It was stock, it had some options from the normal catalog. That's like saying a car with upgraded leather isn't stock anymore. What about the Turbo S, essential a bundle of upgrades, and the R8 Plus, a whole facelift with a new gearbox, are they stock?

Just to add some test numbers: SportAuto took the SLS around the 'Ring in 7:40. The R8 V10 Plus was 5 seconds slower, a 997 Turbo S was 4 seconds slower.

Bullshit. The C63 Wagon went equally fast from 0-60 than the 5 years newer RS4 despite only having RWD and was seven tenths faster at Hockenheim. And the C63 AMG Coupe was 4 seconds quicker around the 'Ring than the E92 M3.

Visually it's a big improvement. Hopefully they get rid of that dreadful 2014 livery.

Keep WRC and especially R5. R5 is the biggest success in rally racing since Group A - Ford alone sold 100 R5 fiestas. The way to go is limiting WRC's sophisticated AWD and suspension, giving them a bump in power and bringing R-GT up to speed.

I think these are the day running lights, the real headlights are the black-out ones on the outside.

I'll just say it: the new Flying Spur looks ten times better than the Mulsanne with those strange outer headlights in the wrong height.

It looks stunning in person. Almost as breathtaking as a 300 SLR Coupe.

No it's not. If anything it would be Count Albrecht of Goertz. Saying "Count Albrecht Graf von Goertz" is double saying his royal title.

He didn't do much, but he did well: Albrecht Graf von Goertz.

Paul Bracq. Why? Well, let's look at the design icons he created:

Yes, a periscope to be precise.

While it's so much more obscure and awesome, I don't think it's a supercar. More of a movie-prop with two V8s.

Isdera Imperator, a Mercedes based supercar that basically brought the C111 back to life.

Hopefully they can partner with a European team to race it in WEC. That would the true Ferrari/Ford battle come to life.

It's the only Veyron I hypothetically would drive. The rims alone are so worth it:

It's a special bumper made for the FBG par Hèrmes Veyron, the best Veyron they made.

I couldn't possibly care less.

They look like black RS Spyder Design rims.

I fear that the times when a Ferrari could be elegant are long gone. So no new 400.
