Because certain things are important to us, for one reason or another, and we tacitly accept that those things may involve consequences. Up to and even when those consequences become something profound or damaging.

Considering I own both a 987 Cayman S and Evora S I can say that the Evora is a much better handling car while providing a smoother ride at the same time and is faster (at last for me) around the track. The Cayman is a pretty built-proof car that's hard to disagree with but at the end of the day I'd pick the Evora…

Yes, this is totally BS and should be treated with the same side-eye as the VW van 'leak' from earlier in the week.

So many questions:

Great post.

You've said you're basically arguing for expanding the definition of supercar, to include other cars, for other reasons, but then you go and say this:

I'm not going to say anything because I don't want to be an asshole.

A few years back I bought (for no reason other than it was <$1000 and needed a car and am an idiot who never buys things that make sense) a Chevrolet P-30 Step Van.

Lets see TCO.

What's often left out when police departments talk about the deals on these MRAP's, is their horrendous maintenance and upkeep costs. You can easily spend more than the fleet purchase price on a Charger/Taurus/Impala just to keep an MRAP on the road. They're a white elephant disguised as a "free MRAP".

"Littlejohn went on to say that the vehicle would be used by police officers for protection in the case of an active shooter, or if the school needs to rescue children from a fire, because no one in this situation has apparently ever heard of a fire department."

Water puts out fire, sure, but why use water when you can…

My experience with Maserati's.

Wow, for a section called 'car buying' this is some terrible advice!

Standard reaction to the 550, 'yeah, nice, but an M5 is faster.' That's nice, run along cupcake.

Have you ever driven any of the cars you cite as howlers? Shit performers? Allow me a sarcastic scoff in your general direction. And by stating that the front engined ones being hideous are you not also using entirely subjective yardsticks to colour your judgement of the cars?

Ferrari making 3000 more cars a year is a nail in Enzo's coffin? Shit man, you trotted out EVERY worn out Jalopnik buzzword for insulting success in one comment, that's impressive.

Please do share your in-depth insight into driving the LaFerrari.

Now that would make a great pricing website.

Maybe so, but I'll bet there are more "some day I want to own a Ferrari" on bucket lists than there are lists stating "some day I want to own a Ford Fusion." No car is perfect, but it's the allure of "we aren't flooding the market, to make you want it more" that keeps people coming back. Ferrari's are rolling pieces…
