Say what you will about him; he's still got a grand prix victory under his belt.

I will never watch a motorsport where people CHEER crashes. In F1 when a crash happens, "The stewards are investigating, the wreckage is being moved and HE IS OK! He is getting out of the car and walking back towards the pits!" In redneck sports like this when a crash happens, "WOOOOOO HOOOOOO!! WOOOOOOOOO! …

Here I didn't think anyone actually needed motivation to get rid of a Nissan Cube.

Requiring a product to do through multiple distribution tiers means the government can collect revenue on every level. I used to work the beer/wine/spirits biz, I know this well.

It has nothing to do with the spec, or safety. It has to do with the US not getting to tax the transaction.

Deuce and a Half. Runs on basically any explosive liquid, you can convert it into a camper or use it to tow basically anything.

Maybe people realized that 13 fatalities in a decade makes people more likely to be eaten by a shark thankilled by a GM ignition switch.

What difference does it make if the country is poor? A Roller isn't a mass market vehicle. They sell to rich people, and there are rich people in every country. In places like this, it'll probably be government officials, but hey, a sale is a sale.

ZOMG LETS BAN KNIVES!

I'd still like a middle of the range Atom. You've got the Honda powered models which aren't cheap but are attainable, then you've got the V8 model that costs as much as any exotic super car. Isn't there quite a gap in there begging to be filled?

She's too damn old to be starting a new sport. She's 32. The only drivers on the grid older than her would be Button, Raikkonen, and Massa, the former two of which are world champions and the latter of which was a provisional champion for a lap.

That's more than slightly ironic, given that a Corvette gets better fuel economy than a 911.

So the 458 will have a 3.8 liter turbo motor... exactly what is the significance to the car's name, again?

Fair point. Sales tax is a state issue, not a federal one. The MSRP is before state sales tax, which is different depending where you are.

Is Porsche in the economy car business now? Who gives a flip what kind of gas mileage a 60 thousand dollar car is returning? Hell, Corvettes were doing 30 mpg back in the late 90s, now when Porsche does it it all of a sudden matters? Give me a break.

Hoonmobile Heaven, I definitely am stealing that term from you.

You're touching the throttle pedal and gear lever, and that's where American pony cars put the focus. The performance.

Modern feminism. Can't possibly satisfy you people. If they did nothing, you'd bitch that they did nothing. They do something, and guess what? You bitch that they did something. Just admit that you will never be satisfied and we can move from there.

And it would get massacred by a 450 horsepower Corvette that cost the same money.

Why would this be preferable over an unmolested GTS?
