There seems to be plenty of market for the biggest truck money can buy. No worse than that Rezvani bro dozer Pos and might actually be practical. Besides, there are lot of commercial truck needs in between a pickup and a semi

Honestly, yet to see a color that doesn’t work on this car

Are these available for rest at tracks anywhere? If so we should start a Jalopnik fund raising campaign for you. Ford GT is my favorite car too so I insist we hear all about it afterwards.

Yea but it’s the coolest car on the list, I think we should let it slide. I mean look at it, it’s gorgeous.

I think statute has long expired in terms of being found guilty

It’s not the sky I’m worried about as much as them landing... really quickly...unintentionally. 

Yes, one has an oval, the other has a circle on the font. Is there really a reason to buy a CLA? No, just the badge. This Merc truck will be the same principle. They’re basically rebadging a Nissan anyway, aren’t they?

That’s the sexiest frog I’ve ever seen

The 2.5 got replaced in 2013 in the WRX. I think you are right about drive-train though, they still had 5sp at least through the 2012 model year but it got beefed up somewhere in the 2006 time frame. Talking WRX here. Pretty sure nothing has changed on the STI since like 2003

I had stuff to do, was only going to check Jalopnik for a minute. Now my evening is going to be watching rally videos until I go to bed. What I’m trying to say is thank you.

A lot of that Raptor weight is in the wheels, that Taco has some beefy ones on there so I bet it’s even closer than that.

I saw a ton of lifted trucks in Iceland and when I say lifted I mean lots of tire, not a brodozer lift. Jalopnik should do a little write-up on their car culture.

For all the ground clearance and locking diffs and torque and all that jazz, on factory tires Raptors are not good on snow at all. I mean they would do fine in the city, granted so would a Honda Fit, but you’re out of luck on a service road with any incline. Tires are too beefy, don’t dig in.

An asshole parked at a green light is a safety issue, primarily the safety of the guy behind him who could get rear ended by the next car coming down and seeing a green light and not slowing down enough

Not gonna lie I only skimmed the pictures but headlight placement and grille makes me think of the Quattroporte but the belt line and wheels and general proportions are way off. Sorry, no help at all

A guy at my old gym drove one and I overheard a couple of the bros there calling it a lambo, not like in a “Pretty sure it’s a lambo” joke type of way. It is kind of an understated sensible Diablo looking car.

I had a car calendar with the Esprit in it. It was December 2000 in my room for a good two and a half years.

They are starting to get pretty expensive, especially the V8 ones people are asking about 40k and about half that for the 2.2L

I was heart broken when they trashed one of these on Top Gear in Patagonia

Great use of interrobang
