I change my vote from the 650S GT3 to this. Looking at the rear tire the amount of rubber exposed due to lack of GFX suggests the GT3 RS. The LED turns also seem to be peaking out from under the cover and the air vents in the cover seem to align with the front facia of the Porsche

Is Ford (or any of those doing this fake noise stuff) offering an on/off switch? Or do they force you to listen to it unless you somehow modify the ECU or stereo or something?

For high mileage usage like this buy something a year old with <10,000 miles on it. No point in buying new when you;re going to have 20k on it by the end of year one. You still get the warranty (albeit slightly shortened) and can get way more can for your $30k like a nicely equipped 328Xi, C350, ATS or A4. Plenty of…

Well considering they are barely breaking 200mph on these 1/4 mile runs with a 60mph roll on there is no way the same car is hitting those trap speeds from a standing start over the same distance. I would estimate these are low 9 second cars around 150mph in a tradition 1/4 mile run

Fair point, but in my mind a street car is one that can be driven long distances in varying conditions on the street wiothout breaking, over heating, etc. The folks that turn out for drag week do just this, often towing trailers. Not saying these lambos, GTRs and vipers couldn't, but I haven't seen most of these do…

This isn't really racing so much as rich kids show boating. There is no accurate way to a gauge fair start and it doesn't look like they had significant timing gear.

Unbeatable bang-for-buck value. Oh, and that blower whine.....

I've regularly had flight attendants offer to hang my garment bag when traveling. Once a first class passenger offered their seat (or even just "their" hanger) it should have been done. This smacks of a military hating liberal trying to stick it to a veteran.

What kind of racing is this? It looks like a rolling start 1/4 mile or something?

A "Modified merc"..... also known as "kid-fucked".

Additionally, there hasn't been an election that the winning party received a majority popular vote since Mulroney in 1988. Prior to that it was Diefenbaker in '58 and '62. The Liberals only achieved it once in the last century with Mackenzie King in 1940. All others were Conservatives of one stripe or another.

I was referring to the majority in Parliament, I thought that was pretty clear from my comment. The majority of MP's ruled on this action.

You do realize that current polling puts national support for military action against ISIS in the two thirds range which is unheard of in our currently polarized political climate:

We don't live in a direct democracy. Instead, you get to vote for your choice of MP's and once elected they are the ones who get to vote on these actions, as they did, and the majority ruled.

From what our national papers have been writing about the dithering in Ottawa it sounds like they are leaning that way. I've also read there are efforts to convince the Pentagon to approve export of the F22 in small number to augment the F18 Super Hornets

R8-V8 pricing or R8 V10+ loaded with options pricing? Like most high end cars today the base model sells for half the price of the top end, fully loaded rig. They could be truthful about the pricing and still trot out a $200,000 NSX

No worries. It's common for the trendy activist to slip up when their argument to everything is "sexist, racist or homophobic"

So BMW is going to race a GT3 car with some CF and fiberglass panels that sort of look like an M6 you can buy but not really? The death of true homologation has made these things quite uninteresting. Kudos to Porsche for making some effort to bring their race cars to the street

Are these actual sales (that resulted in registrations?) or simply dealer deliveries? AFAIK there is no mechanism to report on state-by-state registrations which is why most sales figures are in fact deliveries to dealers in which case this may just be dealers stocking up based on the lowered price and some…
