    The building with the iconic escalators is Building 2, not Building 4.

    After 10,000 years she’s free!

    In the situation that e_is_real_i_isn’t described, the issue isn’t the quills, its the length of the car and how being too long means it has trouble navigating turns of a certain radii.

    It was a warmed over NP300 Navara though, which is on the list.

    Kind of surprised that only the 70 Series pickup was chosen when you can still get all sorts of 70 Series Land Cruisers abroad where they’re usually bought for NGO work or for any companies that need a reliable workhorse to use out in the bush. There’s actually a company in Gibraltar that outfits these for the UN or

    It’s a Hilux, whatever tries to run it over will probably end up in a heap at the side of the road while the Hilux driver wonders what kind of bird hit it.

    It’s a bit of a solution in search of a problem, one that isn’t really better than any other existing option.

    I mean, historic F1 races do exist, though they’re obviously not spec, instead using whatever old F1 cars are in the hands of collectors. Also, probably not enough of these around for Honda to let it be raced, let alone run hard outside of a few press events.

    You forgot to mention that Scapes mode now has drift settings and effects. Meaning we now can all make the obvious.

    The 812 and most of its brethren come from an era where everything Ferrari was focused on an aura of absolute performance over everything else, one that they’re only starting to walk back from starting with the Roma. Jason Cammisa explains it quite well on his video on the latter.

    The straked vents look almost like an afterthought, as if they remembered that strakes were their thing at the very last minute, drew some lines and called it a day.

    I think it comes from following an era of handsome, if understated (almost anonymous, as with the 612's predecessor, the 456) Ferraris.

    While the Scag is ugly, that’s only down to its inspiration–the 375MM Scaglietti-Bergman that Roberto Rossellini had commissioned for his wife, Ingrid Bergman–being questionable in the looks department as well.

    Counterpoint, my A/C is one of the things I fiddle with the most, living in a tropical country where the weather can go from blazing hot to sopping cold and wet in the blink of an eye.

    Need to point out that there’s some doubt on the “official” story of how the Silver Arrows started. The first mention of this came from Alfred Neubauer’s memoirs in 1958 and if there was anything old Alfred was known for, it was embellishing stories to suit his narrative and create excitement. Moreover, no reference

    A race team would more likely be using a pneumatic wheel gun. 

    Looking around, pneumatic wheel guns tend to go for $6000 or more, on top of the cost of the compressed air system.
