This seem sufficient...

Sure haven’t Patrick. Bust that side pipe is peaking my interest...

Big V8, Black, No A/C, Summer, Texas, CP.

Plus 1 Star. The G80 is also a real sized luxury car. Not what amounts to a dressed up Corolla sized compact. Plus it comes with all the little tech things standard.

I guess the driver kept losing to Himself and couldn’t handle the Edge.

I give you UT Arlington...

Oh no! Not an “endurance test” in 80* weather! Make those British electronics do some work and bring it on down to Texas. Ninety-five plus degrees and with a nice solid 65% humidity. And that tiny little 700 mile drive won’t even get you all the way through this great state. Pshhh, “endurance”.

There is an aftermarket option of sorts. Electronic Superchargers. They are battery driven, usually on a separate circuit from the main battery. They have a 10-20 second duration and take about 20 minutes to charge back up. Here is an example of one being developed for the ND Miata; http://forum.miata.net/vb/showthread…

I have, and the ‘83 Corvette as well.

Congratulations, you picked the right tool for the job.

That sounds pretty bad ass. Now to find a way to market this type of idea to the general public. I wish I owned a vacant lot...

So with all this new luxury added, will the GT-R finally touch 4,000lbs? What Nissan needs to do is call up their local Jenny Craig and take care of business.

Seth MacFarlane looks like some weird Bizarro World Leonardo DiCaprio in that picture.

No Austin party for this? Is Austin just too hip? Is is the rock throwing? The Uber thing? What did we do wrong?!

Don’t give up hope just yet. With the Genesis brand coming around and bringing a “near-luxury” coupe I have a suspicion that Kia may get to utilize that platform. Hyundai/Kia isn’t known for creating a full chassis for one car.

I currently have a ‘13 Veloster turbo. My previous cars were an FC RX7, NA Miata, S13 240SX, Protege 5. Steering feel is vague at times but quite honestly you get used to it. There are few minutes tweaks that are very common to up the feel and responsiveness. A rear torsion bar, front rigid collars, strut bar,(all 3…

Since the “near luxury” seems to be attached to the smaller vehicles I can see this as a good internal designation or goal. I wouldn’t really consider a 3-Series, A4, or CLA a luxury car. Luxury brand sure, but the entry level offerings from the luxury car makers aren’t what I would consider luxury. Luxury is…

Japan is split into 47 prefectures. Which is pretty much the equivalent to a state here in the U.S. It is really close in size to California, but has almost 4 times the amount of people in that area. It does indeed have a LOT less political crap to deal with on large national projects.

I can’t wait to see the new 2018 Nissabishi Outlander Sport Cross Cabriolet SE-R.

Patrick, you need some new friends. We have a small group that meets every Tuesday, we touch such topics as; “Should I buy this RX7 for an LS1 swap? Getting a Miata as your 2nd and 3rd car, or which gold wheels look best?”
