I’ve a short list.
- 3 pedals
- Minimal electronic nannies
- A/C
- Satellite radio

I did a Lamborghini tour last month and there were a few of these being driven around. I didn’t notice them being particularly loud or large. The size seems to be about the same as an X6, and they of course were not getting on them hard. The inside looks like a typical Aventador with switches and interior details.

Why can’t we have a simple beater truck? 6 speed manual, AM radio, crank windows and a big honkin’ V8 diesel or V10?

Sure, the moto was fast, but it sounds like the F1 was spinning it’s tires for the first 3 gears and sitting on the rev limiter a bit before each shift.

To be clear, it was extra extended warranty “insurance” that we purchased when we bought the car. It had a payout limit and other restrictions. It would essentially pay for replacement of one and a half windshields (up to $3K) and then be expired. This was not our personal car insurance. That deductible is more than a…

BMW windshield owner here, I’ve cracked two and they cost around 1700 each. That’s total, parts and labour. Some trim pieces must be replaced and painted when it’s changed so ya, it’s a lot. I’ve HUD and rain sensors and all so maybe that’s it too. I did also get another crack (WTF are X6s windshield angle magnets for…

My 2007 Infiniti G37S is a manual. I don’t drive many miles but drive it every day. I do not plan on ever selling it (plus it’s not worth much anymore).

I’m curious how the on-board filming was done. Since this is way before go-pro days, those cameras must have added 10-20 lbs? In the frontal shots it looks like he has to look to the side to see around it even. 

I miss my old yellow GTI.. it was a fun car however under powered for a V6

F-ing understeer.. why to car manufacturers dial in so much understeer*?

It would be neat if, you know.. they would actually release the video. Not just clips with a news story over it. Surely the copyright has expired.

Alternative headline: Ford makes crappy sedans, will stop making them.

...and the one sober person in that entire clip was the driver.

My purple Esprit.. And everything still works on it!

Automatic.. CP all day!

Went to a conference where the particular speaker said something to his kids like: “You know I can buy pretty much any car for you, I will pay half of any car you want.”

No, he just want to keep track of them so at a press of a button he can ACTIVATE HIS MAD AUTONOMOUS KOENIGSEGG CAR ARMY!!

Orange with a 6 speed manual.. oh wait!

My Infiniti manual does have a lock out of sorts for reverse when going forward.. It will generally refuse unless you’re going pretty slow.

My ‘08 G37S has a manual.. The new Qxxx whatever infiniti uses now has no manual anymore.. boo! My replacement will likely be a M4 manual ordered from the factory. Suck it lap times!
