I need to see this concept with different wheels. I see the Mission E Concept and keep thinking of these.

The overall effect of this Tiguan R reminds me strongly of the Forester STI
I can agree that the F-Type’s “cackle & pop” is a little over the top, but honestly I think overall the effect adds to the experience rather than becoming distracting. For an example, when I was in a new S3, the little gurgle it made between the shifts helped make the motor feel more substantial to me. Even though…
*ahem*
I’m glad I went back to insert the vague “one of the”. I don’t know as much about domestics and had a sneaking suspicion if anyone could hang onto a motor longer than Jag’s straight-6, it’d be the Big Three. I wonder if a more knowledgeable person would know what the longest running/most used straight-6 really is. My…
“even some old Astons are beloved for the use of I6s.”
“Get ready to see a lot of these on the road”
I can feel for H1 owners because it’s an automotive icon. To a few people, it’s a dream car. Wouldn’t you feel sympathetic if someone had a hard time enjoying their Countach because of problems/costs? Well, this is basically an exotic of the truck world. Now maybe some of their owners are assholes, but doesn’t that…
“but I’m shocked they haven’t upgraded the engine at all.”
Completely agree. With the older models, as long as you avoid the bright colors (white, red, yellow, etc.) the headlights aren’t so bad. I think the bezels added to the projectors on the One to One versions help it look a lot better.
Now playing
No love for Kavinsky’s Testarossa? The music is pretty much made for night driving, the Ferrari is a character in all of the videos, and the car actually comes back to life in one of the videos. I mean, save for “It Was A Good Day”, how many of these songs actually make you picture a specific vehicle when listening to…
Nope! Save for a few models, I prefer most Ferraris in blue. Whether it be loud and vibrant:
Actually, come to think of it, I don’t think I’ve ever come across a red 612. They’re almost always some variation of silver, grey, blue or black. Not that I’m complaining though, a red 612 is a lot of red.
Imagine if these test mules had lives after their R&D duties were finished...
“I didnt know they were into the crossover game.”
I mean, credit where credit’s due; based on CR’s experiences, Tesla’s customer service seems to be really great and the ability to update/fix the car wirelessly is awesome. But my point was, the Model S clearly had some issues, so it has no right to be given a “perfect” score.

Making a “worst retro cars” list with a PT and you choose this image? This is far too flattering and contemporary looking, especially when the company was churning out these hot messes.
