“Form follows function.” “No compromises.”

You are disagreeing with a position that isn’t mine.

I stipulated up front that holding back in the corners and hammering it on the exit is only 75% as fun as driving 9/10ths. So it’s not me being all about straight lines.

It seems to me that you are the one ignoring what myself and others are trying to say.

Wat? Slow car fast has nothing to do with 9/10 driving, sliding around and making risky passes.

That thing looks surprisingly un-special, even by the low standards of SUVs. It might as well be a new Toyota or Hyundai.

There is almost no point of contact between your response and what I actually wrote.

It’s as if you’ve ignored everything I’ve written.

“Overdriving your brakes” means not being able to stop within your line of sight. If you’re taking corners at 9/10ths in order to enjoy driving a slow car fast, you’re overdriving your brakes.

On the street, the old saying is wrong.

Reading comprehension.

Anyone who parrots those criticisms is merely advertising their inexperience. Source: personal road-course and street experience in a MkIV Supra back when it was still in production.

Of course. It’s called situational awareness. Get over your fear of looking at strangers or take the bus. If you’re not paying attention to other road users - and whether or not they’re paying attention - you have no business behind the wheel of an automobile.

I agree. Provenance and all.

That sad period in American history where “impact bumpers” ruined every good European car’s lines also produced a series of rubbery chunks that look far more edible than a Thanksgiving turkey will ever be.

Both cars have been very de-Aston Martinized. They look like generic video game sports cars.

GM has had a Supplier Discount price since forever. And they have a lot of official suppliers. I suspect a lot of people work for a GM supplier and don’t even know it.

I’m not sure how somebody could “unintentionally” use the “N-word” against a fellow employee

You need a new bit.
