This reeks of NSX delays. By the time the Supra comes to market, the Mustang will cost 49¢, go 400 mph and be powered by cold fusion. It will also be in a buy here pay here used car lot.

Dear New Supra,

It’s about brand identity and sales. The rear visibility and semi-usable rear seats make it mostly practical, which is why they sell so damn many of them.

I wished Corvette would stick to this. The mid-front Corvette already has the best weight bias possible. I really wished they’d stick to their style. Stepping up the Camaro big time lately so maybe they’re getting tooled up to push the Vette up into supercab status but still.

I like to think that, in my own head at least, that Porsche engineers take pride in making a not-so-ideal layout work so well. It’s never gotten worse since the 356, only better.

Maybe it’s still rear-engined because Porsche knows the importance of having a brand identity.

I skimmed through the video and I only saw arguments for RR vs. FR without bringing up MR. If even Porsche’s racing team admits that it needs to go MR to be competitive at the highest levels, and considering how the road-going 911 has been going as close to MR as possible without actually tipping over the line, what…

I’m a Jeep fan but I have to say, I agree with the Fish Guy. It’s incredibly disrespectful to the environment and an ad like that really encourages bad behavior on the part of Jeep owners. Hunters and fishermen, who make up a large segment of the Jeep market, are (or should be) great stewards of the environment. Jeep…

Clearly this was a marketing stunt by Audi - but he only got halfway to making the Audi rings on the pavement. His teammate was supposed to go out to make the other two.

After driving through LA gridlock in my manual Jetta, I get it. It’s the constant full depress, full release, full depress, full release, etc., etc., etc., not necessarily which foot is seeing more usage. With the throttle it’s more just a constant feathering as opposed to going full extension countless times. And…

you don’t need 10 gears you just need more gear sticks.

Check out how an 18 speed works. Retired OTR driver. It’s interesting.

I’ve never driven a semi-truck, but don’t those transmissions typically have ten or more gears? The H-pattern, if I’m understanding it right, is only half as wide as you’d think, with a switch on the shifter knob to change from high to low range. So it’s actually not as crazy an idea as you think.

After a day of driving in gridlock.

I bet that list is very ... Germanic.

So they are wearing balaclavas when they pose as ATM technicians?

Wait, is that for real? I mean...what?

I think the engineer was trying to get rid of you as quick as possible. A good vacuum gauge( the one in the mustang might be junk, don’t know), is actually very effective way to diagnose the condition of your engine. Here is a quick search of just one of many videos that show what a vacuum gauge can tell you. (edit:…

Oil flavor would have been useful on my Corvair. The smell is always sweetest right before you foul a plug.
