Mille Miglia — the name, I believe, translates to “1000 Migglias”

If it’s anything like the one in the Cayman GT4, it’s a radio joystick.

If anything, that’s a reason they’re more likely to put special stripes, leather stitching and wheels on a car and then sell it at a 30% premium as an “Edizione Dario Benuzzi.”

At one point the commentators said that the Porsche harvests energy under acceleration as well as under braking (it uses a battery-based system unlike the Audi’s flywheel). I’ve also heard that LaFerrari’s traction control allows it to do that, but I don’t quite understand how that works. From what I remember, LaF’s…

Correct assumptions on both counts.

It’s been 7 years now since my brain was assaulted by the X6, and I still hate it in the same retching impulsive way that I hate the taste of brussel sprouts. The only two reasons it wasn’t laughed out of the room within two model years are because:

Wings only generate significant downforce when air passes over it in a linear fashion. If the car’s oversteering at big angles it does nothing.

Couldn’t decide whether it works better with Cs or whether it should be 3edgy5me and have Ks in it, so I did both.

Wait wait wait, this used to be a Ford Capri?!

Oh for sure! You don’t make a car like this, get Maserati to build it for you in small numbers and then sell it for cheap.

The chassis’s carbon (albeit with aluminium subframes), the body is some other plastic composite.

There’s a 2005 NISMO GT-R Z-Tune currently on sale for around $572,000!

The world needs more of such zones.

I still don’t understand how the RC F weighs more than a Nissan GT-R. I was hoping it would be like the GT86’s equivalent in that segment, not necessarily the outright fastest but revvy and more old-skool fun. Alas, all reviews are non-plussed...

Given the half-million-dollar R34 NISMO Z-Tune doing the rounds, I’d have to say the R35 GT-R NISMO will probably stay in six-figure territory for most, if not all of its life. Especially if the next GT-R is indeed a hybrid (just look at manual GT3s now for the logic).

There's another meme image here! A pretty appropriate one for this story, no less. It's also on the amended one.

Isn’t that the nature of commenter-provided answers?

You absolutely need to watch BTCC again. The manufacturer involvement isn't anything like the Super Touring era, but the actual racing is genuinely just as good.

Not quite.

In terms of the shape, from a styling perspective, there’s no real reason for them to droop that far down IMO. The shape doesn’t resolve, it doesn’t connect to anything, they just sort of protrude from the main headlights by an arbitrary amount. That’s what I meant by aimless.
