That’s just stuff being regurgitated by what they see online.

I don’t care what anybody says, these still look good. I just can just never own one because I would be stereotyped to hell lol.

The cooling system.

You got me thinking. It is easy to confuse systems with parts. As far as systems, Wulf92's Rube Goldberg’s path of an Audi V8 timing chain path should get 1st place. I was going to mention the Mercedes R129 convertible top system that relies on 11 or 12 hydraulic cylinders, and a dozen or so microswitches to tell the…

The 2JZ is a legendary engine because they didn’t go cheap, or skimp out on stoutness even though they obviously could have.

The entire car on any Toyota Corolla.

There is a third button that toggles between front, rear, and both windows. And yes, that means all that added complexity actually only eliminated ONE button, not two.

I think most of us understand that the 2JZ and the RB26 aren’t overengineered so much as they’re overbuilt.

And built like a gibbon.

As a huge Porsche fan that is so cool. I guess that’s why their regular cars are so robust: the trickle down effect.

Assuming we’re not using “over-engineered” as a pejorative (I don’t think we are) can we just say pretty much everything from Koenigsegg? 

Basically ANY motor assisted door, handle, screen, hitch, steering column, etc...I give power seats, side mirrors, & hatch/sliding doors a pass though.

BMW S54 individual throttle body. Every cylinder having its own air flow controller

My example is when more equals less: some engineers gave way too much thought in the elimination of independent front/rear window switches on the Volvo EX30 and VW ID.4. It’s almost like the engineering team sat down and pontificated “is it possible to overcomplicate one of the most basic things that have been…

The Porsche LFA should be the header for this QOTD.

The SC300/400/Soarer door hinges. They swing out and forward on the fender so there is less room taken up by the 1000lb 75Ft door

Starred for Prince, tolerated for Beyonce. I honestly don’t have her top 5.

I took one look at the headline and though “Well, Prince is obviously #1, no contest” 

How is it not street legal?

Honda ended up putting it's version into production.
