this is the same country that has NO ISSUES with obvious fakes made to a substandard level and sold on a public that is told what to buy? When it comes to cars they shouldn't be able to say anything until they start doing something original themselves. (yes, I know it's different in seperate but equal China) This is

I see your point, to a point. I want the a/c that works, gps that works, and reliability of a warranty. I want the looks of a 991 911 with the stuff inside a 930, (aside from the gps, hell, maybe I will just use my Nexus). I wish I could spec that car.

I am not a journalist (yet?). Just a guy who loves cars and would love a good 991 911 for some weekend canyon carving and one to take from Seattle to San Fransisco in a weekend, and back, without aching. I don't want to take this 911 of my dreams to a track.

while i admire the work you put in, I am not worried about laptimes. if I was, I would love the GT3RS (i do love it). I am talking about a base 991 911 for people that just want a GT 911.

fake porsches? may as well go back to the 80's and 90's with the 928. when people think of Porsche, they think 911. and $75k isn't a small amount! why couldn't I get a real 911 stripped of options, but not everyday driveability for 85% of the price of a 911 now-a-days? it's a 991 version of an early 911. back when it

I see your point. but I feel there would be a market for people wanting a fun car... hell, call it a 912

I mean a fun to drive base model 911. for the road.

not sure what this means

They should make a 911 with fabric, no powered seats, no leather, good plastic, rwd, narrow body, no spoiler, 18" fuchs, with halogen headlamps, and a 6 spd stick, hydraulic steering, and sell it for $75k. call it the 911 Classic. Just a real bare bones 911 that people drive for the joy of driving. I really think that

I fixed it. you forgot the vinyl roof

not sure why I care about cars, especially the ones I have no current hope of owning or driving. Guess I love engineering, but I read Jalopnik for the same reason I listen to Adam Carollas car cast podcast Car based humor. Some facts are wrong, but most are right... sometimes I find myself infuriated by how the fact

I found this odd too... usually turbos enjoy colder denser air, while the NA's don't really care as much.

my guess is they have tested the durability, simply cuz it's in the F150... people expect them to do what they do for 250,000 miles, or they will utterly destroy them as consumers. Ford likely won't want to get the durability thing wrong... but as for a stressed small displacement turbo V6 or a twice as large V8 and

well isn't cooling very important for towing? I think that video is pretty damning, but I really am not sure. I would be interested in braking competitions with the trailer as well, considering the F150's loss of weight, less mass over the front as well... also important when towing or when your bed is filled with

Good call an the Maxima love Tavarish... though I assume my reverence for it and photos and love and your experience and my experience and love and reverence for these cars probably helped it up the poll... I love these cars.

sexy.

Ha... he said final.

yeah, wife and I need a ladder to put up the rest of the seahawks country flag right there. good eye though!

agreed, the 5th gen 6spd SE was the last time they should ever use the 4DSC (4 door sports car). but honestly, my third gen, which I have some photos on here of, was the last one with an IRS... after that, they went the way of the banker, While the style of the current Maxima is nice, it's no longer sporty, just a big
