Okay, that's it. We need a Eurovision Best-of battle, similar to the Beat-off battle.

Back in Highschool my friends and I would meet up on the Eurovision night and just get totally wasted watching the whole thing. I nearly died of laughter when I saw their "performance".
So, potential Roadkill episode?
Are you familiar with the Eurovision song contest?
The same in Europe. Mercedes has the friendliest staff here and never minded me as a child climbing in and out of their cars and taking every poster/brochure I could find.
They did, but he had engine issues and didn't finish the day.
The test was conducted by Sport Auto, and their head drivers are Horst von Sauerma or Christian Gebhardt, Nordschleife experts who raced there quite a lot. Here's a lap Gebhardt did in a Mini:
There's one CGT on cars.com. The spread between rare exotic prices in the western countries usually is very small, so I think the real world price of one will be in the 1 Million $ range. On the other hand, Bonhams auctioned one on 7/13 for 370k, so there's that. That was pre-Walker and pre 918 deliveries though.
Thanks to the 918, a whole fucking lot. Expect to pay more than 1 Million € for a good example: http://suchen.mobile.de/auto/porsche-c…
That'll buy you a third of a Carrera GT.
The Aventadors has 90hp more but also weighs what, 4000 pounds? It'll be a close one.
I saw earlier today that you shared this article on your FB and was looking forward to the discussion.
That's 8 seconds faster than a Schnitzer-modified, 677hp BMW M6 Gran Coupe.
WEC will have a maximum of 36 permanent starters. That leaves 20 spots or more open - Le Mans is going to expand its pitlane to allow more cars. I'm sure that there'd be a spot for a Glickenhaus LMP1.
That... it looks too Miataish for my taste, and I've seen those frontlights somewhere else...
I personally like it, but it's not the best hypothetical Fiat render ever.
Autobild once did a render of a retro 124 Spider:
Holy cow you're right. Porsche reportedly delayed their 991 based GT3-R till 2016, and the R8 will be joined by the BMW M6 and the Mercedes AMG GT.
BMW also bragged about RWD when they introduced the 1-series and are now quietly walking away from that.
It's funny that BMW advertises with the help of a Formula Drift driver or even uses a bunch of them for drifty 2-series ads. When Mike Essa was about to win the Formula Drift championships in 2013, they sent him a letter to remove all logos from his E46 chassis, arguing that drifting isn't representing their brand…
