On many cars the radio is so integrated into the dash you don't always have a choice.

I'd put it in the running as well. I'd be curious about maintenance intervals and overall cost in the long run. With fewer out there we may not see anyone driving a Ford GT that far. With so many GT-Rs sold we should eventually see someone really rack up the miles.

I'm assuming you are referring to the legendary NSX here? I do hope we hear of someone loving and driving their GT-R that much.

When you think about how much power and grip there are, all that stress is on every metal component in between. It seems newer models have mostly fixed this.

I do own one and used to park it really close to a wall frequently with no trouble. I've never measured the farthest it moves out but I have been told less than 12 inches.

All good points. I'd love to see a cost-per-mile analysis between the GT-R and any modern Ferrari or Lamborghini.

Considering that the GT-R has so far proven to be reliable and people are tuning them to insane levels and still maintaining usability, would this be considered the most reliable supercar ever built?

You may not need it. The DeLorean is also hinged near the middle of the roof and only requires about 12 inches of side clearance to open.

Yes, I'd rather not have something built in the car that will look laughably outdated when it becomes a ten year old vehicle.

Yes, I love Trial Mountain as well. Except for the jump on Cape Ring, Polyphony knows how to make a fantasy race course.

Holy crap that is cool. I wonder how stiffening up the car to control roll in the corners affects its ability to compensate for bumps, or is it simply adjusting the angle of the car?

Easy, man. I don't think you know me too well. I am only watching the video at work without sound. I've also seen heads cut open pretty good from being inside an overturned Jeep.

Really dude? What the hell? I've seen it happen many times at Jeep events. Showing concern is not being a baby.

Cool, looks like Dina has been around for a little while at least. 1951 according to Wikipedia. Those even look pretty good for a bus!

Netflix has it. I think it was straight to video.

That's what I came here to say. Some cars look great with a hardtop but that thing looks like a tumor.

Exactly, they had no helmets on and could easily have been severely injured. Without seeing them on camera I'd assume they were.

You are correct, but I have good friends from there who still travel back and forth on business. From what I gather some regions flourish with a very dedicated and proud work force and others are like the wild West.

Those are some interesting points. Even if mainstream domestic cars were not feasible I would think that cheap trucks would really catch on. I'm thinking something along the lines of Tata motors trucks to serve a large industrial work force.

This is probably all true, but I imagine it will change in the near future. It might even outpace China's automaker evolution as far as quality and performance goes.
