I’ve seen one Hellcat Redeye and one demon. The only demon I saw was at a Never Lift Half Mile Racing event and it left on a flatbed. The Redeye was at a local cars and coffee. Garage queens probably, but super rare in my area (probably due to the markup).

This. The ugly, expensive to maintain, horribly-named, MP4-12C. I want to say NSX, but I know 20 years from now people will appreciate it and buy them cheap like the 1st & 2nd GEN cars.

Watched a video explaining it today. GM claims that the extra weight of the 4WD system causes the 4x4 version to be tested in “another class of truck” which increases the rolling resistance of the EPA’s test. If that is true, it makes sense that the 4x4's get down rated.

If you are willing to deal with the Florida man or Oklahoma locals...

Diminished value claim on the Veyron maybe more than the physical damage. The CRV driver has a lot to lose here.

Absolutely for some cars, don’t care for others. I’ve had a couple which I wanted the car to go to the right person. I had a couple appreciating classics (91 Honda CRX and 93 Acura NSX) that I wanted to go to the right person. The CRX ended up being shipped to Indiana from SOCAL and I had a gentlemen cash in a part of…

CRX. Lightweight, easy to find engine swaps, easy to work on, and it's something different enough.

Take advantage of every situation you get. When I was tracking heavily one of my instructors was a former IMSA driver. He took my car around the track with me shotgun to show me what the car can do and then did lead-follow laps with him in his 1st Gen Boxster. I improved heavily in those two days.

Great post! I can’t agree with you more, especially about the customer base a new car is designed for. Many “enthusiasts” hate one the modern cars when in actuality they will be a buyer of the criticized car only in a pre-owned capacity (this includes myself at the moment). The new sports and supercar buyer is a very…

I’ll support any car manufacturer who builds the spiritual successor to the Toyota MR2. An affordable mid-engine car would bring the fear of snap oversteer to the masses!

I am with you that this MKV Supra’s price point being spot on for the average joe. I think people just forget exactly how expensive the 1GEN NSX and MK4 Supra Turbo actually were when they were discontinued in the US. The used market allowed them to become attainable (until recently), therefore more of the average joe…

To me though, cars like this and the NSX were not attainable for the average person when they were being sold. After inflation, the NSX/Supra TT/300 ZX/3000 GT VR4/RX7 were equivalent to a fairly well optioned Corvette or Porsche Cayman/Boxster. Granted, the new NSX went full out...but it’s a mini Porsche 918. The…

Definitely the last ditch effort on the last corner in every race.

These engines in classic MOPARS will be a thing at SEMA. The restomod community will love making Hemi “Hellaphant” Chargers and Cudas out of these. I approve.

It was smart for them to move and I agree with you. I subscribed instantly for all the motortrend shows and after they added everything else it’s a slam dunk. With the next Top Gear America being developed by motortrend, it will definitely become money well spent. Key to motortrend is the personalities they have…

As long as it comes in brown.

I get way too many thumbs up in my 1991 Honda CRX. Cheap classics are the next thing.

Adding a daily driver to the current garage. Need something reliable other than a Chevrolet SS Sedan that is currently getting a forged engine and a 1993 Acura NSX. Figure...a B18C1 swapped Honda CRX HF would hit the spot!

I’m doing it right now. Had my car shipped from Hawaii to my parents house in Texas so I can road trip it to where I am moving next. Decided to open up the supercharged LS3 at a local drag strip for the first time. Made one pass and the engine started ticking like a failed lifter. Opened up the car, 2 piston rings…

Sorry, can’t hear you in my new office.
