BMW has put together some fine FWD cars already.

Well, it looks way cooler than the VW Up!, which I guess would be it's competition, right?

Let's hope they work as good as the ones they installed in the Southfield Freeway not long ago. Those worked for about three weeks, now none of them light up.

Oh, and I'm not being totally tongue-in-cheek. I have not matured significantly in the last 20 years and would consider purchasing a factory batshit turbo Civic.

Give me. I want to slather it in Type R stickers and PIAA bulbs and stuff from the NOPI catalog so that I can relive the late 90s all over again.

Leno's garage?

Hyperbole generates clicks. Just ask Denton.

I know the P1 is so bonkers that they will likely all go straight into collector's hands and locked away. And that creates enough mystique to eventually sell a crapload of P13s for those who can't quite swing a 12C.

I absolutely hated the old one, and insisted it would be eventually regarded worse than the Mondial in Ferrari's history.

I'm probably being cynical, but I suspect more sports car purchases by are made based on image and bullet points on a Powerpoint to drop at the bar rather than anything else. Making and selling sizzle is a lot easier than creating a perfect steak.

Every time I back out of the hobby for a year or two quantum leaps occur. It's insane.

Wait, VW is killing Steve Jobs? Didn't he already die? Did anyone alert Gizmodo?

I recently learned that technology of model planes has gotten good enough that there are some you can fly from a first person view. Like, on a hobbyist budget - quick mental math adds up to under $1k for everything. You have to be willing to look like the King of the Nerds, but pretty amazing stuff.

Huma luma heema numma huma lumma yeeeah, that's it.

Bring on the inevitable comparison. Rumor has it BMW is developing a M4 Grand Coupe Grand Turismo Coupe Hatch. Coupe.

I totally was expecting at least some hint.

Robert Stirling. 1816.

Butzi didn't even design the 911, let alone the engine.

Maybe the Note Jr will fall less flat than it's father.

I came here to say "Electric Soul" would be a great band name.
