In case anyone wants to actually see the cool tires mentioned in the headline without going on a fucking goose chase:

I mean... What else would you like him to base his opinion on at this point?

Part of “elevating” a brand to compete with Porsche has to be build quality. Otherwise, using Porsche-level pricing for your products isn’t really competing, it’s overcharging.

My coworker replaced his E60 M5 with a Gulia Quadrifoglio because the upkeep on his beloved V10 was getting outrageous. I couldn’t help but wonder why he choose an even more unreliable car. Yeah, it had the new car warranty, but wouldn’t it drive you insane to be paying for the performance version and continually…

The same fate awaits any of the Peugeots, Citroens and Fiats they try to sell here in the U.S.

DID I TELL YOU I DRIVE A MERCEDES? IT’S AN AMG AND IT HAS SOMETHING CALLED EMOTION START! MY CAR IS BASICALLY A RACE CAR, BUT NOW I CAN HEAR IT A LITTLE BETTER. DID YOU KNOW THAT MERCEDES HAS WON THE LAST SIX CONSTRUCTOR’S CHAMPIONSHIPS IN FORMULA 1? NOT A LOT OF PEOPLE IN AMERICA KNOW THAT.

Lots of car names became famous to normies for…

Japanese styling.  German reliability.  They got it backwards.

Black provides the best visibility for shipping guards. Just sayin.

I feel like I’m reading the manifesto of a ska-apologist.

This atrocity deserves the profanity.

I wouldn’t hesitate at all... the S62 engine used in the Z8 is shared with the E39 M5, so there’s plenty of info on how to fix just about anything on that engine. Parts are readily available as well, you can maintain it on an average used BMW budget. I could afford to keep an E39 M5 running while making a very average…
