I am all for more manual options, but does it have to have such a short top gear?

I put a deposit down on one the day the configurators opened. The dealership offered it at MSRP. Hopefully the dealership sticks to the price agreement now that the media embargo has lifted and these will start getting attention.

and engineers don’t need to worry about engine lug with a modern auto. So the final gear can be much lower than what you could get with a stick.

Is that a supra?

The idea is not to win SUV drivers over, but to rally people who also hate SUVs.

This is a nothing burger, right?

The entire car is busy.

But where’s the value for VW in a continued agreement?

The trouble is when the 3rd year is the last year.

but nobody is gonna want to pay $10k over MSRP for what’s “just” a Corolla.

AE86 philosophy which was cheap, light and RWD.

The GR86 might or might not put down as good a numbers as the Corolla GR, but it was built from the ground up to be a sportscar and not an economy car.

Is Porsche going to be allowed to leverage VW technology going forward?

I don’t understand why so many commenters are like “if I can’t fill up at a ‘gas-station’ equivalent in 5 mins flat then EVs are a failed enterprise”;

Remember when a Mustang matched this M3 in lap times for less than half the price?

Scalpers didn’t kill the FoRS. You could get them at under MSRP by the second year and at steep discounts by the end of their production run.

It’s not produced anymore, but still on sale. It has every single futuristic cliche imaginable.

Most places wait for 10-15 seconds after you pull up to blast commercials into your face. As a bonus, they leave the volume at MAX.

Soros-backed Democrats are buying left wing ads at gas stations in order to anger patriotic voters and trick them into buying EVs.

its in the story title, lol.
