That's the point though, Chris Harris tested the F12 on a track, and even there in order to do drifts he had to change up from 3rd to 4th on a lot of corners, otherwise there was too much power. On a fairly fast track by a guy who used to teach a drift school. It went through 5 sets of tires in a day. He burned

I think maybe that's part of it with most cars... in this though I think it is more of a case of the car having so much power it's never usable. So you never really wind the car out or can use it to it's full potential without things getting sketchy quickly. Sort of how driving a slow car fast can be more fun because

Chris Harris said the same thing about the F12..... kind of crazy that two people who love power and drifting have both said it's too much.

Comfortable, easy to drive, fairly stealthy, still goes like hell.

My car right now either has a leaky valve stem or a nail, I haven't had time to get it repaired yet so I've just been filling it up with the air compressor the past week or two.... the TPS light goes on and grip goes to shit way before the tire looks flat.

Better yet, replace ultra suede with fake suede... or polyester suede... because really it's a fancy name for fake suede leather.

Seems to be going pretty well for Bentley.

I think it's because they aren't flawed. Anyone who has the money could easily own one, and because of that they kind of do. Also it's like Audi, extremely capable without being very communicative. That said James Mays video on the GT speed kind of stirred my heart a bit...

Yeah, I mean sure. They are a little Audi-ish. A little to good at everything, not excellent at anything in particular. Amazingly capable, however not very inspiring or communicative to drive.... yet Both Audi and Bentley seem to be selling things like crazy.

I think traction control should be replaced with electronic stability control. Sure traction control makes sure you aren't spinning your tires, but stability control makes sure you aren't spinning your car. (Unless we are just using these terms synonymously now).

Porsche already sells a sportscar for $50k that does 0-60 in 5.8 seconds.... If you follow their formula something cheaper must be slower... So we're talking FRS/Mini Cooper S/Miata/128i levels of acceleration. If you're buying a Porsche, is that really fast enough?

That's starting to become the norm I think. The new A4 also has a fancy parallel parking overlay also, although idk how useful it is.

Oh absolutely. Sadly I was never able to get my hands on the supercharged model though, but even NA it's such an awesome car.

As opposed to something which is mid-mid engined. Such as the Toyota previa.

To support this opinion I would like to present a truly mid engined car:

Also whatever color this is.

Oh it's still around...

I personally would never own a car in this color however I have a lot of respect for BMW for making it. It's a different and interesting take on yellow/gold.
