A profit EBITDA is not a profit. There’s the negative cash flow related to depreciable/amortizable capital assets... so it’s disingenuous to say “we made money before deducting part of the cost of our PPE”. That’s akin so saying those things don’t have a cost.

Thunderhill local (ish) here - nice to see some love for the West track. But man, it’s like an overblown AX course; narrow, tight, not a lot of room to run, overall a pretty slow track. (but fun!)

huh, it’s a nose-heavy AWD and it doesn’t want to go sideways?  who’da thunk it.

Partly down to geography, partly to a longer history of infrastructure development, and partly because they’re all a little more woke about the whole “climate catching fire” thing than we are here in the U.S.

Same. Rarely do I bother with the lore. Just something about the way the redacting adds to the creepy vibe, especially when you say to yourself, “oh, I know precisely what’s under that redacted section”.

Thanks for the review, sounds like right up our alleys (teenage sons and teenage-acting dad).

Maybe it’s having Tom on hand, or just having common sense, or perhaps it’s the filter I have blocking USA Today because it’s a contentless rag, so take this with a grain of salt.

I looked at building a Type65 years ago, decided to work on my fab skills, and just haven’t gotten back to this idea yet. 35K for a completed one with good parts/pedigree is pretty fair.

Amazing that you’ve never had a car older than you.  Most of mine have been, because all the best cars were made before 1973.

Good point about the depth and refocus time.  Seems to me the HUD in my C6 doesn’t have that issue... but that’s a monochrome projection, might not be practical packaging for side view mirrors.

Same here, frustrating controls and lack of any clear sense of goal or progression, left me sort of bored and irritated.  

Metro, dunebuggy, really anything from the wooden wheel era will get the “hey cool” neurons firing. They’re old, iconic, and rare enough to be noteworthy.

Possibly pendantic, but I think this is a two-door sedan.

Please, someone buy lots of these, like Chrysler 300 lots.  That way I can buy one in 5-10 years after the snags are revealed and I can stomach the price and ownership experience.  I have a Mk6 GTI and a C6Z, so I’m okay with some pain.

Denied?  They won’t sell you the car they’re in the business of manufacturing and selling?

There’s also the fact that it’s a two-seater, not a great choice when you have kids to haul around. So, to sane people, it really only makes sense when the kids are grown and gone.

Now, now... don’t start up with your straight talk.  

Honest question - how many people Heel-Toe with actual heel and actual toe?  I have always done it with the left and right sides of the ball of my foot.

I had two Roadsters in the middle of my Datsun years. Liked the 1600, hated the 2000. Neither are very good cars, and honestly a Miata of any sort is a way better purchase.

I get where you’re coming from, that’s why I rock a 20 year old Miata and a 10 year old Corvette.
