I was partial to the Eclipse GS-T as the wing fit the style at the time.

Not one “Pretty sure that’s a lambo dude” comment. I know that a small percentage of the early models had an issue with the frame cracking which is enough to turn me off of them.

Based off of the worst version of the Dakota and maybe possibly uglier, i present the Mitsubishi Raider:

Our coding class had the command _leftturn just do 3 rights, so this tracks.  Carrol the robot will just spin around right 3 times doing a tank turn and boom you have a left turn.

I know someone is going to post the Jeep 4.0 so I’ll go with the Ford 300ci Inline 6. Bullet proof reliable and race winning-

Not a huge fan of the insectoid styling. If they gave it a round headlight and made it more of a UJM retro look like the old CB750 I would be very into it. It has the right power, weight, and seat height for me. As this is Honda I can see them making several versions outside of just a Hornet.

Heat pumps are great, as long as you have a reliable electrical source which California does not have.

As a person who worked on these quite often, no this is not a good price.  These are bad cars.  They are not reliable (fuel pump issues, intake gaskets, cheap interiors, etc.).  They did make a decent amount of power and on paper were pretty competitive against the imports, but the import cars were just so much better…

Good to know, Car & Driver had a long term GT350 that they had to add oil to constantly.  I’ve also read elsewhere about oil consumption issues.

Yes, in fact the name comes from when VW/Audi/Porsche switched from air cooled to water cooled.

Not a single Austin-Healey? If this car could frown, it would.

Does that maintenance include checking the oil at every gas station?  I’ve heard they burn through it at a high rate.

“a 7-speed dual clutch automatic gearbox seems to be holding up rather well. Why wouldn’t they? At the end of the day, it’s a Ford.”

No doubt electric vehicles are heavy. However, I’ve seen a lot of heavy duty trucks with a lot of weight in them do fine on the sand. The lack of SA isn’t just an EV thing, people are dumb. I usually check the tide schedule before I head out and sometimes have to move my vehicle if I’m out for a long day.

Electric Jeeps are the perfect island vehicle. Meant for low speeds, lots of offroading (beach, rocks, etc.) and quiet. Drive one out to the beach, take it back to the beach house (18-25mph speed limit) and plug it in because there is already a 220v plug for a golf cart.

I wonder who was driving the Ferrari? I’m assuming the large difference in track time comes down to driver experience and having a person who has made a carreer out of piloting production cars to their limits such as Ben Collins gives Lucid a bit of an advantage.  That being said the Lucid is certainly a serious…

Proud of you dude.  Welcome to the club!  Also, sweet bike.

Yes, but Tesla’s are sold in China. Meaning that if you ignore Tesla sales in China you are ignoring a huge part of the market share.

This would make the rainbow tide car so much better.  Imagine him coming out then having a GT3 with the rainbow livery.

I know a few people who have had engines put into their Hyundai’s due to oil starvation that would argue otherwise.
