What have you got against trail braking?

Yeah I'm not sure what it is. I mean there's going to be more drivetrain loss than if it was FWD and some extra weight, but still it seems to be just barely quicker than a GTI while the numbers would make you think it should be much quicker.

The only car on this list I'm sort of surprised by is the Golf R... then again I guess due to drivetrain loss it winds up not being that much quicker than a GTI for a lot less cash. Not to mention, apparently no on in the states can drive stick.....

Just for comparison sake:

Nowadays, they're basically interchangeable. The car is the 911 Carrera and the variations are things like the S(sometimes called 2s for RWD), 4, 4s, targa, turbo, gt3, etc. That's pretty much how it's been since the 996, however porsche doesn't tend to badge their Turbo or GTX cars with carrera for whatever reason

The turbo and the GT3 don't seem to have Carrera badging, everything else pretty much does.

As an american, 2,000 calories seems like the upper end of what you should eat if you want to maintain your weight...

2000 calories/day is low? :'(

That would be fantastic... I mean look at what Jaguar has been able to do with with some Tata money!

How does this work? Isn't a large part of drifting have to do with steering and opposite lock and all that stuff? Unless they've just trained a robot to drift?

No problem! :)

This is a very fair point I hadn't considered, but still, loss of pressure wouldn't be the problem. Your tires turning into balls of molten rubber on the other hand would be a bit of an issue lol.

You came to the right person!

While they're technically correct, even with nitrogen the pressure in your tire changes with the temperature. PV=NRT(ideal gas law), you decrease temperature then the pressure or the volume has to go down as well. Adversely you increase temp, your pressure or volume has to go up. Since the tire is relatively rigid,

I actually think the new Cayman's are drop dead gorgeous. Possibly one of the best looking cars porsche has made in 20 years.

You were the perfect person to make such a comment!

This is true. There are still a number of small brewers who do prime their bottle with sugar during bottling, but pretty much anything done on a large scale these days is force carbonated.

Honestly, it was a good car in 2001. Cheap, unique styling, efficient, the problem is they never updated it for something like 10 years.

Nope! Not since this model:

You're claim was that we aren't missing out on anything. I simply provided a list off the top of my head of cool cars we don't get. I never claimed they would be high sellers or money makers... however I'd argue a lot of those cars weren't exactly high sellers in Europe or Japan either. (Skylines, EVO FQ's, RS6
