One more rule: NO 996’s!!!!!!!!!

This is the kind of logic that flushes America down the toilet. It’s not theoretical that a manufacturer of any product (cars, baby food, etc) will gladly cut corners to increase profits even if cutting that corner means contributing to consumer death or injury. We know it isn’t theoretical because it happens on a…

It doesn’t kill me one bit. At the end of the day you need to hit offending automakers where it hurts which happens to be the bottom line. Shareholders who were happy to ignore recalls or didn’t complain about shoddy build quality because profits were soaring will now raise those complaints when profits are lost due…

The trick is that for many people this is the ideal area (including me) and going anywhere else is really settling for something else. My wife and I are considering a move to Portland or Seattle if the either the housing market or our salaries don’t improve within the next few years so we can buy a house before having…

It’s nice in the sense that the area is beautiful, plenty to do, weather is great and I’m fond of the mixed cultural environment (I grew up in the area, not a transplant). It’s not great in the sense that housing is brutally expensive so even though my wife and I (in our late 20’s) make decent money there is no way we…

Cali indeed (SF Peninsula). I did 3 decent coats on each wheel and it was ridiculously durable. I half expected it to be perferated with rocks a few months in but it just kept trucking along for over a year until I removed them. The wheel finish underneath was pristine too.

I think it has a lot of odd angles. Rear shots look odd from many angles due to the upward sloping rear end and some front angles are odd too (see attached). The car almost looks like an unfinished mold that is slowly melting in the heat (like a cheap hot wheels replica). I find the styling of the second generation…

The car looks great in that particular shot but overall I don’t like the wheels or the car to be frank. The first generation of Viper are oddly styled and look even worse years later. I do like the 2nd generation cars quite a bit though!

That’s actually false. I’m not into dipping these days but I tried it years ago to dip my OEM 19’s black and the damn thing stayed black until I finally peeled it over a year later. I couldn’t believe how durable it is.

I’ve never seen plastidip reflect light as sharply as traditional paint. It always has a diffused look that is reminiscent of a bad paint job (poor wet sanding).

I hate this look. It’s very common these days as an OEM setup and everyday it exists makes me cry a little.

They usually aren’t chrome as the vast majority I’ve seen are polished metal. The particular spoke design you posted is definitely played out but I’m very much in support of black with polished lip in other spoke designs. I wouldn’t do it on a black car though.

It’s not. Both can be a bit much but the Chrome doubly more so.

They may not be distinctive looking enough in the Mclaren line up for some (I’m more than happy with what’s available) but they will sure as hell be distinctive enough compared to anything else on the road. I love the styling because its unique among high performance cars but in the best ways possible.

I’d say that’s far off from any Ferrari. It sounds good just nothing like a Ferrari.

In theory with a high enough resolution scanner you can probably recontruct a digital copy of the disc and play it back in software.

That thing is pretty dope.

I’d say thats at least a notch or two above the quality normally expected of Gawker Media sites.

He’s not joking. The kind of people who buy Bugatti’s don’t give two fucks about panties because they’re still pulling fresh pubic hairs out from betwixt their teeth on the way to the dealer given the hundreds of millions of dollars they have.

Shouldn’t that be “just like the i8 a 911” for some semblance of cleverness?
