Agree, I think the new Focus RS looks awesome in that blue as does all the Volvo stuff. Even the M4/4 looks good in that Laguna Blue!

I always knew autonomous cars would save us from the robot apocalypse.

I had a white Miata and every time I saw a smurf blue one I wanted one.  Still do actually.  

I had hope that Lonzo Ball would bring the old style back since he has great court vision and nobody on the team can shoot a 3 pointer.

Odd that they left out the LS swap portion.  Ohh they didn’t replace the weak link of the car,  I see how they did it so fast now.  

I came here to argue that you missed something or that your list was just wrong. Then I actually read it and I think you did a great job. The only addition I would make is a VehiCROSS.

Good article, but I think you miss the point of the car.

Growth in sales is a questionable metric. If they only sold 2 one year and 2,000 the next it looks like a huge jump, but if the total population was 1,000,000 for both years the numbers are immaterial both years. It would be better to add a second metric that is % of total car sales to give a better idea of what is

I read this story and thought: this dude clearly has found his home, he sounds like Philly if it were a basketball player.

I was thinking a dedicated track car that you would trailer to events. Years of worrying about how to get home convinced me its easier to build just for track. If you are on track for 30 minutes then off for a couple hours it is just a question of how much charge you can add in that time. Once these things get popular

So just like a new Vette, can’t take the track heat :)

Plus the number of times Ray wears a white suit now just feels like a slap in the face of justice in general.  

Lonzo is at his best when the game is moving fast and he can use his court vision. If you put talent around him he has the potential to be a great distributor. The problem is LeBron needs perimeter shooting to complement his style and Lonzo doesn’t provide that.

I look forward to when people are doing these swaps for track cars.  Drag racing is cool and all, but there is potential for road course builds as well.  Most races are a known distance / time so get your range right and you could produce a very fast reliable track car.

The Solstice (and better looking Sky) are excellent LS swap candidates.

I was really worried that this story was going to suggest we all buy dirt bikes and try to jump them. Supercross is fun to watch as is the Red Bull Hard Enduro series which is just guys doing insane things on dirtbikes.  

Blue harbor freight jack is my favorite, always felt comfortable under it until I saw one fail. Now I use jackstands or ramps every time I go under the car.

Feels a little swoopier than a Volvo.  This might also be the only point where the word swoopy can be applied to a Forester :) 

Local Motors called they want in on this challenge to race in the “stock” class.

Nope those rear arches are so beautiful.
