If this actually happens, there may be another Mazda in my driveway in a few years from now. I wonder why Mazda hasn’t attempted a performance rotary hybrid yet...I keep thinking that a wankel combined with an electric motor would be quite the synergistic combination. Super smooth on both ends, with bottom end/torque…

That's quite the caboose.

Someone (maybe Kyvat) needs to tell Vettel that “rubbin is racin”....

Considering how this is VAG we’re dealing with, it very well could be a Huracan/R8 spin off, Porsche style with a multi turbo’d flat 8. As long as it’s not butt ugly, I’d be down with it.

New models that are purchased right after launch have more problems. Complex cars costing over 100k have more problems. Falcon doors, autonomous abilities, worlds largest single piece of automotive glass...it doesn’t surprise me that some of the “early adopters” are having issues. The only thing that worries me with…

Miata’s should be N/A. End of story. Laggy turbos that disconnect your foot from the car don’t seem very “driving matters-ish” to me.

Yes please. AWD, 2.5t in red. 3 pedals?! Whateves, their auto is doable.

That's a glorious marine duncecap.

Put the spokes with a solid color (black) paint job, and it’d be just about perfect. As it is, the dragster is too much “look at me” for my tastes....but I guess that’s what they’re going for.

I simultaneously love and hate this comment.

Handbrakes are fun, but I don’t think that’s the kind of antics Ford had in mind when they created it. Although I’m sure if Mr. Block wants one that way, he can get one. I think (hope?) it’s perfect just how it is, but I could see it getting a certain 5.2 liter flat crank V8 at some point. Maybe even with Turbos.

If Autonomous cars can prevent 90% of traffic fatalities, it’s a no brainer. I think that once we get to full implementation of mature AD systems, it will be closer to 99+%. I just hope I can still take over on the back roads occasionally. If not, maybe I’ll keep one of my ICE cars for that. On the other hand, in the…

The “sea” model looks the best IMO. To my eyes, it looks better proportioned with the bigger wings.

That was absolutely great. Best thing I've seen in a while. Bravo dad, bravo.

The looks=best aero of any SUV/Van, ever, apparently. And uh, it’s not a 911/R8 because it’s not a car/sports car/super car. It’s just as fast as one. Besides all that nonsense, it’s quite the achievement. I wish I could afford one.

The top three most obvious alternatives that come to mind are...

Leave Portland alone!! Eeehhh, too late.

Is this really the world we live in?

187 is a totally ridiculous number. I still can’t believe how stupid our leadership is sometimes. It’s time to fire up that production line, and double or even triple the amount of Raptors we have. Oh, and screw the JSF in favor of it.

Gorgeous is an understatement.
