Not a motorcycle biker here, so here’s a question. Road bike or MTB? I am personally a MTB rider although I do ride my MTB a fair bit on roads. To me there’s a huge difference between MTB and road bike, and even within MTB, there are many differences between XC, DH and other forms of off-road biking. So what form of…

Speculative speaking only. What if a private buyer buys an iconic track like the Nurburgring and decides that it will only be for private use, meaning it won’t be opened for track days etc? The buyer has all the right to do so(not unless it’s stated on the contract of purchase). Will that still be a good thing? So in…

Rode this baby from Ft Lauderdale to Seattle, by passing Texas, Arizona, Utah, Idaho, Oregon and then Washington. Went through snow, ice, desert sand and salt flat through out the 10 years I’ve owned it. This car had a strong heart (engine), never once did it fail on me. Sold it at the end of the trip as I bought an…

I’M IN TAIWAN AND HOW DO I NOT KNOW ABOUT THIS???? NEED TO INVESTIGATE!

Yes Hyundai we get it that you have designers capable of designing Aston-Bentley. Now try selling one with Hyundai emblem.

This design is a combination of many distinguish existing examples, from the Tesla’s front and side profile, Maserati Ghibli/Ferrari headlights and Toyota/Lexus bits. Can’t really blame the Chinese for “copying” them, at least they did a decent job getting its proportions and general lines ok. I mean, at least people…

By the proportion it is really tiny. If compared to the previous gen Elise, which is a small car with pretty much the bare minimum that a modern car should have, this one looks even smaller. Not sure how true this design is to one that is good for the road. On a second look, this looks to be 1/2 scale. The height of…

Until some idiot hits you at 40mph.

Ok maybe this isn’t the point but when the bullet proof windshield gets shot, visibility goes to zero, can’t drive out of the situation, can’t get any situational awareness(visually crippled), therefore can’t really give enough info when radioing for back up. I don’t really know if they’ve put this through a simulated…

Never had a close look at the Miata before, but my friend took his dad’s Cayman S out and I’d imagine the cargo space to be similar. I CANNOT live with that kind of space. At a bare minimum, I need to be able to fit my MTB in there, which the GT86 can.

Over here a used S2000 would cost roughly the same as a brand new GT86, and they are really hard to find, not to mention a clean one. So my choice was obvious.

As a GT86 owner I have absolutely no brand loyalty when it comes to this car in particular. Subaru/Toyota/Scion. Who cares? BRZ is sold at much higher price tag here over the GT86, but the GT86 didn’t have manual available for the first year and a half so I didn’t make the move. Once Toyota started selling manual…

Instead of a hinged cover, will a sliding cover be a better choice? Too complex?(I’d think the entire F35 program is about embracing complexity)

Very soon we when we choose which tires to buy, we will also consider how they sound on the road, cus that’s gonna be the loudest element without an internal combustion engine and exhaust. Sound design on tires? There I just created a new specialty!

About 10+ years ago a lot of Taiwan’s taxis looked like this, and the drivers were obviously very throttle happy and had phobia against braking. Then the public started to express their opinions with such exciting rides and more than half of the taxis here now are boring Toyota Wish. I think it’s time to bring the bad…

I had the luxury of learning manual on a fork lift when I was 12. My family had a warehouse and a Toyota 1.5ton capacity diesel fork lift. It was simple, 2 gears + fwd/revs, and two more levers for lifting and tilting of the forks. Since it’s diesel, the clutch had a pretty wide range of biting point, so it was easy…

Also the M12, although it was done by Fabrizio Giugiaro. Like father like son.

Wow those leather straps totally look like they are the only things keeping the beast within contained! Such a simplistic yet expressive element, although not for aesthetics, but I think is what completes the story.

And I am also a noob on this issue, but I was just thinking, what should we call a “fighter” plane that doesn’t fight? Does a new category have to be invented for such kind of planes that do everything but nothing well?

Well Boston has lots of curvy roads, not in the good way though.
