It’s actually depressed, per the shadows in that very picture; it’s an extractor rather than an intake.

Imbeciles all over keep implying capitalism and what seems to be the groupthink notion of socialism are concepts that exist on the same plane and can thus be polar opposites when that is completely incorrect.

I would agree, the value proposition is an absolute joke. ANYTHING to try and maintain the perception that their vehicles are sufficiently premium to justify their margins when, frankly, not a single one of Audi’s vehicles is worth anything approaching the price they command new and certainly not the under-developed e-…

No. Even before throwing in the towel, the American brands struggled to build compelling non-CUV/SUV cars.

All they have to do is choose to sell the cars they still make for Europe...in the US...should they ever need them.

Make ugly cars, see ugly returns.

So, this car is cool and I appreciate what it’s doing so right, but I will confess that I am rather apathetic about its existence. Will this car have any impact on what most of us are able to buy? No? Next!

Right clothing and right tires!

That depends on if you push yourself or not, and people who push themselves will push regardless of whether there is an electric motor in there and the only end result is that they go faster and farther for the calories burned.

They are called recumbent bicycles, and they come in many flavors with and without external fairings. They also come in trikes. It would not be hard to add a motor and batteries to the entire assembly.

Because then they’d sell increasingly fewer manual ones and, with the car now more accessible, pudgy milquetoasts will become the core clientele and the car will cease to exist.

All this coming from a die-hard, life-long manual owner.

I don’t dismiss what it can do, only my ownership of one. I like my cars to be the complete package inside and out, ergo why it is so hard for me to find new cars I actually like.

Put the seat further back and use your hip instead of your knee.

Can we introduce a new tradition and have the oval tracks be the exception rather than the rule?

Genial Motifs

I want a manual car, but nobody is making manual cars I want. I don’t want a hatchback. I don’t want a WRX. I don’t want an American pony car. I want something bigger than a two-seat pocket rocket. I would prefer AWD or RWD.

It’s alright, we all become uncool in time, you just need to accept that you have reached that time. Embrace your defeatist, fuddy-duddy self.

The ECU would have to be cracked. I don’t think a piggyback tuning chip can do it.

Could an APR tune get rid of that rev hang?
