Something about the styling of this car makes me think of a Pontiac....if Pontiac was still making sporty sedans...or anything.

So only guys are allowed to drive them? Wow. How sexist of you. :D

I’d say they have improved just as much, but in different ways. Whereas in previous gens we got improved poly counts, better textures and resolution increases as the major differences, this time we are getting much better lighting, much better physics including particle effects, better animation and so on. We are…

Clearly that’s a bug. They fixed it in Patrick Stewart 1.2.17 though. Besides, it only affected him in the captain’s chair.

It’s both. Older engines didn’t have as realistic abilities. UE 4 and other new engines have much improved lighting models. There are a lot of other improvements too, but the lighting improvements probably make the biggest visual improvements. If you took older engines and use the new GPUs, they aren’t going to look…

Kind of misleading article. The base price of the S3 is $41K but the S3 Prestige starts at nearly $50K. So yeah, it’s a premium, about half the amount stated here.

Meh. We make commercials that have nothing to do with characters too. But it’s super common in Asia. I’ve seen Pikachu and Mario internet cafes here. What does Mario or Pikachu have to do with an Internet cafe? Absofuckinglutely nothing. Did they license the use of those characters? Did I really just ask that?…

As an American I have only ever had one complaint about TVRs...they don’t sell them HERE. </grumble-grumble>

And Acura sells boring versions of BMWs.

Yeah I saw it. Good flick. But I think you are pretty safe saying not for sale 99.9% of the time. ;)

I have a good answer if someone asks how much it costs...just say “Sorry, it’s not for sale.” If they are stupid it will confuse them, if they are a little smarter, they will get they went over the line. (I’m going to assume they aren’t smart or they wouldn’t ask in the first place....so stupid and a little smarter…

One of us (you or me) doesn’t know what cool means, that’s for sure.

I get what you are saying, and normally I’d agree with you. But it’s actually very likely to reverse in the future. The reason is advanced manufacturing techniques like 3D printing and whatever else comes up in the future. Right now if you want a computer chip you have to make lots of them. But in the future, you will…

I think the biggest issue that contributes to this is the rapid aging of Japan. With people in Japan having very few children generally and a very strict immigration policy, combined with one of the highest average life expectancy numbers in the world, more and more of Japan is old. And old people are a lot less…

As you should. Alliterative wannabe.

Love this car, but it looks SO much better to me with body color vents like this:

You can order any Corvette (including the Z06) with body color vents. So black isn’t required. The first year (2014 model) C7 came out they didn’t offer the option at launch but they added it either later that year or in the 2015 model...I forget which. I don’t know why but you never see them that way in reviews. I…

I don’t know. I snip things all the time without a spotter. OH, you meant sniping. Yeah, 2 people are better for that.

It’s 2 posts above your post in the thread motherfucka.

Very first car I bought was a Citation. I can’t remember now if it was the same color as this one or a light gray. (I have tried to block it from my mind that I bought one over 30 years ago.)
