4 veyrons, is actually a recipe for sadness. Even if happiness were measured in cars, Veyrons would form the antithesis of happiness. Reason is that these cars are only as cool as they are new.. there is nothing compelling about owning one once the next “cool fastest car” has come out (many already have). On the…

the number of stock analysts and investors calling this woman today must be out of this world. forget “beefs”.. she just made herself some money because people will pay for this info. 

larger “sports” sedans have lost relevance. they aren’t fun to drive on road, you can’t really take them on track. they are all stupid fast.. more interesting to have a self-driving “normal” car for daily, and then get a sports car. 

side profile, air intake profile, and rear looks very interesting.. much less blocky than usual. good stuff. 

if i say “flat crank TT V8".. am i believable, or just a wishful listener?

i completely agree with this article. You should buy a car to have it be the maximum of what it’s stated role can be. The luxury sedan should be a self-driving, comfortable, safe, cocooning machine... you don’t want it to be “sporty”.. if you want “Sporty” then you buy a lotus elise, or an alfa 4c (not that maybe) or…

so, maybe their relative value, inflation adjusted, has actually improved dramatically. in other words, as opposed to the original commenter’s statement that they have gotten expensive, they have become a better product AND become cheaper in today’s dollars. maybe, the original commenter just needs to make more $.…

it’s not about the car.. it’s about inflation. purchasing power has decreased across the board for most people. 

a few pics i took from the Raduno also.. and a nice video from the Zonda F behind the Zonda Aether.

my dad had a light green E28 BMW 525i.. and i told my friends it was an M5 because.. #badgedelete and the right wheels. except for the front fog lights it looked just like the one in this film.

see “A.Barth”’s answer below also for some measure of confirmation that you can reliably call your brothers in law wrong-headed bone-heads.

the whole point is “no payment” though.. it’s NOT paying for your car every month. no?

your brothers in law need to understand what a happy medium is. when most people “obsess” over depreciation, it means buying a car with 20,000 miles for 60% of it’s new price, and then driving it for the flatter portion of its depreciation curve during a warranty period, or just outside of it. Your brothers in law are…

expert #2 is right.. depreciation is all perspective.. so is “practicality”. the guy who buys this F80 bmw used will say “i just had a child so i needed a 4 door, and i wanted to make sure I bought a car which has already taken it’s initial depreciation hit. I found this awesome F80 Bmw M3, which i can use for the…

which makes your writing ability that much more impressive. (somebody please read this compliment out loud to Mack)

yea i don’t know why.. i only added one copy of each from google photos folder and then when i saved, most of the pics are gone, and there are duplicates of some.

Ken, are you “Kenny” from Raduno? who drove us around in HP’s van?

i was able to look at one of these up close during the a car rally i participated in May in Italy.. it looks very handmade, not a bad thing.. but just there are so many little parts made just to fit in gaps which seemed unplanned for. This was Eugenio’s (automobiliamos) well-used example.

that car is just a shell of its former self
