Are they really that much slower? I thought the bigger rims would make the car lighter (less rubber), and thus a little quicker.

Do we know anything about the powertrain? I'm hoping for 200+ bhp.

Z28 for comparison purposes

I do like the new headlights.

This kid...

918 GT3 RS???

Like Mazda said, the car was designed before the small overlap test. Newer Mazda 3's and CX-5's both have "good" ratings for the small overlap test. (Mazda 6 got an "acceptable" score). Shouldn't be long before they update the structural frame to better handle the test.

That's good point, didn't think about that.

Another thing to keep in mind, is that Hulkenburg was holding up the RBR's for quite a few laps (he was on the harder prime tyres while the RBR's were on softs).

I thought this was subtle reference to JB's (Jenson Button's) 250th GP this weekend in Bahrain!

Lewis had a misfire in one of his cylinder's (essentially running on only 5 cylinders) and also retired after a few laps. The team discovered it in the warm up lap.

Not to mention Williams looked great (performance wise) in preseason testing.

1. That backend looks amazing

I really wish I wasn't a broke college student, because I really want this car.

They should have changed the back end more. Looks exactly like a 12c. Not a fan of how it looks from the back

I think this older model looks much better

I'd much rather have this than a 5 series or A7

I'd love to see Alonso drive this at it's limits

LFE + Audyssey = Simple Set up

I put all of my highly valued documents in Dropbox, which I've built up to 24.4 GB of free storage from over the years. Everything else I don't back up.
