Uh oh. 7am. Way off the road. 40 mph speed limit. gentle curves. I hope him the best but I’m curious how this happened

Counterpoint: The world will be a little better with the Cross Turismo. If anyone can make long roofs cool again to the general public, it’s Porsche.

Panamera still has the coolest deployable spoiler in recent history:

Real drivers slide the lever to select cool-ish or earth’s core temperatures.

I used to sell Buicks. They aren’t as terrible as everyone seems to think, but they are bland as fuck.

This isn’t an Easter Egg. This is crashing into your living room on Christmas morning while revving those 702 ponies to the moon

Rolls Royce, Ferrari, and any other high-end manufacturer. Their days are clearly numbered though.

I’ve never really minded the fried egg headlights, but my absolute favorite thing about them is the undue amount of rage they induce in Porsche enthusiasts. Anything that makes the crotchety old men at Cars & Coffee mad is good in my book.

Could you please keep these opinions to yourself for at least another 2-3 years? I should have garage space available by then to own a 996/986 Porsche, and I feel that the fried-egg sentiment is one opinion that is helping keep those prices at least semi-sane for the time being.

It would only be a moderate pain in the ass (removing trim from the trunk to the rams in the back seat beneath the C pillar) - except that in this car, there’s a…

The Hayabusa exists to supply engines to batshit crazy smart cars and the like.

“Abrasions from trapped detritus and premature rust from trapped moisture are a small price to pay to avoid the much less consequential peppering of the hood’s leading edge.”

I’m voting NP, but just be aware of how much may be involved in dealing with convertible top issues.

Still, a good idea though. Even if it’s just the title of a plan, not even a concrete plan, it gets people going. The pessimists will raise all the questions, the optimists will dream the impossible, the realists will write down what can be done. Even a baby step is a step forward.

We’re talking a rolling goal, in more than a couple of ways.

would you prefer he stick his head up his ass and keep subsidizing the oil companies? at least he’s trying to move the conversation rather than drag us back to 1950.

The Fit is dead.
