aetius-alpha

I told myself that my FR-S ownership experience was done and dusted. I was satisfied with my 4 years with the car and had no more need of one. Then they released the green 86. All at once, I was no longer so confident with my decision.  Amazing what a good color will do.  

I generally am not a fan of recent Lexus styling and pretty much hate the predator grille in virtually every application. However, the LC500 is a notable exception and is already a very attractive car. Sadly I’ve only seen a handful in person.

Saw one on the highway on a particularly bright day. It looks unreal, like a Ridler-quality paintjob but on a production car. It’s *nuts*.

So glad that Forest Greens are back in season.

I firmly believe that every car looks good in a stately, non-neon green.  I don’t think I’ve ever seen a bad one.

This is honestly the only new car on the road that caused my jaw to drop as it drove by. Can’t believe how awesome a job Lexus did on this one. Hope I get to see one of these green ones. 

One of the best looking cars on the market today, also one of the best value for money.  And still no way I can ever afford one...

I am in NOWHERE near the market for such a thing, but I wish I was. Man, what a fantastic DD this would be.

Now playing

IDK... The Structural Blue edition was pretty fucking crazy considering HOW the “paint” worked.

This feels like the car that everyone who ever wanted an Aston Martin would buy after they’ve been actually working in the real world for 20-30 years and don’t want to be arsed with British repair bills and lack of dealers.

Mmmm... green over tan. That’s automotive peanut butter and jelly right there. 

That’s not a Type S.

If they can get this on the road in the next two years or so, assuming this punches with the G70 price-wise (and performance-wise), I’m 100% a potential buyer for this. I love BMWs, but between the mile-high price of the new (and thoroughly meh-looking) M340i and a new high-mile commute, I’m not so sold on going back

It’s an opinion.  Sorry it was so upsetting for you.  

This competes with the IS/C Class/3 Series/G70, etc.

I’ve never been this genuinely excited about a JDM vehicle as I have over this Acura rendering. Seriously, It’s been a long time and I miss the good old Acura design and performance. My TL Type S with a stick was a true performance sedan. This thing better not disappoint, and it better have 3-pedals.

Well, then it’d better at least be a little cheaper than a Lexus GS...

It’s a “show of concern” strictly for optics.

Nobody in Congress gives one rats ass about what Ivanka thinks. She’s just playing politics here for vanity.

What’s funny about all of these is back in 2007 Mazda released the Mazdaspeed3 which out hot hatches all current hot hatches except the Civic Type R (and STI but that is too expensive to really compare), for only $24k (back then) for the Grand Touring model. I installed a mid pipe, tune, and SLR cold air on mine and
