2006 VW Phaeton W12.

It’s a freaking masterpiece.

That IS amazing.

One of my favourites in the genre.

Came here looking for this example because it’s my favorite. Thank you.

That’s not just art, that’s high art.

LMH cars are allowed to run in IMSA, however they’ll require a hefty BOP to take part since LMH and LMDh regulations aren’t the same.

I would disagree with the Audi A4 statement. The BMW 3-series redesign looks awful. I’d rather take a F30 vs G20/21.

Dont forget their RX-8 copy. I loved this thing

The Impreza is already out with a new one, and it’s ruddy awful.

That was my submission. I’ve seen a few of these Alfa models listed on eBay that I think were from Canada. Parts are fairly easy to obtain for them. 

There was one of these street parked in SoHo for many years in the late aughts. The giveaway was the diplomat plates.

There are a number of these that actually have FMVSS and CMVSS stickers in their door sills. I featured one or two of them on my cars for sale column. Someone (or someones) went through the work to make some of these legal!

You have a BMW logo as your avatar. People in glass houses...

I like the clean looks of the original design. HOWEVER....

1989 964 Carrera 4.

It’s less about “respect” and more about money. Having drivers got through F2 puts money in the FIA’s (and F2 managing director Bruno Michel’s) pockets. They basically don’t want anyone getting into F1 without going through the feeder series (like Max did, except not for the “official” reasons stated—his age).

As long as money isn’t an object, I’ll say the Koenigsegg Gemera (can’t post images). There is nothing about that car that isn’t from the future. I can only hope that a lot of the technology in it eventually filters its way into more mass produced and affordable cars, which over time, tends to be the case.

They’ve got to be annoyed, especially because it looks much better

As a side note - how amazing was that record? Definitely the only electric supercar which makes me buzz with excitement, so looking alike can’t be a bad thing I guess
