People who haven’t sat in the car make the best arguments about how the good or bad the ergonomics of the car are.
Person: I’m going to buy a C8!
The spokes look like jet wings and the interior looks like a jet cockpit.
Really impossible to argue otherwise, unless you willfully distort the meaning of the term “fascist”. Authoritarian nationalism focused on bringing benefits to the “true people” and bringing back their golden age while targeting and scapegoating the “bad people” who are the cause of all ills. Trump’s rallies…
Porsche is finally getting serious about a NASCAR entry.

Before we freak out about a potential 6-figure price tag, lets remind ourselves of two things: 1) That $69,850 GTR from 2007 would cost $86,290 in 2019 money, and 2) these are the other mid/rear-engine supercars that will compete with the C8:
We did but in America votes don't matter.
A mid-engine American sports car besides the Ford GT (and the meh looking American-built NSX) with a proper V8 behind you and for one-sixth the price of a GT. Oh wow, just wow.
I don’t get all the hate in the Jalopnik comments about this car. I think it looks great, more like the supercars it is trying to emulate, it sounds incredible, and it will be an excellent value for the level of performance. Is it a badge thing?
You should have pointed out the obvious. Obama played many public courses in the area, as well as various courses around the country, and as such the money spent on his golf outings fed local economies.
