Well it could potentially not be exciting if it's extremely nose heavy, which I suspect it will be. A 6.6L truck diesel engine has a heavy ass block. The sheer amount of torque it produces may combat some of the weight problem, but the weight distribution is gonna be difficult to optimize.
I'm guessing the power to weight ratio is unimpressive, although me pointing that out digresses from my point. Again, a sports car is what you make of it: the feeling it gives you. I think of a sports car as a car with responsive and agile handling/feedback, decent power (although it's all about the power:weight,…
A sports car isn't about what it looks like, it's how it makes you feel. So I guess if revving to a redline of 4.5k RPM to the sound of some soup cans clanging together is your idea of thrilling, then I guess to you it's a sports car. Just because the top comes down and it has a trunk the size of a cupholder doesn't…
That's not a sportscar/road car, that's a racecar. It doesn't need to adhere to production car laws. Completely irrelevant.
No that's exactly my point. The a lot of fun cars don't get good mileage, which is why we shouldn't be wasting so much fuel on the shitty ones. It makes it that much more precious. When we do run to very short supplies of fossil fuels for cars, do you want to go spend your weekends at car shows full of Mazda CXs, Audi…
Honestly, how did you make this? It's really damn impressive.
The absolutely mad(ly awesome) Trident Iceni has been around for a few years now in the United Kingdom, terrifying countrysides and giving owners pleasure with its 6.6-liter truck diesel stuffed under the hood. But that's how it's always been. Europe gets the crazy things, and the US is left out in the non-crazy cold.…
An opportunity missed. What ever happened to that lovely little mid-engined roadster concept VW touted a few years back? We need more cool stuff like that (and of course, these 4s).
Sorry I struck a bad chord with the fanboy. All SUVs do is waste what little gas is left in this world that could be used in fun cars.
What he did hint at on the horizon was the introduction of a really, really big luxury SUV, presumably called the Q9. The current Q7 is already a big old barge with seven seats, so it would be interesting to see how much bigger a big Audi Q would be. But with Mercedes building the GL, Land Rover supersizing the Range…
I'm still completely convinced that they'll pull out May 5th at 11:59:59 PM and never sell a car in the US again.
It isn't brown. It probably doesn't have a manual. I'm pretty sure it isn't a diesel. Fuck this car.
This is why suicide was invented.
It was a huge fad in the early oughts, now it's just stupid to buy one. It's like how tie dye shirts were big in the '90s, but idiots still wear them. Stop. It isn't cool any more.
Next up: the Lamborghini Rectuva
The SUV craze of the early 2000s is over people, stop fucking buying these things. Buy a wagon. Buy a bike. Buy a gun and kill yourselves. The fact that Lamborghini is making an SUV is just disgusting. If they were to build anything, ANYTHING with more than 2 doors, why not the Estoque? WHYWHYWHYYYYYYY
I like to think of myself as a man of taste. Why should I buy this over a Toyota Avalon?
I wonder if they could afford to make US spec models as well. That would be pretty exciting. Imagine a TVR crossover. RWD, manual, fiberglass, batshit.
Or is it only getting worse?
