You’ve just described most of the current hypercar crop. They all have identical performance unless you’re an F1 driver on a track in which case you can measure the difference in fractions of a second.

Autoblog and carscoops come to mind. I visit Jalopnik reluctantly these days knowing it’s mostly the woke take on cars.
I feel like you’ve missed the mark in framing Ferrari moving to electric propulsion as an environmental move. It’s 100% a performance move. Ferrari sees the EV hypercars on the horizon and knows it can’t compete with internal combustion. Ferrari makes so few cars and they are driven so little that the environmental…
Thanks for reminding me why I only rarely check out Jalopnik any more. It’s the Woke auto news website.
Well I guess you gotta write about something when Tesla is doing too well to dunk on.
The dealership lobby in this country is powerful and in bed with local and state governments in that they feed taxes into their coffers in exchange for preservation of monopolistic laws that prevent moving beyond a 19th century business model.
Oh good, a hot take from Jamie Kitman. The guy who single handedly caused a mass defection of subscribers from Automobile Magazine, myself included, helped put that formerly great magazine out of business. I’m sure it seemed like a great idea at the time to hire a guy who loathes automobiles to write for an automobile…
Most public bus departments have a rule against bus operators driving in reverse. I’m sure NYC is no different. Obviously in this case an exception should have been made but I can see why neither wanted to.
Prediction: despite Jalopnik’s typical hysterical interpretation (for a car blog Jalopnik seems very conflicted about actually liking automobiles) , these trucks that don’t have cylinder deactivation will sell for a small premium on the used market.
A 26 year old cheap Ferrari, what could possibly go wrong.
It’s only a good deal if you look at the purchase price. At least in California a salvage title means you won’t be able to sell it for more than pocket change. Might as well buy a clean title because the cost of ownership will be the same because it will be worth something when you’re done with it.
It’s not a subcompact, it’s not $60k, and the cost of a 14-50 dryer plug installation in your garage will range from $200-500 depending on where you live and distance from the fuse box.
If you were old enough you would know that it is and has been for decades very common for auto manufacturers to have off-books options for ordering vehicles. Heck the whole muscle car era was based in this type of practice, where a certain engine in a certain body could only be ordered through a certain dealer or…
The problem I have with JDP dependability survey is it continues to allow infotainment dissatisfaction as a key indicator of “reliability”. In fact as pointed out it is the most common “reliability” complaint in the survey. The reality is at least half the “reliability” issues in this regard are issues with phone…
Most people would prefer a death row inmate as a neighbor over a lawyer any day.
The vast majority of police are liars, you say? And you’re a defense attorney, huh. My eyes are stuck in the rolling position.
How long before Russia’s troll army jumps on this article and starts posting comments about how Russia is great.
Lexus can trace their problems back to listening to the automotive press tell them their cars were boring. Enter the current terrible Lexus design. Throw in an infotainment system that’s among the worst in the industry, sales drop explained.
Can we discuss how this woman has been driving around WITH NO WORKING BRAKE LIGHTS? That is highly irresponsible and puts her and everyone around her in danger.
Ferrari puts turn signal on steering wheel, automotive press line up to fawn and caress.
