Go ahead and enjoy this technician video on ‘how to open the hood on an i8' and other horrid operations. Note the number of times they say ‘do something x way or you will break it’. The entire car is built like this. Pull on the emergency door handles wrong and they break. Open the hood wrong and you fuck the paint.
It looks like it’s giving birth to a 997, which coincidentally you could have bought instead for the same money (and would probably be a better move)
I love the wheels; not only do I think they fit this car perfectly, but they’re kind of a throwback. Wondering if the MPH vs. KPH thing had to do with when it was brought over. Either way, it looks to be in good shape...I’d drive it!
Call me superficial, but that shiny red paint looks great, as does the interior (which is as big or bigger as selling paint than the paint, interiors are expensive to sometimes near impossible to fix because of parts availability and cost) assuming it runs well easy nice price.
Cautious NP. MPH vs KPH may be a good thing to check on and not mad about the wheels at all.
Anytime we’re asked NP/ND on a car more than 25 years old, it must meet a specific requirements. It either must have great utility for the buck (a good truck in great condition, nice Saturday top-down cruiser, etc.) or ostensibly peaks on the “rule of cool” gage. For under $7,000, this is peak rule of cool. Nice Price.
It also looks like ass too.
Yikes!
A convicted felon / adjudicated rapist / 6-time-bankupt ‘businessman’ / seditionist / early-stage-dementia-patient / etc. has some thoughts...
Oh, great, so Rivian is the new Tesla. All warts, no lotion.
Yep. Also, he clearly has no clue how tariffs work. Not that he cares. His tariff plan, if actually enacted, would be catastrophic, but it doesn’t even crack the top 20 of terrible things coming with another Trump presidency.
tRump is a nazi loving POS. Nothing he says about cars or anything else really matters. FUCK him and his idiot deplorables.
This is standard industry practice. Every new car review you’ve read happens this way, only we disclose it up front.
In my experience the only journalist I’ve seen on a press trip who paid for airfare and lodging was WSJ. We don’t have WSJ money, so we accept Audi’s invitation and disclose it up front.
I didn’t love…
so lazy. so, so lazy.
The new Z may be little more than a re-skin of the 370, but it’s a cool re-skin, and at $10,000 less than a Supra, it should have been a hit. Problem is, once greedy dealers got to work on the markups, it was no longer cheaper than a Supra, and at that point there was literally zero reason to buy one. Dealers are…
Its a pretty neat little package, and for a camper version, the price is not bad at all! NP!!
(Yes, I know this is humorous, but the Union Jack isn’t actually symmetrical...)
I’d argue this is far worse.
“This is the most disgusting abuse of a flag that I see regularly in the Olympics. Draping the flag (a real flag, not a red,white and blue image) on gross, sweaty shoulders is profoundly disrespectful and needs to stop.”
