Yes, but it needs to be an actual production model.

I was right, simple fixes and it's good to go: period correct Alpina wheels, bumpers go on ebay. Slushbox goes to the dump and is replaced by everyone's favorite Mexican, Manuel Transmíssiõn, engine gets an overhaul. Suspension is replaced by Bilstein. And you're off to church by Sunday.

I didn't even read the article, all I needed to see was the price & the words BMW & barn-find. NP all the way.

I'm going to gues the average Bugatti buyer also wears a turbin, and spends a fair amount of time praising Allah for his continued oil production each day.

The supercharger is good enough to get the V8 to put out, as we keep saying, 717 HP (at 6600 RPM), and 632 lb-ft at 4400 RPM. That's enough to get this not-really-light car to lurch from a standstill to 60 in 3.6 seconds, and run a 1⁄4 mile in 11.2 seconds, at 131 mph.

This is a tough one for auto enthusiasts but unfortunately necessary. Cars are such an emotional thing, but you can't let your heart lead the car buying process. Use your brain when you're buying it then use let your heart lead once it's yours.

Fire off an email to all the local dealers so they know they're competing with each other, which will help narrow it down to a handful who will give you the best deal.

Heresy! diluting the brand! Etc!Etc!

yes the Gallardo came before the R8, but it was built with Audi money and German values.

Anyone upset by the idea of a crossover needs to take a good hard look at Porsche and Lamborghini. both realized that it's impossible to just make sports cars. One launched an SUV to boost profits. The other now makes modified Audi R8's.

None of that's really important because what you care about is the engine. It's only two liters, but if a little turbocharging goes a long way, then 26 PSI of boost will essentially take you across the entire distance of Vermont (north-to-south) faster than you can say "Seriously if I eat any more cheese or maple I'm

alternatively, own at least one car that isn't a POS.

I'm going to assume this guy has hypermilled the crap out of it....

you're only an asshat if you cause inconvenience to another person. Taking up 2 spots in the far reaches of the parking lot is not asshatery, it's being considerate of others. You want the extra spaces, but you're not going to impose on other nice citizens.

25 years ago, Hyundai was making generally terrible but cheap cars that no one really wanted to buy. Now they have a $60k full-sized luxury car that competes with the Mercedes S-Class. Kia has gone and done the same thing with the K900.

I think the whole stick shift mistake has more to do with the general publics perception of supercars. The director knows that supercars should have 3 pedals and a stick. And he knows that the average viewer expects this out of a high end supercar, so he did what Ferrari was too afraid to do. We should applaud him for

Mini Cooper or Mk1 Golf are the 2 best of all time.

would any Jalop actually choose to buy a new beetle over an old beetle? You could find a nice old beetle way cheaper and have something that at worst case won't loose value & will be more engaging to drive.

yeah, inflatable donut under the carpet in the frunk. At least it was there on my 996tt

It may be bigger that a 911 turbo, but is that really saying anything? I can't even put my duffle bag in the frunk without some squeezing. Nearest I can tell if you take the spare tire out then it's basically made for carrying 3 24pks of you're favorite caned beer. the back seat is always my first option for carrying
