Maybe you would, but you don’t own a Tesla (you would have said so if you did). Tesla owners specifically purchased an electric car because they wanted an electric car. If they’d wanted a slower, noisier car, they’d have bought an AMG or something in the first place.

Except “going big” in your case requires sacrificing performance and comfort. Sure, you can squeeze P85D-levels of power out of an LS or 2JZ, but that would require lumpy cams, or laggy turbos etc, and the addition of an inefficient transmission. You’d lose the total smoothness, unbeatable, uninterrupted torque curve,…

When you think about it, though - aren’t wheel bearings just a bunch of tiny wheels themselves?

Way to totally jack peoples’ Youtube hits. Really, tho? Compliation videos? Christ, do something original for once. And by that, I don’t mean post about Japanese fuckery. Maybe go out and make your own playthrough videos. But nah, that’d be too self-sufficient. This site’s ethics are lacking.

When you think about it, autonomous cars are great for gearheads. It makes all the idiot drivers on the road faster, yet more predictable. No more stop-and-go, if the latency between cars gets smaller. No more surprise moves that could get anyone killed. Just a fast-moving sea of slalom cones that can be overtaken at…

You know, you could just buy a couple-year-old base WRX or whatever and used the money you saved to get the interior upholstered to whatever spec you wanted. I’ve seen people do crazy stuff, but you can spend as much or as little as your heart desires...

Something tells me that BMW will invest a lot of money into anything they do in order to maintain their brand integrity. They’ll be under lots of scrutiny and they likely are smart enough to overcompensate somewhat in order to prove their mettle in a new market.

It was a terrible car because the only thing it did well was last long. Shit interior, shit drivetrain, shit everything else. I’m sorry, but if you say “yeah they were better with upgrades” and you think that justifies it being a good car, you’re flat-out high. Ancient, plastic, turd. Bye.

I might be biased, but the fact you could get one with a 3.6L VR6 and a 6 speed DSG is pretty friggin cool IMO... show me any other compact car with a powertrain that big and unique, let alone one with a folding glass hardtop

Oh we’re a lot less polite than you’d think, especially once the slush comes... Sometimes the streets turn red from all the murder

I know, I wish I could afford one, too.

As someone who lives in Canada, where it’s currently dark at 7pm and already 50 degrees Fahrenheit, I’d like to ask you to kindly fuck right off.

I wonder what a real government agent would drive, if he/she needed something fast. It would have to be cheap - none of this hand-stitched leather nonsense; the taxpayers would never go for that. It would have to blend into any sort of environment, rich or poor. What car fits that bill? Could it be a new car, or would…

I love how ads used to include a novel’s worth of copy.

And a useless plastic window where a little change drawer should be

And steering wheel controls from a 2010 Chevy Equinox

I wonder if it will still have panel gaps visible from space

Does anyone look at that and think it’s not a Dodge? I bet my mom would even consider it a Dodge. I bet my mom’s hairdresser would consider it a Dodge.

These branding excercises are so useless.

Why? Because everyone is rich, white, hot, and popular. I dunno why that’s such a foreign concept. Watch an episode of Scream Queens and you’ll see. The best part? These people don’t give two farts about the idea of inclusivity, because they’re better than you and if you don’t like it you don’t matter.
