Are we supposed to be against those things now?

Top Gear has never been about reviews of the latest and greatest, instead it tried to do each car ‘justice’ by showing the fun it could bring.

Nah, Series 22 was a return to form.

The trips to Australia, Canada, and the car reviews were quite great.

Especially how clean it looks when down.

Never seen an LFA in person, but see I ELRs from time to time. Maybe it’s just the same one though.

Wrong. Plaid seats are awesome, just like the houndstooth ones on the 50th Anniv. 911. And I really like that VW is keeping with something so unique.

But what if hypothetically that unrefined, old-fashioned jittery nature was part of its appeal?

It’s a great second car.

Apparently cars these days are deemed good by how little we have to drive then.

It’s gorgeous. It’s raucous. And it separates the boys from the men/women from the girls/dogs from the cats.

If a modern car could get even close to the cool of these, it would be the 4c (or maybe F-Type/Morgan).

Actually the entire opposite to me. I only ‘got’ it in person. The lines are perfect.

Have you heard the F-Type V6S?

Yes, more expensive, but it means cars like the F-Type will hopefully still be available locally when I can afford them.

Being a Canadian, I would have thought you'd have considered the value of aluminium re: rust.

Even that is a retro version of a copy of a Russian copy of an American car.

Nah, it's about ethics in game journalism videocasting.

Would either one of these end up looking like the Nissan Taxi For London? Ugh.

On the other hand he's managed to operate an overpriced resto in Montreal for more than a decade. I'll give him a scrap of credit for that.

Rush - Red Barchetta.

Way too busy, personally.

If I was going to suggest an ideal '60s American' restomod, it'd be something like what was in In Time; de-trimmed, larger but simple wheels (although potentially not the dish ones seen there), modern lighting:
