But that was the entire point, in the current climate and culture, you’ll not get those types of people. The system is not rewarding, nor even favorable towards those types, in fact it is rather unfavorable.

Who cares what the pentagon thinks? We haven generals getting caught in hot tub scandals, screwing around with other men’s wives and leaking classified intel, going to work for defense contractors in highly lucrative lobbying positions because back scratching requires reciprocity.

I was more specifically referring to the Gran Tursimo (especially the MC model) rather than the Maserati sedans. Most of the GTs I’ve seen have been semi-reliable, if underwhelming. Or, at the very least, I can say I’ve seen more doctors and dentists actually finish out a track day in a Maserati over an AM, as I’ve…

Look, here’s thing about warming up your vehicle with remote start....

That’s because not too many interested in performance really care about AM. They’re like Maserati in the sense that you get GM Camaro SS performance, but for Ferrari prices.

Sorry, but I just can’t help myself....

Or just make a nuclear battery charger for your phone out of some tritium vials and amorphous solar cells, which will last 10+ years and constantly outputs 4+V. It can be done for a little over $100., and while it seems like a lot, it really isn’t for 10 year charger, albeit a slow one that only outputs a bit over a…

While I understand what you’re getting at, you do understand that anything British, including the Bentley, should never be used in a reliability comparison, right?

I think you left out the “as compared to....” bit.

Maybe they’re trying to capture a bit of the market that focuses on reliable luxury cars? If so, taking queues from a Japanese moniker might help them remake that image in the short term.

Bimotas have always interested me, as I grew up riding back in the days where they were actually competitive.

I do prefer a nice, large displacement V8 with lots and lots of baritone snarl....

But then, you have to wonder how HRC could have possibly known and started blaming Russia before any investigation could even begin into such. She was throwing around that word, “Russia”, with extreme regularity before the CIA, DHS, FBI, or NSA even knew they should be doing an investigation.
