Pre Australian airbag requirements.

That roof/b-pillar buckling is hypnotizing. Another practical reason that just about every sedan went from “three boxes” to “one arched box” over the years (in addition to aero and styling demands)

“They don’t make ‘em like they used” - Correct: Modern cars aren’t deathtraps and can also turn and stop.

Here are a few reasons that every car enthusiast will care about. I don’t like telling people they are flat out wrong, I just don’t like being that much of a dick, but you’re wrong and need a history lesson if you think k only Ford Faithful will be interested.

Undoubtedly. This car was designed solely to win, and produce enough to meet the homologation requirements. It follows in the history of the GT40 (not the Ford GT).

Dont know why people still feel this way:“This is still a Ford and will be viewed as such by not only competing companies, but by interested buyers.”

200 grand should have been tops.

It’s not absurd at all from Ford, because they have twice in Automotive history created a product that bested the best. and if a badge is stopping you from paying what a car is worth.. well then, it’s not for you.

V8s are wonderful, but I say this V6 has proven itself.

No they wouldn’t have. You can’t have an overall win with a GT car. You obviously don’t understand how Le Mans works nowadays.

It was a complete waiver, predicated on the FIA being convinced that they were in fact gearing up to produce the quantity of cars they promised (instead of the GT1 cars where OEMs only built 2 of the required 25).

They got all the other manufacturers in GTE-Pro to agree to a homologation waiver for this and last season.

I would do nasty bedroom stuff for that car.

Nothing gets eyeballs like deadly everyday items.

The “good” news for most of us is that auto loans are very rarely securitized, at least compared to mortgages. Nobody ever mistakenly believed in cars as a long-term investment upon which we could build an economy. They’ve always been crappy deals, to varying degrees. There’s no hope for appreciation like there is

I doubt I’ll ever understand the appeal of a front solid axle. IFS is better in every way.

It’s not even about excelling at this point. From the sounds of it, it’s a miracle that she hasn’t injured or killed anyone yet. For someone to be so entirely aloof as to their utter lack of driving ability, I’m entirely on board with the government taking away her license permanently. And I’m one of those guys that
