No one is defending it that hard, we’re just countering your praise of the 86 with our experiences and considerations. Your opinion of the 86 is fine, but you were pretty dismissive of the Mustangs in ways that, in my experience having owned both an Ecoboost and a GT, aren’t really true.

>better in every way
>Front wheel drive
Lol, nah.

86/BRZ/FRSs aren’t? I guess it depends where you live...I feel like I see just as many twins as Mustangs in a typical week.

That’s not really all that fair...the Mustang rewards the driver that revs the piss out of it because it has a shitload more power. The current Mustang chassis, while certainly not as nimble as an 86, is still rather good at bombing around tight roads.

They aren’t usable for anyone over 5' though...

There are tons of small airports that would support it.

A lot of people have been saying the angular style of the modern era will age poorly, I don’t see it that way yet. Maybe my mind will change in a few years, but the trend has been around for a while. The Gallardo, while softer than a C7, still looks good today and it debuted 15 years ago. When I see many of the C6's…

Anything is fun to autox. We had a member that drove the piss out of his manual G35 sedan, and was pretty surprisingly fast too.

I drove one for 56 seconds on an autocross course and I think about it more than cars I’ve owned for years. It’s a special machine.

The anger around this book feels a lot like the anger the same critics probably have around Big Bang Theory. Some thinly veiled “stop appropriating my geek culture” attitude or something. I don’t really get it.

Doesn’t he end up in the RV with Art3mis by the end? That’s probably what we’re seeing with the new equipment, no? It’s been a while since I read the book, but it’s unsurprisingly probably going to be a pretty different story in the movie. It’s not like the movie can really show Parzival re-enacting War Games line by…

What are people expecting, Dickins?

I can’t be the only person that thinks the font used in this video and inside of Pagani’s cars looks terrible and cheap, right?

As much as I appreciate your enthusiasm, a wind turbine =/= free energy.

What modern lambo isn’t contemporary? Considering the Urus looks very similar to the concept from 5 years ago and still looks “modern”, I don’t see it aging that poorly.

I’m tired of people crying about things for reasons that are made up and childish.

You’re just holding on to such an ignorant viewpoint. Whether or not you feel you *need* these features doesn’t impact other drivers. You might not have patience for it, but it’s not like someone who is relying on BLIS for their blind spots was doing the “right” thing before, so you’re probably better off if they have…

People are asking for features that make cars easier to drive safer. These are not idiot proof, they’re just helpful. It’s leveraging technology to improve safety and ease of operation.

What money? They said the car shown was built with $1mm in crowd-funding and they were looking to generate $2mm. You do not produce a $10,000 car with $3mm. They need a lot more money to even get close to that.

What’s the point of life being fun if there’s no life to live after an accident?
