In your life right now, you have material things that are as worth relatively as much to you as this car is to Tracy Morgan. You’re saying that if someone accidentally damages one of those things, then the un-dreadful and human thing to do is invite them to participate in a physical altercation? Jesus.

I prefer to think that if I had the resources to buy/maintain a Veyron that I wouldn’t be so put out by a minor accident that I’d want to put a 61 year-old woman in fear of imminent physical harm.

RWD allows it to have attractive proportions, instead of looking like a dustbuster minivan with a sedan trunk granted on the back, like most FWD cars.

For a car in this size class, arguing for more interior room is a bit like Russia and the United States building more nuclear warheads. There’s already more than enough to do the job. 

See, thats literally what the current Camry is. 

I’m not sure arguing against a RWD, 4 door sedan on Jalopnik is the right place to die on that hill.

Its neither here nor there. Making the Crown FWD would not improve it in the slightest. It wouldn’t be any worse, but it wont gain anything of note either. 

I don’t get your point. There are many large RWD cars with less than 200hp, past and present. Base model 5-Series or E-Class for instance. These occupy a similar market niche as the Crown, at least in their home country, which is to say they are ubiquitous in Fleet operations.

Sure new headlights are better than old. But were (are) people really out there running into objects/each other in vehicles with older halogen bulbs? No. And surely a newer base-trim halogen headlamp is brighter than one from 10 years ago, no?

So I’m trying to say that a new car having a “poor” headlight is probably…

Especially those of use who don't want to drive a guest house on wheels and and happen to be at eye level for the headlights of said monstrosities.

How can factory headlights be rated as “inadequate” when their minimum performance is federally regulated?

We’ve all (ok, most of us) been driving for years in the dark with crappy old halogens. Sure nice headlights are good, but the “poor” ratings that some of these new cars are getting are most likely far and away better than most older used cars on the road, not even considering that most have probably yellowing and…

I’m looking at you Acura!

Yes, but how do the oncoming drivers feel about these two headlight options?

The term you are looking for is Sport Saloon.

Naw this is the ONE case where I would want a V6 - Alfa’s, in a Fiata. :-)

They didn’t source “an engine” though, they sourced an entire car. It only shames Toyota if you buy into the in-house engineering of performance vehicles is good for the breed.

Inline-6 = how to properly arrange 6 cylinders.

Thank you for confirming that you have literally no idea what you are talking about (or are a troll.) Either way, good day to you, sir! May whatever heavy car you own toast your tires by Turn 3 ;)

You sound very intelligent. Wait, no, that’s not the right word...
