damn quick and simple, for a $79/mo all-you-can-eat pass.
