..sigh.. I grow tyred of these bluetooth speaker gimmicks.

..also the Hard Ice Blue designation sounds like something that you’d find in a gas station convenience store in a 12-pack for about $8.

I think the reason they wouldn’t work is really due to the way the game engine creates single-biome planets.. In NMS if there is a sandworm on a planet then the entire planet would be covered in sandworms because that’s how it works.. and that would probably be a bad experience.

Bro.. get a Lambo.

I C(130) what you did there.

I feel like this is designed to be a prop in a Sacha Baron Cohen movie where he plays some over-the-top eurotrash archetype, covered in cologne, who smokes long cigarettes and drives around Texas in this thing provoking the ire of middle America.

The real storyline that this represents is that the Renault works team and McLaren are both underperforming given their large development budgets and driver talent pool. They should be consistently within a second of RBR’s times.

True. We had the technology. We had the capability.

I love the fact that it’s 2018 and we’re still jumping bikes over shit like its the 70s.

Yeah agreed that Renault isn’t on par with MB and Ferrari in terms of pure power, but RBR is still somewhat in the mix - they’ve got the same number of wins as Mercedes (They’d be even more in the mix without that double DNF crash in Bahrain)..

Yeah.. but in reality the Mercedes power advantage is gone. Like Red Bull, Mercedes is succeeding based on the skill of the driver and the aero and chassis design, not the power plant.

Really where they went wrong wasn’t with making a ridiculous key.. (At this level keys are basically a tiny portable trophy you carry around with you).. where they went wrong is in charging an additional fee for it.. they should have just baked in a few grand to the base price - no one would have noticed and the only…

I’d kind of like to see what the undercarriage of a 200K Saturn driven in Minnesota for 14 years looks like before putting the crack pipe down.

..so we’re, what, about 3 years away from 1,000 bhp at a Chrysler dealership?

Love Lotus (own an 08 Elise SC in fact).. but just no. The body kit, while not as gag-inducing as most body kits, it is still a downgrade over the original and provides no real advantage.. unless you’re a fan of hearing plastic scraping sounds when you’re entering a driveway.

I don’t mind the Exige side pods, but the…

“Mechanic’s Special”

Hmm... so it’s going to be squarely in meh car territory then? Perfect. About 210bhp and 240 lb-ft of torque powering about 3600 lbs. should do it nicely.

This is alternate dimension Les Claypool that never learned how to play Bass and was raised by Internet forums.

I think the way they are putting the logo parade on their site is designed to be a bit disingenuous - usually a string of logos like this is meant to imply positive coverage or even endorsement. The light gray text above is factually accurate, but the overall practice seems shady.

It’s cool though because it’s be reported on by these reputable sites. That one on the far right seems dodgy.. but Reddit seems like a legit source.

That Prelute is amazing.. a ton of work went into it and it’s a pretty high quality piece of work.. (I’m guessing this is the same one: https://jalopnik.com/comment-of-the-day-honda-prelute-edition-1826309550.. because who else is crazy/brilliant enough to do this?).
