Interior reviews usually mention that they look as nice as Audi/BMW interiors but don’t feel as nice, both in terms of materials and switchgear. It makes sense to me, as achieving that last 10% of niceness probably takes 90% of the development cost.

I think it looks better than the final C8 design though. Lol.

I upgraded to both an XB1X and PS4 Pro last year (net cost of only $200, trading in an XB1 and PS4)... absolutely nothing I’ve seen about the new consoles makes me even slightly interested in upgrading again.

The LM002 was from the ‘80s, technically, and you know that a LOT of the white stuff was inhaled in the meeting where that idea came up.

PS3 is the only exception I can think of, if you got the 60gb version. It was expensive, but had the best game support (since it was fully backwards compatible) and hardware (backwards compatibility and large HD size).

Mazdas are fantastic cars, not just for the money. Interior quality is great, they look fantastic, and they handle very well despite not being “performance” cars in any way.

Try driving one. Their interiors have been great from the beginning (curving for era, obviously). Both the feel of the switchgear and their quality of manufacturing... my 911 is 36 years old and every single thing in the interior is original, and still works. Except the stereo... I wanted Bluetooth, but the original…

This is exactly the kind of logic I tell all my friends when they ask for good advice.

The people who buy Bugattis probably also have at least one car each from Bentley, Lamborghini and Porsche.

This was my understanding also, they’re an electronics company that got into carmaking. Kind of like Dyson, except successfully.

No. HP2 then UG2.

They’re like go-karts, they don’t feel that slow. And, as others have mentioned, these are momentum cars not dragsters. They handle far, far better than they should on the narrow tires they have, and you can keep up with much more powerful cars through the twisties.

Agreed. My dad had one back in the early 2000s, they’re hugely underrated and very fun to drive. They can be maintenance pigs if neglected, though, and I’m guessing those “original parts that survive” are all ticking time bombs at this point.

I was briefly* acquaintances with a guy who grew up with Baker Mayfield and was a personal friend of his, to the point that they were regularly texting each other halfway across the country. All I’m going to say is, if Mayfield isn’t himself an actual, full-blown racist, he is absolutely sympathetic to that side of…

“If it was a bad idea, I wouldn’t recommend it.”

Let’s be real here, the goal of carbon fiber is weight reduction and the RS7 needs that a helluva lot more than this 3300lb flyweight. Lol.

I wouldn’t say I lust after it, but I agree that it’s great-looking and a welcome break from all of the over-styled cars today. Everything now is too overwrought, from the Corolla to the Senna. This has a lovely and much-needed Porsche 911/Alfa 4C-esque simplicity. I also think they did a phenomenal job integrating…

There’s been one (1) major change through the 56 years of the 911, which was the change to the 996 platform and the water cooled engines.

Which IMO is proof positive that it works perfectly.

Couple things:
