Apparently, it's coming to the UK, too.

I suppose we oughtn’t expect any other type of worldview from a person whose parents own a company with, apropos of nothing in particular, the words “platinum” and “executive” in the name.

Just wait til I start my new exotic supersonic jet plane rental company, Darmstadtium Chairman Expeditions. Then I'll be telling

Also worth noting: with this car’s end, the R8/Gallardo twins are now the only V10-powered automobiles to be produced for the forseeable future. That makes me so, so, so very sad. Nothing sounds better to my ears than a V10.

Maybe my wildest, weirdest dreams will come true and Hyundai's Genesis will eventually make a

Suppose, then, that I just didn't enjoy it. I dunno.

My thoughts exactly. I remember when James May did a segment on driving a particular Ferrari of his, and granting that was one worth many millions, Evans seemed utterly humorless and maybe even just bored by May's presence—totally disengaged from the show. A car enthusiast does not necessarily a good car show host

I'll get one in a decade or so, after depreciation has had its way with it.

They’re really going to need some kind of halo model, something that neither Hyundai nor any non-luxury brand would ever make.

Mid-engine, hybrid V10 roadster, anyone?

Also, the compact crossover isn't going to be Tucson-based. Genesis cars will all be rear-wheel-drive based, and therefore not share platforms with any

That's a tough thing to hear, but whadya gonna do? I'll take a wagon, and a manual M6 roadster.

A manual version of one of these is easily in my top 10 dream cars. Manual, RWD, NA V10, wagon—so damn perfect. Give me one of these, and LFA, and a 1st generation R8 V8 convertible, and I will want for nothing (other than maybe a Cord 812S roadster and a BRM Type 15).

Omigod, seen, won't be unseen.

I'll keep that in mind next time one of you asks one of us to reach something. Or if you ask if we play basketball.

Right, and voting machines are—I'm sure we're all abundantly aware—popularity-measuring devices, not competency-measuring devices. Likewise, the stock market.

I think we’re all quite aware that it’s very easy to build safe-to-test cars; it appears to have become increasingly so over the past few years, with two manufacturers off the top of my head (Ford and Hyundai) designing and implementing specific components to ace specific tests. That’s no discredit to Tesla, but it’s

Well, as long as they “believe”, I suppose it’ll all turn out right. The fact that that sentiment is really not all that far off the truth just shows how stupid things are....

In all seriousness, considering Tesla's success so far, it's totally plausible that the Model 3 will be the car that makes the company. Let's

Well...they arguably did just come up with it in 2007. I just think that if they want to stand out, they should probably devise a more original logo.

I see no particular reason for them not to try and incorporate such an over-the-top tech interface in their future models. Korea is known as a technology powerhouse worldwide, so Genesis would be wise to try and capitalize on that image, especially considering just how tech-heavy cars are becoming these days.

Besides,

They are involved in WRC, but I'd love to see them do something like endurance racing. Normally I'd say F1, too, but that's such a mess right now that, even absurd expense aside, I don't think they should bother.

I wish it did look, or better yet feel, more Korean, whatever that ended up meaning. I think part of the appeal of the German trio—in particular, but also Brits like Aston Martin/JLR, and Italians like Alfa Romeo, Maserati, and Ferrari—is that we can not only project but also kind of see our national stereotypes in

Except that these two models were released way too close to one another for either to have been a direct influence on the other. It's just another example of design convergence/lack of imagination across the industry. Also, if we're going to be pedantic about things, Kia's had that c-pillar shape since the previous
