Yes. ALL those things do, in fact, distract you from the task of driving. Some are more distracting than others. All tend to be less distracting than operating your phone in any manner.

Combined with retuned suspension, the CS gained mechanical grip, with a corresponding reduction in understeer, and all of the turn-in response of the Comp, despite the taller front sidewalls.

Neutral:

Car and Driver is claiming GM has already announced the auction of the last C7 Vette at the Northeast Barrett Jackson Auction on June 28th.

The reality is, if gamers weren’t, by and large, a group of spineless douche bags, this shit simply wouldn’t happen.

Here’s why this revolutionary vehicle you’ve never heard of

You seem to have neglected to mention the curb weight of 3800lbs though, which was quite portly for the 90s.  Even by today’s standards that’s on the heavy side.

Why? The article does a lot of talking and hand waving, but it doesn’t actually reveal the only numbers that really matter. How much money did insurance companies pay out for men last year, and how much did they pay out for women?  That should then be followed up by how much money did insurance companies charge men…

Whatever it costs, it’s worth it. Cramped in an airplane for 4 hours or cramped in a Toyota Yaris for over 16 hours. Ya, no contest there whatsoever.

Frankly, the term length isn’t nearly as important as this: Unless you absolutely have to, don’t buy a new car until you’ve paid off your current car. Period. Only exception is life changing events that make the current vehicle truly impractical.

calls this split second decision one of the more dangerous encounters on the road.

You’ve failed before you even got started. Once again, the focus is erroneously on the displacement of the engine. Here’s a clue, the physical world doesn’t give a damn how much displacement your engine has. Weight, size, and power are the only things Newton’s Laws care about. Those same laws also don’t give a damn…

Ford only deserves part of the blame here, and frankly not the largest part of it. No, it’s the buying public that has decided it wants large, crappy handling vehicles instead of fun, more agile vehicles.

And Nintendo’s views aren’t even remotely biased.

For some 25+ years now I’ve been driving the same. Start the car, give it 5-10 seconds of idling to get oil flowing to all parts of the engine, and then drive easy for the first few minutes or so. That’s pretty much the way I drive year round, when it’s 95º and when it’s -15º. None of my vehicles have shown any…

For those who have missed out on this cultural phenomenon

I was under the apparently erroneous impression that we were comparing models with similar Horsepower. The 455hp Camaro gets similar mileage as the M4. The ZL1, with over 40% more hp, gets 25% less mileage.

hyperbole in a blog/article title == click bait.

You don’t massage an engine for a 50% increase in power. That’s a pretty extensive build, far beyond anything that could qualify as ‘massaging’.

Have you considered that the M4 gets ~25% better fuel economy?
