Ordering vehicles right now is very long lead time. Chip and other supply shortages.

In what way? High or low?

It was slow, boring to drive. Conceptually cool, but a huge letdown in all performance metrics.

What were you driving as a reference where the CR-Z was fun? It was boring coming from a 4 cyl Accord...

And the management of the program and the product development leadership at Ford knew this >2 years before launch and didn’t reverse course. Billions in warranty later...

You need some coworkers to have an ultimately pointless, but funny debate on this very topic at lunch with you, and conclude what a door really is.

Agreed with the whole list except the F40. If I could afford an F40, I’d absolutely own an F40.

9/28/21

Honestly, yeah. That would have been amazing actually. Coupes with hatches are hot.

Chevrolet has been in a hurry to make almost every vehicle they make ugly, so that isn’t helping it, but...

Only because the Mustang got worse in every way in 1974.

I drove one of these (a 2019 Redsport) recently. The interior looks a bit dated, but it’s very functional and unoffensive. I find the exterior decent looking still, also. The real problem is that the transmission completely betrays the car and engine, in particular. It is a woefully unworthy transmission to a “sport”…

What have you raced outside of video games?

9/14/21

Stewards judged that Hamilton had given Max enough room on the entry to 1. It was up to Max not to crash after that (it is the responsibility of the passing driver). He could’ve done exactly what Lewis did on lap 1, turn 4 of that same race.

9/14/21

See Monza 2021 Lap 1, Turn 4 for why it’s on Max.

9/14/21

You’d be right if Max had been ahead of Lewis. Since he never was ahead and definitely wasn’t even close to being ahead on the beginning of the entry to the corner, it’s Max’s responsibility to not crash into the driver he’s trying to pass. That includes judging when to back off and go over the kerbs just as Lewis did…

9/14/21

There was no guarantee that Hamilton would win that race and the penalty was assessed independent of the outcome of the incident (as is per the regulations of the sport).

9/14/21

Max was never ahead at any point, and only got as far along as he did because his position depended on Lewis to allow him to re-enter the track. Go rewatch the footage.

Your assessment is wrong. Have you ever raced anything?
