The presumption that these photos were taken by A) a professional photographer and B) for our consumption is flawed. We don't know that either is true. In fact the photos were likely taken by a surveyor (as surveyors often take photos to give an idea of what an area is like) which means they would want to bring out

Zero's have been well known since the beginning of the Pacific WWII campaign. Just because you didn't know about them doesn't mean they aren't well known.

But how fast was this guy going? Was it a reasonable speed and he got arrested in a money-for-tickets scam that has/was going around? Will Tyranny, NY arrest me now for asking such questions? Or just declare war because I'm Canadian?

Does anybody else look at that first picture and think ...

And thus ends another episode of "Why Jalopnik Should Replace The Detroit Schoolboard".

Wait a cotton picking minute!

The only place in Quebec that's ever been nice to me is Montreal. I disagree.

From my understanding the Windsor was considered the more reliable engine.

There are several things that need to be cleared up for the sake of people who don't live in Canada.

Good luck. American laws are designed to greatly limit the production of new manufacturers. They could sell as a specialist but that's a loophole that would require the engine dropped in after purchase and shipping.

Unless the Speed 6 is capable of pumping out 450HP with an aluminum and carbon fibre chassis then it's not going to be able to compete. Although a weaker engine and some sanity to the ergonomics might help bring in extra cash as well. Modern, new two seat sport coupes are still rather rare. I can only think of the

I'd call them more like a Viper, personally.

TVR's ergonomics are beyond abysmal. In a Top Gear review they had three or four average people from the factory across the track get in, start the car, and get out. No one was able to start the car simply because they couldn't find the ignition.

The silver frame is supposed to "recreate" the old chrome window frames. It just comes off as tacky though.

Perhaps you should have noted a generation for the Sebring?

Got a link? I'd like to read about that. I do know that Daimler had a new chassis that was lighter already on the market when the Crossfire sold. I suppose I also should have pointed out the anemic engine competing against a turbo I6 and V8. And the poor quality interior.

Although I rather liked the Crossfire I think the would have been a better competitor in the market that the Crossfire was aimed for. For one, that old chassis it was built off of really held the car back from competiting. After all, the competitors were competiting with Mercedes and then they put out a car that's

Hennessey F1 V10 NA Miata from the early '90's. It's not road legal but it's over-powered.

The Toronado actually handled better than most RWD cars of it's time so I'm going to call bullshit on your torque steer opinion.

An example of cement being used without aggregate is the coating on concrete. It is often cement and water and nothing else. As for the mass, cost, and strength. It was from textbooks I used in college.
