I guess no wheel-to-wheel racing in the corners for this guy.

Concept cars are automotive-masturbation. Simple as that.

For being so expensive, these are some hideous leather folds.

The Zephyrhills F1 Team doesn't really have a ring to it, does it.

Kinda looks like an interesting retro take on this

I was right! HA

What kind of mileage does that thing even get? I imagine it's pretty low because of the drag from that hideous contraption tacked on the back.

Kat, your posts recently have been wild — keep doing you!

You said "355ci." I envisioned this with a 5.5 liter V8 and got all sorts of happy.

Alternatively this, which I think works much better:

It's really terrible how the most unsustainable forms of motorsport are the best ones. Group B, F1 turbo era, 1990s Le Mans, etc.

I'll define shitty based on a normal person's ability to DD it:

Many of the problems isolated by Chris are obviously not restricted to the automotive journalism industry. I'm currently a writer at the most widely-read college magazine (I won't disclose school or publication for obvious reasons) in the country. It's a salon-style political review magazine with a huge following. We…

The Dakar MINI Countryman is actually a rally BMW X3 with the Countryman body on it.
