Agreed, Jason. There is something more visceral about chasing speed in a lower hp car. My current car is 330hp, but I miss my last with 205ish. I could push more with it than I can now. If I push all the way through just second gear now, I’m risking a ticket.

If you forgive the stupid ground effects kit and “art,” I think it looks an awful lot like a mid-90s Pontiac.Of course that means it looks like a pontiac from early-90s through the demise of the brand.

Based on the lights or reflectors underneath the tail lights (look like on/in the bumper), it can’t be a recent Honda as recent Hondas don’t have anything like that in that area (bumper below tail lights).

I logged in to star and reply to this 2yr old, grayed comment. I eat that stuff by the box when I can get it, which is basically never at this point.

So, to be clear, you took everything that TheOtherBoleynGirl said—in response to your query mind you, and told her that she was either overthinking or wrong or that her concerns were useless because other people are stupid. I’m paraphrasing but that’s the gist, as I saw it. Way to be an ally.

I’m not trying to justify anything. I’m saying that if they were to build a coupe with a fixed roof, something I would like to see, added rigidity would come along with it. Analysis isn’t necessary, it is a fact.

All of that is true. But as the Miata is not a carbon-tubbed hypercar, adding a fixed roof will add stiffness (torsional rigidity) to the chassis, and that’s rarely a bad thing.

I tend to disagree. The BMW Z3 was designed entirely as a roadster as well, but when the coupe came out it was the stiffest car they made. Having owned one, I can say it felt extremely solid and non-bendy. I haven’t driven an ND (only an NA and NC) but a more rigid chassis in a small sports coupe is rarely bad.

Here’s a better, less sketchy, and original source link.

While I am no supporter of FF, this was noted as being 5yrs in the works. So it’s not as if Rimac didn’t have their own delay between initial announcement and “production release.”

Just look at the interior on the vette. Yes, it costs less, but when the seat leather has waves in it...

never thought I’d need more reasons to hate ESPN.

They misspelled Crikey.

Why do you think BMW didn’t give the M2 a real M eninge? Would you link it to the continued hamstringing of anything that might threaten M3 (now M4) sales?

Normally spelling stuff doesn’t matter, but just for your future.. it is “reneged.” Present tense is “renege.”

Obligatory: too many cooks.

That’s a great story, and depending on how old the valet was I don’t necessarily blame him/her, but I’d rather be a human and lose my job than worry about my boss’s liability.

...but the rise of the internet and society’s progressive swing left them an underserved market.

“When someone uses the word “optics” to mean appearance, it’s best to maximize your temporal utility by leveraging the geo-spatial functionality of your feet.”

While I hate that the following has happened, “literally” now also means “figuratively.” So if your only complaint is that SWCR used “literally” when he/she should have used “figuratively,” then you have no complaint. (..aside from, perhaps, the abysmal state of the English language.)
