And that’s why I like to point out that people don’t have a right to drive. It’s a privilege which can be - and in this case probably ought to be - rescinded by the government agency that administers it. If you cannot demonstrate a consistent ability to maintain control over your vehicle at all times, then you cannot…

In the 80's the powerband of the turbo engines was so short, they were incredibly difficult to drive. Not many of today's drivers could master an old F1 car like Senna, Prost, Mansell and Piquet.

Maybe we should have Ben back here more often... what do you guys think about that?

Attending the 100th running on the Indianapolis 500!

*also Stanley Cup Final starts Monday, woo hoo!

Neutral: Attending the Indy 500 of course! Yay speed! *mph not drugs*

I still remember watching this as a kid, and laughing at the guy jumping around like a clown...then dad explained to me that racing fuel burns invisibly, and the guy was on fire and screaming for helm. To my credit...I stopped laughing.

Oh, those folded down seats look like they’d be *very* comfortable to sleep on... if your spine is actually a slinky! (still want it)

I'd buy that just to irritate my wife.

Dammit...that is right near me. Why must you tempt me?

Make it live on forever Patrick!

I know it’s a small car, but it felt much smaller than I really wanted.

The disabled tag in the window is everything.

In the long run it means more jobs for Americans. Look at the union position: Keep overpriced jobs in Michigan and send other jobs out of the country to make up for the loss. Eventually the overpriced job won’t compete and they have to move.

Am I the only one scratching my head at the UAW’s comment about moving jobs from Mexico to the US’ lower-wage states and ‘how does that help the middle class’? Umm...maybe it gives them the opportunity to make a better wage and living than what they’re probably doing now. I would imagine even an entry level auto plant…

1st Gear: Thanks But No Thanks

It normally wouldn’t... but nobody else makes anything like it.

I know this is 2016 and all...but this is the second car they’ve made (excluding the Lotus-inspired Roadster).

God damn infotainment systems ruining cars!!!
