Ascari blue is named after the race track? *sigh* For shame! Yes there is a track but it’s named after Alberto Ascari and the blue is because of his blue helmet that he thought was a good luck charm. He also always wore blue shirts or coveralls as well.
As usual, (us) Europeans are not able be listened to as consumers, because we have neither the ability nor the support to make large companies bend.
There’s no COTD on the weekends, you idiot! ...but I feel your spirit!
I’m going to pull a Tavarish here and post one that MAY go for 20k:
I’m going to go with this classy little silver arrow with 350 ponies under the hood. It’s decent looking, RWD and these things have a pretty decent ride.
All right. That red one looks nice, and you’re leaving change in the bank for escrow for your mechanic, very sensible.
2006 Cadillac STS-V. 4.4L super charged north-star V8 putting out 440hp/430lb-ft, 6spd auto, 4.6 seconds to 60. When Car & driver tested it in 2006 is beat the CLS55 AMG, but could not beat the M5. It is 1 owner, elderly driven. All yours for $18,500.
Wow, this sounds fucking terrible. The future sucks.
Other than the 919 there isn’t really another possible answer.
What about a Doug DeMuro special?
2005 XJR for $14,686.00
At a current price of almost $29B, buying Tesla will barely move the Apple cash needle. If they want to put out a car, this is far and away the best option for quick development.
Here is the production version.
There are many examples, but I will just leave this here........
I understand the proverb. Obviously it is still easy to make a beautiful car...there are plenty of examples out there. But it is much easier to make a car that is beautiful and fits your heritage/design cues and themes when you are building the car from the ground up, like Jag did with the F-type.
Who cares if hydrogen is a “useless” fuel source now? The point is automotive companies are finally experimenting with this tech. Hydrogen fuel cells don’t get enough credit in our modern world despite them being badass ways to generate tech. There only emissions are pure water and their fuels are some of the most…
There’s no such thing as understated wealth anymore. And bling has replaced style.
This car looks like a cheap Chinese ripoff of itself. Baudrillard would be enamored
I’m pretty well interested in what it takes to melt the stock pistons and make connecting rods exit the block in a 640hp car that has a 70,000 mile powertrain warranty. You’d figure Cadillac would have overbuilt it enough where another 360hp wouldn’t exhaust the safety margin on a car that’s already so ludicrously…
