This was in NFS2, probably the best handling car in the game. Sounded bad but man was it agile.

It was probably a lot like an 80s F1 engine. The ICE bit is really just a gas generator for a ginormous turbine that generates most of the power. An I4 is fine for that.

How much do you think the new E63 AMG S sedan is going to depreciate by the end of 2018? I’ll be in the market for one (or something like it) around Oct and would prefer to see somebody else take the depreciation hit.

I flew coach to Dallas to pick up my Porsche and drive it back to Houston.

ATL is lucky LaGuardia exists. If it wasn’t for that they’d be the worst airport I’ve ever been to.

He’s an accomplished marketer who’s repackaged himself into some sort of “tech visionary” because he knows the entire valuation of his companies rely on his public image. That’s why he doesn’t welcome any real scrutiny (let alone criticism). He has more in common with another accomplished huckster who self promoted…

Friday was insane. I was in Birmingham to do the Porsche masters course and they had to cancel day 2 because of ~6 inches of snow. I’ll be back in the spring but on some levels I’m glad they held off. The idea of doing the 110 mph blind uphill right sweeper at barber with snow on the track in a GT3RS rocking Cup 2s…

Will need better pictures to say for sure but it sure looks like Liberty Walk got their hands on a 720S and also threw in a Pep Boys rear wing into the build. Not quite what I expected.

I don’t get it. Sure its fast in a straight line but its going to be very heavy and judging by their other cars, can’t be fast for more than a few minutes (you’re definitely not doing lapping sessions in this thing). It sounds like crap (nothing). As a sports car its interesting but doesn’t do much for me. Its fast…

Skip Bayless redefines offensive so well its kinda pointless to run a poll. Did you guys miss him deliberately. Its UNDISPUTED

Given how solidly blue Houston is and how blue the burbs are trending I don’t think this truck’s owner will have much of an issue.

How do you even do cylinder deactivation in an inline 4? Do you drop to 3 or 2? Surely that means weird NVH/Harmonics the configuration isn’t really designed for.

The F-type is very pretty and the V8 is bloody amazing on the overrun but I disagree that its going to be a future classic. There are too many, the residuals are appaling, the interiors are average and the performance is at best on par with the competition. The only collectible modern Jaguar has been the XJ220. The…

I’m sure its going to be mega to drive and the overall design of the body is gorgeous but I really have problems with their color of choice here. This has got to be Chris Harris’ fault. His daily driver is a vomit green current gen M3. Green on orange.... who would ever pick those!

“That’d be fairly impressive handling on empty ice”

My only question is was this a completely stock, unmodified car? Could anybody with the money buy one, find a long enough road and get the same results? On first glance the in gear acceleration in the video suggests that the gear ratios have been altered to help with top speeds. The thing that makes a Chiron (and the…

Most of the “expert” suggestions are good apart from the Genesis (too boring) and the minivan (Patrick George needs professional help). I’d add to the suggestions with a 2011 E63 AMG. 2011 is the last and best use of the legendary 6.2 V8 with all the head bolt issues that plagued earlier model years completely sorted…

Fanbois who think this fakeass idiot is the some sort of genius visionary instead of an accomplished huckster who’s made billions selling utopian vaporware. Tesla’s main product is its stock, not its cars. Its all built on a mirage of free beer next century willingly backed by gullible tech journalists and “tech…

You can blame the market for the SUVs. If the US market were more rational everybody would buy the infinitely superior wagons BMW makes. The 7er has always been a cushy luxobarge. I’ve driven the F10 5 series on track and its a much more capable car than you give it credit for. Their proper cars are still mostly RWD,…

Well said but the Panamera is nearly 1.5x the equivalent BMW or Mercedes. It is significantly more money.
