The Yugo is only a “car” in the broadest sense of that term

All Makes Combined

No joke. In the past year, Ken Saito has made it very difficult not to visit.

“In thrust you trust”...“beauty and the boost”

Since we’re going on about Supras, let’s revisit a blast from the past...

hey, if ping pong is an olympic event drifting can be racing. Its not the world we chose, but its the one we’ve got.

Compared to the DB10, the front end of the Vantage looks poorly executed. Front end sucks, but the rest of the car is gold.

Back in the day it was said the British liked warm beer because they all had Lucas refrigerators.

Yes that is a thing. Its called a bump box and it controls the transbrake to inch forward.

I’ve been in love with rotaries since I was a kid. I tried to find an FC for my first ‘sports’ car but was unable to find a decent example in my price range and ended up with a Fiero. I then sold that Fiero to buy my RX-8. I’ve been driving it and loving it ever since. Driving a rotary is just such a different, and…

Because of comments like this.

If you take care of the engines as needed (different than a piston engine) they are reliable, and drive great! My first car was an RX-7 and had loved these engines ever since. I have had a few, and have a few, and none have ever had engine issues.

A little piece of me dies when rx-7's receive LS-swaps. I know its the go to bro move, and I can understand the reasoning behind it but it still hurts my soul. I love rotary engine for all its flaws and fury. I just feel like swapping an LS, like everyone else....is just using a cheat code in a video game. Is it…

There is only one thing that’s missing, but it’s key: thermal management. Getting road-going electric cars to do snap necks at launch or even hadle great (due to low Center of gravity and super-precise torque vectoring) are solved engineering problems. Getting them to do that for 30 min straight without overheating…

Our Lady of Blessed Acceleration, don’t fail us now!

Gone In Sixty Two Seconds.

Enhance!

The EcoBoost engine is probably lightweight and 400 HP is more than enough for this thing to haul ass, as the 0-60 time implies. This isn’t “cost cutting”, it’s a smart engineering decision.

I haven’t shopped for one, but is Dodge selling the Charger as a sports sedan?

It’s not supposed to compete with any of those, though. It’s intended to compete with the luxury performance sedan market. At first glance, it’s attractively priced compared to a 4 series Gran Coupe ($43k starting for a turbo 4-cylinder). Can’t really make comparisons until you configure them with similar equipment.
