When I was a younger man, I neither had, not MADE any money. And as a result, I drove junkers. I think I’ve had enough unreliability to last me a lifetime. (Had a ‘76 Mercury Comet break down on the side of the freeway 9 miles from the next exit in 10 degree weather, at midnight, in the pre-cell phone era).

HUGE Maserati fan here. But I’ve never owned one. I had the SERIOUS hots for a Granturismo until I started reading about the problems, and the near constant need for expensive service. Then when the ghiblit came out, I was hopeful that they had FINALLY made a car that I could use as my “starter Maserati” to hold me…

“And the seat cushion was NEVER found”.

But will the revolution be televised?

Aren’t these the same people that laugh at people in the south when the same thing happens there?

Perhaps the MOST impressive thing that Jackie did was SURVIVE.  He raced in the highest risk era of F1.  I’ve read that the average lifespan for a new F1 driver during that era was less than 80 days.  

No 911 clone?  HAH!  No interest!

Huh, I wonder what software version he was using?

Mazda 787B strangely missing from list.

I lovingly referred to Kubica as “Balls of steel” as some of the stuff he would do in the car was just SHOCKINGLY ballsy. As much as I’d like to see him in a car, I can’t help but think that he might have an issue. You always hear about how brutal these cars are to drive, and how physically taxing. Well, look at the…

Saw it live on TV and said “Shit, he’s dead.”  Just AMAZING.

“I can’t believe you kiss your cock at night!”

NO, just no.  Run away, far and fast.  

To ME, it smells like natural gas with a hint of decomposition.  The taste is pretty good.  (If you can get past the smell).

The chassis is tubular steel, with a fiberglass bottom. Yep, they make them in house, and you wouldn’t consider a 0-60 mph time of 2.8 seconds a supercar?

I should mention that I owned one, and I had NO trouble passing the follow on the track:
Ford GT (NOT a kit, the real one made by Ford/Multimatic)
Acura NSX
Porsche…

From what I understand, they BUILD them there.  They make a good chunk of the parts, and then assemble those parts into a car.

Huh, the Ariel Atom isn’t a supercar. Who knew?

(TMI builds the Ariel Atom at their factory adjacent to VIR in Virginia).

“The night of the fight you’re gonna feel a sting. That’s pride fucking with you. Pride never helps, it only hurts. You gotta fight through that shit.”

Mx-5 still sorely lacking.

I wondered that myself.
