Not so much for Steven Segal.

I hadn't seen a top view of this car, which is a shame:

This is how he sells copy, he's quite brilliant at it.

Def an interesting direct competition for sure! In daily life I'd see the coupe format being a winner for commuting, long trips... but the zero-to-sunshine ability of the MX5 winning the beautiful day/road sweeps. In auto-X it might come down to the driver.

I had an 03 WRX for 5 years, great car.

You guys need to fact check on the Mazda MX5: Hp for the automatic is 158, but the driver's version (manual) is 167hp. That makes these two only 1lb-per-hp different (BRZ's 13.65 against Mazda's 14.5lbs per hp) Torque is crucially only 11lbs/ft down from the BRZ. The weight on a 5speed Sport is 2447lbs...

It's also a problem in the midwest. Chicago has nothing of interest for serious drivers, nor does the whole state of Illinois (I don't care what you say about Peoria roads, there's nothing that entertains for more than 10 minutes down there). Same goes for large swaths of Wisconsin, a lot Michigan, Iowa...

Nobita seems hella whiny for a guy who has Jean Reno and a magic door at his disposal.

Michelin's Active Wheel.

This is one of those tempting morsels that my partner continually talks me out of writing a check for.

Wasn't expecting much after I read that announcement, but I'm mostly surprised the front clip doesn't really have an identity. It's vaguely fitting the current Subaru theme, but doesn't have much character. Of course the lights are a massively limiting factor, but surely the grill opening could've been stronger?

So what we are seeing here is that Subaru's design team can't really improve on a Toyota...

GM could start by introducing a track-oriented Corvette as a complete model, like a 911GT3/2 or Aston N24.

It's a sportscar!

A colleague of mine designed this salt-bed record holder for Jack Costella...

I'm not so sure the Stingray is phallic as it screams "70s porn star." Well a rubber bumpered one. The earlier ones scream "Astronaut" (late 60s speak for badass.) Either way, it was a car for men who liked women to know they got laid... but I'm not so sure it's phallic, really...

Ferrari used to make some ugly, phallic cars. Most egregious? The 340 Mexico Vignale.

If the software can perform this autonomously, why not apply the thinking as an interface between human input and craft in other vehicles, like carrier-based aircraft?

Considering I've seen accident-damaged 328s sell for $40k, this is a helluva steal! NP if it's truly legit (and best wishes to the owner for a speedy recovery).

Haha. Such is the burdensome responsibility of being the QOTD writer!
