I’ve thought about this too, and I decided that weight counts for handling as well as acceleration, so it should be considered twice. LB^2/HP is the metric we want, lower is better.

You’re thinking of the 996 Turbo

But matter-antimatter reactions do!

Supercharged AND turbocharged. Even if it is fairly reliable, maintenance is going to require crazy high shop hours. But who are we kidding, it won’t be very reliable.

Seriously. Innovation requires intelligence, and intelligence is a four letter word now.

I think you are wrong about the price being due to the new model. This was a hero car for kids born in the late-70's to 80's, and those kids now have the money to buy their old dreams. The NSX is the pinnacle of the 90's Japanese sports car scene, and the demographic that loves them is reaching their prime earning…

I’ve never seen it from this angle before. It is glorious.

The US and UK generally have near-identical numerical prices, then swap the pound and dollar symbols. Even $43k would be on the high end I think.

I need to rebuild the bottom end of the motor in the 944 Turbo S I bought last summer. It needed the work when I bought it, and I haven’t touched the thing since August. I finally got started tearing it down yesterday.

They’ll still have to retool the Mexico plant since they aren’t building a new one.

Wow. We found the hyper-sensitive Patriots fan.

S7 doesn’t explode. Note7 on the other hand...

I know these are sporty because they share some interior parts with the Porsche 924 and 944. NP?

Drive around Connecticut some. Rich people love old Wagoneers, a new one would play on that popularity.

I know, that is definitely odd. My guess is that it might just be for the sake of hype. If it ran on normal fuels it would just be a hybrid, which isn’t as exciting as it used to be. Wouldn’t be surprised if the turbine gets swapped for diesel right before it starts shipping.

It isn’t a fuel-cell, they are burning the hydrogen in a turbine.

Driving is generally much easier on motion sickness than riding along, so just because you have issues with park rides doesn’t mean driving will necessarily be a problem. Try out some karting and autocross for a lower cost test of if you can handle tracking or not.

You got motion sickness while driving? Can you normally handle go-karts?

PCA requires an inspection within 2 weeks of every event. Gets pretty annoying, but you don’t have many mechanical issues cutting into everyone’s track time either.

Yeah, I’m considering it, but its a good amount of cash for something I will likely never need to do again if I do it right. Anything I don’t do while I have the bottom end apart would require pulling the motor anyway, which comes out the top okay.
