“Complicate, then add more weight.” -Geely

You forgot to mention Zhou. He’s the current Mazepin.

RWD is a preference. Being able to adjust your angle with the throttle is fun.

I think it’s the ability to adjust the angle of attack with the throttle that adds a layer of control in RWD that you don’t really have in FWD. Then add practical matters like how in a performance FWD car, the front tires are doing everything, turning, accelerating, braking, so the tires end up having to be replaced…

FWD is a bit of a deal-breaker I’m afraid.

There isn’t one answer to this question. Even at the time when Cadillac was the “standard of the world” that was primarily for luxury cars. Ferrari or Porsche, then as now, would have been the “standard of the world” for sports cars.

You’re better off in general when getting the best version of an overall cheaper car. Because...

2004 Ferrari Enzo - Rare, exotic, valuable, visceral

If you look nationally you can find a 2018 with like 30-40k miles for just under $60k.

The RC-F has 79.4 cu ft of interior space. The LC 500 has 85.9 cu ft.

Why would you recommend an RC-F when the LC 500 is in the price range? It’s better looking, more exotic, just as practical and reliable, has higher quality finishes, and is way better to drive.

It’s a GT, not a supercar.

I think the Alfa Romeo Pierogi would have been more apt for a number of reasons.

Yeah, but the same money could also get you into one of these that drives even better and has a TON of history and racing pedigree instead...

The other article on Jalopnik’s front page explains how the Model Y can be had now for $30k after rebates. Why would Tesla need a Model 2 when its existing lineup is approaching $25k with all the recent price cuts? We’re one quarter’s delivery miss away from a $25k Model 3 or Model Y.

Imagine how many would sell if they got closer to the $80k price the car had back in 2008. It has the performance today of a C8, so it would make sense to price it similarly. They’ve only marginally updated it over the years, so it’s not like they have huge R&D costs they need to recoup.

That and I always thought it was odd that Nissan never had a CPO program for them. Was that just an oversight or do they know something about the reliability?

And that won’t pass smog in states like CA...

Unfortunately the team that suggested a recreation of Rainbow Road was liquidated.
