It's actually mildly fun to drive, too. I don't prefer it to the X3 but it still has a fair place in the market. It's just old, like almost every Nissan and Infiniti chassis/drivetrain.

They're already mostly corraled in Florida, which is almost as good.

I'm not a fan of hating on inanimate objects, but this car needs to go fuck itself. It's unsafe, impractical, not even THAT CHEAP, and the gas mileage is just okay. I don't care if it's getting a new generation. It belongs in 3rd world countries.

I love absolutely all of this. I love everything about every 944 ever and I love the idea of a big American V8 weighing down the nose. But I'm not in love with the LT1. It just seems like they cut corners picking an engine and now it's priced as though they didn't. Crack pipe. Any LS series engine? A clean Windsor?

... Or the Vsport model that was all anyone talked about last year.

Have you ever been in/driven one? It'll make you a changed Jalop.

I have seen this car in Austin before!!! It's gorgeous and loud in person and I didn't realize it was a special edition.

Audi RS2. The badass, fast, small wagon before it was badass to be a fast, small wagon. Also, racing pedigree and quattro. Also it's beautiful - I'll have mine in Nogaru Blue please.

The answer is ALWAYS LS1 Miata. Unless its LS2 or LS7 Miata.

All time favorite resto-mod. I posted about it on Reddit last week actually.

The answer is apparently not always Miata.

Now that's a little silly. Personally, I'm still caught up on older-gen models because those are the ones that I'll rationally be able to afford in the next 5-10 years. I find myself pining after the 993 Turbo ): I'm a sucker for speed.

I think any/every 911 is the 911 that I really want.

Hmm. Maybe I drove a bad example. I'll give the sedan another whirl on the ongoing quest for my next car.

Then why do you want a G35?

Or a twin alternator setup. I heard those are the shit.

Serious question, have you ever driven one? I drove a cherry 50k mile, 6spd example this past summer and I was NOT impressed. While, yeah, it was quicker than the IS300 that I was benchmarking it against, the shift feel was somehow worse and the power delivery was the worst iteration of the VQ that I've ever driven.

I would cross shop this if they made a 2016 Ford Lightning. With the new EcoBoost from the new Ford GT.

just wait for him to keep going, I guess.

personally, I don't see why the twin turbo V10 from the RS6 didn't end up making it into the V10 R8. That motor could have made 600 horses easily.
