    Just too expensive to build, sadly. Why build a 2l V12, if you can pack the 2l in 4 cylinders. You save lots of labour, 8 spark plugs, 8 fuel injectors, 24 valves...

    Yea, that sounds too much like a BMW production car! Make it BMW M. That would be a contrast to the regular naming scheme of putting anything drivetrain related in the name. (My current favorite BMW X5 xDrive40e iPerformance. “My name is iPerformance, BMW X5 iPerformance, BMW X5 xDrive40e iPerformance”)

    Exhaust noise, not blow off valve.

    Not really EVs, they will bring lots of them over the next years, but an electric supercar is just stupid, if you don’t have a sufficient charging infrastructure and building a sufficient charging infrastructure for just a supercar is super expensive.

    Samsung uses Samsung SDI, you know which supercar uses Samsung SDI as its battery supplier? BMW in the i8. (Maybe also Audi, but this R8 has been such a secrete, that probably Audi doesn’t know either)

    It doesn’t, you are mistaking torque with power. Maximum power is now somewhere between 5000 and 5500 rpm. Before it was between 5500 and 6000. I wonder if the gearbox and more importantly that AWD clutch pack can cope with that amount of low end torque.

    I know what the fix is going to be: nothing. As long as they aren’t forced, they won’t do anything. Remember how the fire hazard recall went? They even tried to do nothing, when they were forced. And even then they came up with a cheap solu... wait a minute! Lead tow hitch!

    This time a lead one :D

    As a rational being you should go back and look at those footsteps. After that go to god and ask him why those footsteps suspiciously look like yours and if it was him you had to carry around all the time.

    I don’t think lowering the engine is possible, the same goes for moving it back. Engines are usually as low and far back mounted as possible, within the existing structure.nStiffening the front suspension is possible, but definitely has a bad effect on ride quality. Putting more weight in the back results in lowered

    It was, not it is. It seems to be quite common with Jeeps nowadays.

    FCA development testing? They have a R&D department but that actually stands for “root beer & doughnuts”.

    Yea almost two now, but still. Add that to a decreasing car market, which usually hits sports cars harder and a 10% decrease is very normal. Those 33% might be tough for Ford, but thats way within the “margin of error”.

    The article doesn’t make it clear enough, it is 32% less than the same month a year before. So September 2016 Ford sold 32% less Mustangs than in September 2015. If it was just seasonal, they wouldn’t need to send their workforce on vacation. Year over year, both the Camaro and the Mustang are down around 10%.

    Down 32%, compared to the same month last year. Seasonal drops are nothing new, thats why you have dealers. But if the dealer lots are too full, you will have to stop production. Lets just hope this was a one time thing, if not...

    You are only halve right. The thing is that most people don’t vote for a candidate, or a politic view, but for a team. Its team red and team blue. And if you are team red, you will vote team red no matter who is running for it and vice versa.

    “and parking this car You have to be 100% sure that you won’t meet same car when party is over.”

    Uhhh... cooool.

    He and the Donald will be too much fun. Poor Philippines...

    They still sold well with people that go: “Uhh, Jeep!” Which is probably the preferred customer.
