I was happy to see a real Rolex Daytona 24 hour prize watch in person once. I took a class at Proformance Racing school near Seattle and the chief instructor is Don Kitch Jr. who is an all around great guy to learn from and chat with.

I fell in love with this car once I saw it in person. I can't believe all you get for the price in such a gorgeous package. Between this and the Fusion I don't see why you'd get anything else in its class.

Thank you for your rational response. That's the kind of thing that restores my faith in internet commenters.

I shared your roof concerns when I was wanting a Miata. In 2011 I bought one with the power retractable hard top and it is amazing. So much quieter and secure than the soft top and only 80 pounds more which leaves hardly any measurable effect on performance.

I did not know this was a thing, and I kind of want it just for the weird factor.

High end German autos aren't exactly cheap to repair, especially with track use. Even with the shared mechanicals the service cost for the Lamborghini name is incredible.

I'd love to see all the service costs on this thing. Two rebuilds each on the engine and transmission seems low to me for a hard driven Italian exotic. After hearing some Ferrari rebuild stories I would expect this one would need even more care.

They almost look too simple compared to the rest of the car. I'd like some black trim bezels that angle outward to the bumper to tie it together and match the styled vents all over the body.

Yeah, I didn't mean to generalize. From what I've heard it sounds like it is difficult to own and park a car around Honolulu, is this true?

How lenient are police around Oahu? I'm hoping they're so laid back because it's so damn beautiful everywhere and not ticket happy because everyone's a tourist.

I just learned what DINK was, but that's us. This is my baby which will happily take us on a carefree weekend getaway. Two seats, light weight and low horsepower will always make me smile.

How are they going to slam the gearshift around in this thing? I'm assuming they'll mix in some gun sound effects every time a paddle is pulled, which will be every two seconds.

The Suzuki Kizashi could really have benefitted from a little video game exposure. It won't be the most competitive car in a video game but solid enough for enthusiasts to enjoy.

Awesome pic! Thanks for that.

The current Optima is truly a fantastic looking car. I don't care how someone feels about the brand, every styling cue works so well together and is up there with almost anything the Germans have designed.

If I had a Panda, every time I'd get out after a drive I'd have an irresistible urge to pat it on the hood.

This was my first choice.

Thank you! Holy hell, I don't get what people see in this show. I've tried watching it on a few occasions and can barely make it through the forced nerd humor.

I don't understand this company using Smart cars for their car sharing service. I know they are good for the city, but the person who doesn't own a car and only occasionally needs to use one does so because they have more stuff to haul around than they can carry on their bicycle or the bus. The Smart car has barely…

Yeah, even in winter it's top down and heat blasting. I know the car will keep a smile on your face.
