Yeah there was a Silver one with red interior at the Aston/Bentley dealer in Calgary as well. Don’t think anyone ever bought it, but was so memorable.

Tacoma X-runner!

Yelling at strangers is always the way to go in life!

I’m interested in the long-term life of carbon-tubbed road cars. Will these things be around in 50 years? Yeah they don’t rust, but if they crack it’s not straight-forward to find or fix. Don’t get me wrong - Carbon all the things - just an engineer bored at work.

Surely nobody’s worse than Porsche for this.

Meanwhile all the other cars are actually doing what cars do, driving down the highway, while Volvo Mc.Smugface sits there like a chump.

I’ll only start to believe this when they start using spellcheck.

This past winter I was riding shotgun in one of these which blew a motor mount at well under 10,000 miles and took out a bunch of engine bay parts while it was at it. Did you know there are no engineered tow points on these? POS.

Agree - that car def got obliterated. The lady seems to be screaming something to the effect of “my car!” at the end too. But maybe that was the best possible outcome for her. It would’ve been trashed after jumping the tree. Now it’s gone from repairable to a write-off. Insurance might pay for a new one.

Google microburst. I’ve been in one - it was bananas for a minute or two, then normal again. Very strange.

what the actual fuck.

exactly. I don’t get the hype for this guy.

I wanna know how those wonky super-clearance axels work. Wikipedia could tell me, but this is more fun.

I find his Evo Diaries and Harry’s Garage videos to be so good. They’re all about actually living with these cars day to day.

The saving grace is that many good things have come to the automotive world from people pissed off at Ferrari. That’s what started Lamborghini in the first place, and in turn led to Zonda. That’s what gave us three generations of GT40...etc.

maybe more. It’s a deal!

and nearly 8x peak torque, never mind the difference at the bottom end. But a NB miata is 0.2% of the price.

I’m thinking they were never even sold on my side of the fence. We’ve got a regular Solstice in our AutoX club. Does pretty well.

I didn’t even know that was a thing

My point that I failed to articulate is that it would still undercut the Cayman GT4. I think already the M4 undercuts the Carrera lineup substantially, M4GTS undercuts the GT3 - not really apples to apples but close-enough. Similar power figures but a real weight difference. Mainly I’m hoping someone shakes up Porsche…
