The alternative to turbocharging is electrification, like in a LaFerrari. Pair battery/electric down low for torque with a high-rpm screamer for horsepower and there could be a divergence away from turbos before all engines go turbo.

The answer truly is Miata.

Anyone else seeing more Lancia 037 in this? I know that's a 'Cuda grille, but the proportions scream LANCIA more than anything to me.

Slow news day?

Ferrari making non-Ferrari stuff would make more sense only if there's a heritage behind the choice. Ferraris main heritage outside of racing and sports cars is exclusivity and rarity.

Exactly! Which is why several of my neighbors have them and use them daily.

LOL so true. You can't sell a purist philosophy these days.

Ze sigh.

The Mazda MX5 ND disagrees.

Couldn't they downsize the engines and make the car lighter?

It is, but it was def an import being right hand drive. Im guessing they mustve done a VIN swap or something.

Having had the misfortune of driving in and around Paris on several occasions, I can see why they need to do something radical.

You forgot Mexico.

What is Caddy really offering that makes you want nothing else but a Cadillac? It's well made, but so's the competition.

Kia makes a luxury car, BMW makes a Rondo. Is this a sign of the singularity Kurzweil was talking about?

With boats there were yachts, super yachts, megayachts and now the hyper yachts...

I've owned 14 cars, only one is a 6 cylinder, and even that is sub 3 liters. I've owned turbo, N/A and diesel 4s otherwise. Rear, Front, and All-wheel drive. Am I un-American?

THIS FILM HAUNTS MY DREAMS TO THIS DAY!

Does this plane, the YF-12 or the SR-71 ever get old? I mean if you were to guess what aircraft of the last 2 centuries are going to be recorded in history 1-2000 years from now the short list would include one of these, the Wright Flyer, Concorde and maybe the Jumbo jet.

Except diesels don't have ignition coils... compression engines and all that...
