Eh, I sold my 911 to order a Z06, willing to bet it will be worth more than a comparable Gt3 in 10 years. The last track focused Vette before going hybrid and doing it with the highest output N/A V8 of all time? Yeah, that’s a collector.
As for Hideous, the C8 is, the Z06 isn’t. The 4 inches extra width and new front…
Literally every uber-lux sedan has gooseneck hinges these days since you can’t have a power-closing trunk without them (except for the Phaeton, as far as I can tell). As long as the hinges are covered and don’t crush my luggage, I’m happy.
This EV won’t work for me because the commute to my job is 20 miles each way and once I get there they don’t give me enough money to buy this car.

Logos, not always but a lot of times, work with association. I mean, Ferrari’s prancing horse is a good example. We associate that with Ferrari because that is the strongest connections that we make, while that particular logo’s origin is closer to Porsche.

Deep down, I know you’re right.
Now I just want to see it growing and shrinking.
In my neck of the woods, $5K buys you a fully restored Renault 4 (frame, body and engine). Mine cost me the equivalent to $1.2K and it’s been way more reliable than I could ever expect. Not only that, with the exception of a couple of bits of trim, most parts can be found for unbelievably cheap, and many are still in…
Keep in mind (unless you already know this) that the 4.2 has the lovely cam sprockets that are a press-fit, and requires the special tooling to get everything aligned properly - there’s a pin that goes in the side of the block to lock the crank, and a bar that aligns the cams - then the belt can be replaced.
