You, and most actual car enthusiasts that want the rawest version of a car, are the minority. People who spend 6 figures on a car want as many bells and whistles as they can get.

It just proves that a race variant of a street car is more fun - not that the street NSX isn’t a great car.

How does it prove the haters right? He still said the road car was spectacular to drive.

The rear quarters are essentially the “true” color of the car, as that’s a part of the unibody. All the other body panels attach to that one piece. It’s entirely feasible that you could start with 4 harlequins of different colors and then swap panels till they are all one color each.

You’re out of your mind.

Preach!

I wouldn’t say MOST - there’s also Florida.

Golf mk2/3 had a solid beam axle rear suspension - I suspect that this guy used the front cradle from a mk2/3 so that he could use a VW transaxle.

I’ll probably be buying one of these. Price is comparable to the Tacoma TRD Pro.

That’s the best part!

That S600 V12 is massively underrated by Mercedes. I’ve seen those things dyno at over 510 whp and damn near 700 ft/lbs dead stock.

It sort of is a stunt button - they just market it differently. The “drift mode” in the Focus RS functions the exact same way. Traction control systems work through feedback loops. McLaren just added a potentiometer that allows a driver to adjust the inputs from the system itself.

I’d actually be curious to see a completely pointless comparison between a race prepped MK.II GT-40 and it’s modern day predecessors. Could they possibly be close on track??

To me, this looks like these vanlife people have figured out a way to actually make a living doing little to nothing. You can call it selling out if you like, but at the end of the day, they’re doing exactly what they want to do while making a living.

The spindle/steering knuckle - it is often referred to as the “front upright”

Yea, you’re right. There were iron equivalents of the 6.0 used for trucks - I had no idea they switched to all aluminum motors.

I think this is using an aluminum block. All the previous models had the iron block.

Realistically, day to day, this will be the best/most practical option. A stout, reliable drive-train with robust brakes.

I think this car is for people with money who just want a turn-key package out the box - similar to how something like the Z/28 or GT3 would be for track days, except for the drag strip.

Man, totally disagree. If he has a schtick, it’s “hyper honest dude.” I wasn’t a huge fan of him till I heard his take on dog ownership - he just seems like a really nice guy.
