Agreed, and more than that, the manual ones will certainly become future classics. The car looks great today, not aged as you mentioned. Back in 2003, it was bat-shit insane. It was light years ahead of the competition, night and day difference. Well just look at the Ferrari 360. Looks dated and did not age well IMHO…
I’m sorry but every time I see one of these “customer takes their car on track and warranty is voided” posts I am in complete and utter shock and disbelief. I am a dealer master tech for BMW and we have MANY customers who track their cars. If the failure is not directly related to an “incident” such as a money shift…
It’s never “period.” “Period” is a red flag that means there are actually a thousand exceptions to whatever the writer just said.
Because PSI alone is meaningless. What actually matters is mass flow rate, and for any given intake tract (Turbo, piping, intake manifold) it’s going to to take a different PSI to get the same mass flow rate.
Holy ground clearance batman!!!!
show me on the beef where he touched you with the chalkboard.
Toyota’s strategy with Lexus was to launch the brand with an opus. The original LS was absolutely the best car that Toyota could possibly build. They benchmarked it against the best they could find for every attribute and had a total of 3,700 employees assigned specifically to the LS development program, which lasted…
10 years. That’s like... *counts on fingers* *carries the three* 57 years in Jalopnik time!
Oh hell, a few more because why not!
On 5/1, on my way to Brescia from Florence for the start of the Mille Miglia, my brother and I detoured an hour out of our way to drive this road. It is incredible!! And I can’t recommend stopping for a pizza 1/2 way up at “Ristorante Brasa”.
If you want a lightweight sporty car, perhaps the 7 and 8 series are a poor place to start.
The 6 series coupe and gran coupe looked fantastic. I really hope the build a new 6 series, because I would hate for this thing to take the 6's place.
But have you considered that it has 2 doors, a long hood, AND wide fenders?
Hnnnng...
Honestly the Buick Avista concept looks better. Too bad they wont make the fuckin beauty.
It also makes finding a used one a little more tricky. With so many different combination of options, you probably won’t find too many that are alike. Makes it a little tougher to gauge what’s a fair price.
“Whats the first thing that comes to mind when you think of Chevy?”
Its a 2009-2013 Suzuki Grand Vitara dash
Are you nuts? Driving this thing anywhere will create a crowd. And that crowd will include those who favour Porsche and Ferrari.
If you care what the other car owners think, this is not the car for you. Especially when they are behind you.
