The race was fine, but was it worth spending millions of dollars to truck in yachts to “float” on the marina? Was it worth the thousands of dollars fans spent to be there? Was it worth pouring thousands into VIP events and experiences? Honestly, not really.

Agree about the Accord. I really liked the last one, and this newest design is very bland.

Rest of the world still gets a Golf.

Whether the rest of the world thinks of us as glamorous, we certainly think it of ourselves.

At the Miami GP, every section of grandstand has giant displays on the opposite side of the track showing the broadcast so you can see what’s going on. Of course, it’s not the same as watching on TV, but you’re not oblivious to what’s going on elsewhere.

To be sure, I know nothing about the operating costs of a grand prix.

Like many Americans, I’m new to F1. Unlike most, it wasn’t DTS that got me in, but the Miami Grand Prix itself. I was born, raised, and live in Miami, so the idea of the highest level of motorsports coming to my home was exciting. That’s what got me watching at the end of the 2021 season. I only watched DTS later to…

“we’re betting that’s a European horsepower rating”

Looks fantastic!

Anyone else getting a little tired of these misleading headlines? No reasonable car enthusiast (or buyer, for that matter) would include an accessory dog ramp in the definition of “fully loaded.” But “$67k Mazda!” sure makes for an attractive click.

The lack of low-end torque in the S2000 (I’ve had one for 13 years) is not a bug, it’s a feature. It encourages you to keep the revs above 6000 rpm, where God intended.

Is it really that hard to pay for the things you use?

Another thing to consider is the consumption of fuel. Because a jet engine burns jet fuel, it loses that 160,000 kg over the course of a flight, effectively becoming more efficient as it flies. The weight of batteries never leaves the plane.

They have another coming, sized between the Q4 and this model.

You should probably mention that other money-sending services like Venmo and Cashapp also have no protections. Further, even using PayPal and choosing to send to “friends/family” won’t protect you.

My last car purchase was a 2009 M5.

There are a few of us holdouts. All four cars I’ve bought for myself have been manuals. I don’t meant that in a snarky, “I’m better” way. I suppose I just assumed more Jalops did the same.

Is this not an enthusiast website?

Interesting that they hid the headlights in black trim like the latest 7-series and X7.
