I see your point, and can attest to doing the same. However, my point was, having driven some of these cars, that you won't switch your in-built spar-o-matic off once you reach a more challenging stretch of road, like i am sure you do in your Scooby. Even on the Stelvio pass, if you're in a Prius, your only challenge…
That's what having an economy-oriented car turns you into: you drive with one goal only, and that is getting your MPG high as possible. They're hacking your brains these prii and volts of this world.
That's one movie cliche that's never getting old.
The 75 normally came with your choice of i4 1.8, i4 1.8t, V6 2.0 or V6 2.5 petrol, as well as i4 2.0 diesel engines. All of them stricktly FWD, naturally. Putting a 4.6 V8 with RWD in there is really putting the wolf among the sheep - it just changes the whole effing ballgame, regardless of how it compares to other…
I....I..... I really cannot make up my mind. I live in a country, where i could in fact register this beast (would be tearfully expensive though), so feds are put to one side, but if i add those fees to the price, it becomes, well, a lot of dough. However, it is a lot of car too. The 75 is nice and easy on the eye, is…
That's a lot of money for what is one of the least welcoming cars i happened to ride in - still, street-worthy Samurais are ever harder to come accross, not to mention one in good shape, so if this is your cup of tea, the price is fair by me. It's just that i could tell you fifty better ways to leave your lover.
I see someone in Stuttgart-Zuffenhausen thought the Audi A2 had this idea about the hood not giving access to the engine right. I am not so sure, but hey, who am I to tell off Porsche engineers?
Nonononono, that's not what i heard. This was a pitch where carmakers showed off their products to MGM to drive her Majesty's least secret agent, Mr. Bond, in the then upcomming couple of flicks. The thing is, they held it at a military base, so that the other car companies wouldn't know, what to expect. Rumour has…
This hype of the turbine is starting to blow over the top, i say.
V8 in an M3 is wrong if you ask me. Started out as a i4, had its best years as an i6, i'm happy to hear the next gen will take the step back to those lines.
Let me do it for you. There.
It did say in the manual, that the SRS onyl works with the seat belt, so what's wrong here?
I would imagine they will have to seriously overdose Mr. Zwart with tranquilizers, to eradicate the possibility of the racing car being ticketed, or God forbid, impounded for speeding. This is a PR stunt after all, and breaking the law in a Porsche just does not cut it. So this might just be the slowest anyone did…
So, what we have here is a sweet alfa fourcam with even sweeter double webers, plus maybe other salvageable and resaleable parts like transaxle & running gear - all this for $5000. Everything else is only there to be put out of its misery by the means of fire.
I would imagine this is the only 'rat' bike or car, rats actually like.
Don't really know what's in store - but i will be there working as a journo, so i do hope for a drive.
Not to brag and all, but it seems I'm going to be there at this 'M night', next Thursday. Apart from the M5 preview, there supposed to be a special M3 around too - something along the lines of that M3-amino. Just sayin'
So...where are the golden wheels?
