    Counterpoint: almost everyone likes fancy cars. However, it’s usually just the jerks who can find a way to make enough money to afford them.

    I think the hard part is going to be the fact that this is the equivalent of running an OS on top of another OS. The PS4 basically runs a customized version of FreeBSD, so any emulation is going to have to emulate that, before running the games themselves.

    I prefer the 1997 model.

    Everyone hated the look of the F1 halo and those cars were designed from scratch with it in mind.

    Considering that people have swapped 2JZs into Miatas, I’d say no.

    Wagon only if it’s brown and diesel powered.

    Can we get this Honey Badger instead?

    Making them easier to break is the wrong way of going about it IMO. What’s going to happen is that drivers are going to take less risks. This would be fine in a regular circuit where there’s a lot of space that drivers can use to overtake. In a street course however, there isn’t much space so this runs the risk of

    So, slow, heavy and unexciting?

    That new front end ruins the look IMO. The Escalade’s grille and headlights are pretty much how you can identify it from all the other large SUVs on the market. What they’ve done is the equivalent of replacing a 911's headlights with those from an Audi.

    I dunno. Cars that are easier to break usually results in drivers driving more conservatively which sounds like the wrong thing to do when you're primarily racing on tight street circuits. Even F1 is moving to make their cars tougher for the 2021 season, so this feels like a step back. 

    Nope. Obviously damage control on his part. 

    Except Bugatti did produce a model called the Veyron 16.4 Pur Sang.

    According to more recent statements from Alonso, the “GP2 engine” comment wasn’t something he meant to be heard publicly. During that time, the drivers were still not used to the amount of radio chatter the broadcast team were focusing on, so he was apparently caught off guard.

    The fact that they’re even mentioning it in a survey probably means that they actually are considering it.

    The stage winner that day was Nasser Al Attiyah in a factory-backed Toyota entry, running a time of one hour seventeen and a half minutes. Ken Block basically jumped into a brand new vehicle he’d never driven before, albeit one with 750 lb/ft of torque and a 3600 pound race-weight, and ran an unfamiliar stage without
