Yes, this is getting a bit out of hand. Gunn getting shit canned was questionable at best, losing a sponsor for a 35 year old quote you didn't make is absurd. Shame on Eli Lilly.

Beautiful car, neat color. Good price for one of those. If it were a GTS I would already be down there buying it.

How about we let people do what they want to their own cars and we’ll let you do what you want to yours. Most cars can be had with black trim packages now.

Everything is fine up until it isn’t. 

I don’t think lights really have an intensity in this case. Warning lights are usually just on or off. Sometimes blinking.

Yep, and you can keep thinking that right up until you're in one. I have been. Never coast to a stop. Your brakes don't stop things behind you.

Look. This joke again.

Any modern car can get going with zero throttle input from the driver. As you load the engine, the ECU will try to keep the engine at its idle by increasing the power a little bit. Both my Mustang and 124 can get underway just fine without the right foot. It's slower, obviously, but easy enough to do. Good for parking…

Not necessarily. Ask Hammond.

The most important question: Is there an aftermarket de-uglification option for that heinous front end?

I’m sorry, when did blue stop being a color?

Who the fuck is Richard Rawlings?

Realistically, if you do the roll right it’s an easy 1g maneuver. There aren’t any serious stresses on the airframe that there would not be otherwise. The reason inverted flight is prohibited in most aircraft is because the oiling systems, and in most cases, fueling systems, cannot be inverted without losing pressure,…

If you actually listened to the ATC feed, no, you would not call him a terrorist. He was very obviously distressed and suicidal. It doesn’t matter what color his skin was. He wanted out, and he wanted out in a big way.

I did a little bit of research on the matter, and it looks like the ban was not because of the Chaparrals, but because other people tried to imitate it without the same engineering. Since that’s a fairly complex thing to build, which Chaparral had trouble with too, the wings failed and caused a lot of crashes. 

You forgot the most important part: It was the first non-M 3 series with a 6 speed manual, and it was only available on the ZHP. That kit was what an actual sport package should always be.

Softer cars are generally more compliant and predictable, but you lose grip due to the inside wheels not being able to put traction down as well in a turn. I think the topgear thing is more down to the suspension is overly firm in the sport setting on the GTI. Clarkson’s AMG Black had the same issue. Had one of the…

Please. No she doesn’t. Who wears a vest like that? It should be hung up in a closet.

Honestly, yes it is more than enough. That engine would have been ridiculous.

The car mentioned in the video above is an XR8, which uses a slightly modified Coyote engine. There is no reason it wouldn’t pass emissions with a US spec Coyote under the hood.
