BBC America Sundays at 7pm central. Yes its BBC America so there are 30 minutes of ads for 1 hour of TV but its easily still the best car show around. There was some confusion because they aired Ep 1 6 days late on a Saturday but since then all episodes air same day as they do in the UK. If you’re trying to get caught…

The best part by far is when he gets to the Mansory stand. The videos are worth watching for that reaction alone.

That’s false. Their CEO is a clueless idiot who’s only move is to change carmakers over from one alphanumeric naming scheme to another. Younger millenials don’t generally have the means to buy sports sedans. Those that do are mostly into lame ass sh*t like unnecessary smartphone upgrades or crypto-ponzi schemes. The…

No entirely surprising if true. I grew up watching these three on the BBC and while I was very excited for the Grand Tour when it first came out, my interest in the show cratered quickly. It felt important when Chris Evans was doing his best to kill Top Gear but now that Top Gear is back and (imho) as good as its ever…

If its the S55 from the M3/4 the aftermarket already has mods that take it well into the 800+ hp range. Hopefully they use a better stock exhaust setup than BMW do though. One thing that’s surprising is the lack of a manual at least as an option - BMW already offer a 6MT on the same engine in the M3/4. They could…

New Top Gear is brilliant. There’s been clear growth between season 24 and season 25 and it shows. The humor’s a lot sharper and the three have settled into their characters. Chain car racing was honestly the funniest the show’s been since the Reliant Robin road test. This is the best Top Gear’s been in over a decade,…

Wtf was that!!! LeBron was and is the single greatest athlete to play any sport in my lifetime.

Agreed on the need for a base of citizens trained to use weapons. Disagree on the NRA being even slightly important to that. The NRA is a sleazy political lobbying organization that exists mostly to put money in the pockets of gun manufacturers by stoking fear and opening new markets for their products as well as by…

With Alonso’s luck Honda will take a big step forward this year in the toro Rosso and Red Bull will contend for the championship next year with a Honda engine in it.

Exactly - the 911's real secret weapon are those unusable to adult rear seats. I never though much of them and really wished I’d taken the option to delete them until I went to my first PCA meet and saw 50% of the 911s present with child seats in the back. It allows the 911 to be the only real sports car for families…

As much as I admire Mr Nissan for his willingness to fight, I can’t help but feel he would have done a lot better to negotiate a deal on the domain. Initially, it sounded like Nissan was definitely willing to pay money for his domain and while it might have been ridiculously lowballed, a half competent lawyer would…

The interior sure does look nice but my experience with Peugeot rentals in Europe would suggest that its all made of textured plastic (even the wood/metal bits) and will come apart the first time somebody sneezes inside the car.

991.2 GT3 Touring obviously. Even if you overpay by $50k, I think its a slam dunk investment car. The 992 GT3 is going to be turbo only so this is your last chance to buy a NA 4.0 in a 911.

This is one of the most desirable 911 builds I’ve ever seen. I’d still prob get a Singer if I somehow won the lottery but this isn’t far behind at all. My only gripe would be the shifter - they need to replace it with something more substantial, metal and maybe even gated (why not!).

Irsay has a lot of 7-9 nights. Good fit.

The colts twitter account is pure gold for today.

Many manufacturers are able to control lag to an extent that makes it almost unnoticeable in modern engines. Both Porsche’s new 3.0 TT flat 6 and BMWs inline 6 M engines have a mode where the engine continues to pump off throttle to keep the turbos spun up with the wastegates open. It’s not quite as good as a proper…

I’ve been in a Factory Five Cobra replicar that my buddy put together. Yes its shoddy but because its has great big V8 up front the lack of build quality doesn’t matter much.

Every Tesla I’ve ever been in or driven has had kit car levels of build quality. They simply just do not sound, feel or seem as solid as normal mass produced cars are these days. Most of the materials are actually pretty good but the way they’re put together just feels third rate. Some of it is simply the fact that…

This. I’ve driven Porsche’s with regular steel brakes all day on track with minimal fade and no overheating. This was back to back 45 min sessions with short breaks in between and a 30 min lunch break between groups of sessions on a fast track with 3 max braking zones. I don’t mind a little bit of brake squeal when…
