This is again more idiotic rambling from Jeremy. He has, on screen, in the past few years, celebrated and liked new cars, many of which were heavy (he loves new range rovers for example), full of hybridzation (the i8, 918, P1), and even electric (model x). There are also plenty of fun, light cars still for sale today.

There’s a special place in hell for whoever decided to ditch the buttons in the new VWs. Destroyed the brand’s entire image.

I’m still begging Honda for a slightly more powerful Si version of this. I shouldn’t have to give up getting a Hybrid (or paying $300k+) If I want a low 14-second car and sharp handling.

As if there wasn’t enough reason to dislike Brunei already

This is my taking down of a confederate statue. Stop erasing our history!

I cannot believe I’m siding with Jeremy Clarkson in a controversy like this. Even if the test was “faked”, the issue with the Roadster’s charging and range was objective and real, and thus the review did its job by demonstrating those issues. The lawsuit was thrown out for a reason. I agree that top gear’s reviews

Bad question. performance is what matters. I think 4.0 seconds to 60 (13 sec quarter) is the minimum 0-60 that could be remotely useful on the road.

Given that the civic Si is in the comments, I’m gonna throw in my own car, the Elantra N. You get 95% of the performance of a Type R for 3/4th the price and a DCT option. Miata or BRZ would still be the correct “sports car” option.

Its such a disgusting vehicle. On looks alone, i wouldn't want to spend more than $25k. Not to mention the rear seats are uncomfortable and the interior touchscreens are excessive. These would all be turn-offs for owners of older MB models. 

For one, most cars are LIMITED to their listed top speed. That is absolutely the case for the base corolla. For two, the GR driver was not sustaining a speed of 114mph for a long time, and even if he did, its a 300hp performance that does not need to make even half of its maximum power to hit that speed and tires

The only problem with your comment is that this C63 weighs almost as much as that Pacifica PHEV you had. This isn’t just about the PHEV system. AMG added nearly 500 other pounds to the old car not counting the hybrid system, despite having half the engine. There’s just bad engineering here at work compromising the

It doesn’t matter. A base corolla can hit and sit at 114 mph with no significant problems. Why the hell can't the GR? 

Yeah we need to hold off on EV expansion until solid state batteries become commercially viable. Granted, the industry and governments should do everything they can to accelerate the process, but in the meantime there are too many weird issues (and no compelling options for me because CUVs and Tesla) for me to justify

I have a funky idea. Treat fast cars as a weapon, do background checks. Anything with 400+ hp? Background checks. You need a mostly clean driving record, no recent felonies, a mental health evaluation, maybe even require a special driving test. I'm just spitballing of course but I can't stand people getting behind

Paul’s point still stands. The thing still drives and operates more like a racecar. The engine needs to be rebuilt every 40k miles, there’s no storage, the seats don’t move, its extremely loud and extremely expensive in a way that a GT3 or even the AMG black series isn’t. 

Virtually all neighborhoods with anything other than medium to large sized single-family homes have an HOA in my state. Most people don't have a choice. 

Maybe its a good thing these are so disgustingly huge? Or else they’d be more appealing to people in denser areas and would be more likely to run people over? IDK this thing is disgusting. Im shocked more people haven't been killed

Well you reacted to an article reporting on donations this guy got from Israel and people were criticizing him for it and called us all anti-semtitic, so I have to assume you are ok with AIPAC donating huge sums of money to politicians to have them defend Israel as its commiting war crimes, right? No where in this

Or? Maybe I don't like my tax dollars being used in a botched military operation that killed 30 thousand civilians? It might be that simple you know. 

Ok see when you pulled "anti-semite" when no one said anything about jews or judaism proved to me that you should fuck yourself
