I though that Honda invented the glass hatchback. I wonder if there are earlier examples of this design or if Lambo was first in on this element.

They are also developing processes to use other green materials like mushrooms and soy rather than foam and plastic.

What's the power level ballpark at the wheels as it sits? 250hp/300tq? Seems like a street friendly torque monster.

Nice feature of speed density for sure. I wonder if running the motor hard with a boost leak would prevent the waste gates from opening and cause damage to the turbos since they are spinning well above their designed range.

This is the Lego Derby car we created for our race next weekend with the local cub scouts.

So I'm the only one who sees the resemblance to the Panamera? I would be surprised if these two cars don't share quite a bit of hardware.

Some, maybe all, diesels are less efficient in cold weather so they use more fuel. You want to keep some of that heat in the engine and engine bay to help the motor burn fuel better. The covers help warm up the engine more quickly and simulate warmer conditions. You may have noticed a truck or bus with one of these…

I was once in a pinch to have an oil change done while at work before a long drive that evening. I took my STi to a local reputable import shop where a coworker has his work done. I noted they stock AMSOIL when I walked in and thought this should be cool. When I picked up my car the young lady working the counter…

I've only had 5 minutes behind the wheel of a 6MT Nismo Juke. It wheel hopped something fierce in 1st and didn't really feel fun. I need more seat time before I decide!

The Rally Edition also has "sportier spring, damper, and stabilizer bar tuning" compared to the Veloster Turbo R-Spec.

That's a sweet setup. I guess the premise is to not upset the car but still pull like a banshee. You can also destroke a Subaru 2.5 ej25 to 2.34 and rev to 8,500 and make 450whp.

When I submitted this listing back in July it was $12k. Still crack pipe though. I see it still has the hilariously long list of things fixed.

Excellent write-up. I almost got that adrenaline rush that hits me before a race just from reading this. So jealous. Did you grab an extra sequential gear box that was just laying around?

I didn't see one decent launch or time slip in a new Challenger on the Hot Rod Power Tour this past summer (2014). Even the SRTs were running 13's. MPH was good but no traction. Track temps were brutal in Charlotte which seemed to make it slick for street tires. Norwalk was a little better but plenty of others were…

Meh, the concept is great but my research indicated it wasn't for me. I'm not an audiophile or super tech geek. I am a software engineer. If I'm going to have a big touchscreen I want fast accurate gauges with warnings. Torque is decent but the warnings I need aren't there (namely oil pressure, oil temp, egt) and it…

Glorious. Tell me that's a supercharger whining. Somebody make this a ring tone.

Cool car. Certainly costly to keep up but given initial out of pocket could be fun for a DIY'r or non-daily driver with warranty.

Both!

I haven't gotten a ticket in a long, long time. I was in downtown Canton, OH the Friday after Thanksgiving. We went to meet friends for dinner. I had my wife and kids in our Cayenne. I was looking at road signs and my GPS having never driven in that area before. I got distracted enough to roll slowly through a…

I may as well contribute to the story with a little gifsoup.
