Yeah, I thought all the criticism she got (in dumb internet comments) was purely sexist, and it probably was, but this is a crappy situation to lead your team into. And what an embarrassment that this wasn't handled before the Australian GP.

But it's odd that they seem to be actively seeking them out. Or every SSR trade-in in the Gulf states gets funneled here.

Awesome! When I went in early 2005, the showroom had closed mere months earlier.

This Hyundai dealer (or another dealer that shares its lot) in Houston that seems to have a bizarre stronghold on Chevy SSRs and Plymouth Prowlers. It's like the Island of Misfit Toys for unwarrantable American plastic pseudomuscle from the 00s! Street views from 2011 and 2014:

I'm just glad someone styled it, since Toyota forgot to

Not quite, I think that just shows the back. Up front it had this huge square opening, revealing the F1-like keel of the chassis

Totally. I was playing the 2011 R18 in Gran Truismo 6 and saw the underside and holy shit. It basically has a keel, like an F1 car, with bodywork around it. The floor is mostly open in the front, so from the underside it looked very much like an F1 car. Unexpected!

eh, not really, like Open_season said, the Mercedes hood features are almost like a cylindrical shape pushing through the metal. The BMW just has creases. (Though my first AMG pic didn't really show this very well)

That bonnet has some serious Mercedes envy

I had that thought too. I think part of it is because these photos look very similar to the way Porsche does their images/renders

YES! I did a full weekend HPDE at Cresson when it was raining and 45° out. It was like ice driving. I had 10x more grip (and reached higher speeds maybe?) on the highway driving back to Houston Sunday night.

Wow, that's really helpful info! I'll make sure Stef sees this comment

It's not entirely clear there, but we swapped the corded tire for a slightly used, but still cosmetically okay tire from the spare set. There's a really screwed up camber/toe setting that is accelerating the tire wear just on the front right corner.

ME!

This does exist, but it should be everywhere, yesterday: Using GPS to tell you the speed limit on the road you're on. I saw it most recently on the Hyundai Genesis, and it's a godsend. For a while I thought we'd never see this obviously achievable feature due to legal/liability issues, but now it's here and everyone

Since the tail is just as long as the 675LT, I wonder if this will be called a Longtail as well

Fisker was never a technology company, it was more of a styling and marketing exercise. They used a lot of borrowed GM tech, which isn't necesssrily a bad thing, but they were always going to be beholden to GM to innovate and stay competitive. If Fisker were still in business, I defintely don't think we'd be seeing

The new one is right next to the new McLaren with a longer tail
