FYI it is impossible to make anybody happy anymore.  If AM came out with a car and only used men they would be sexist.  If they market one directly to women they are pandering.  If they do market research and learn something it is blasted for not applying to every individual person.  There is no winning anymore.  Hell…

I always liked that BMW made the range extender i3 that kept the motor in just energy creation and not in drive. Cars that integrate battery and ICE power are just a terrible bastard of 2 good ideas. ICE is great for what it is and EVs are great for what they are. Combining the two does not improve either, you just…

It is like SCCA but different.  I like it better, but I know others feel differently.  The NASA driver training program is life changing good.  

Every dyno is different. Even ones produced at the same factory on the same day are different. NASA uses dynos to class cars and it is a real kick in the balls when your car makes 10% more power on their dyno than it did on one with an adjacent serial number in similar weather conditions.  

Nope you are not alone.  I hope the flat 4 drops to current egg eye prices faster than the prior generations.  I just want a fast car for not much money and am not offended by a water cooled flat 4 in a Porsche.  

But remember Porsche likes to charge more for less so that would probably end up costing $100,000 :( 

Personally I like him for all the reasons you don’t like him. He is practical by nature and talks about things that could happen. Bernie and Warren sound great, but implementing their ideas will never happen.

As a Steelers fan I hope this is Big Ben’s last contract. He is fading and a major cancer to the team. A friend asked me if I would have rather seen Ben have a career ending injury than Ryan S. and it took me exactly 0 seconds to say 1,000 times yes. I don’t wish an injury on anybody (except maybe Ray murder Lewis)…

Thanks Jackass you set the stage for this style of thing. I get the hate, but it all makes perfect sense when you remember:

“an option for carpets so you won’t annoy all your neighbors driving it down the road.”

GLWS that looks almost perfect. The rust in the rear comes from a terrible drain design, mine had the same and I pulled a bucket of compost out of each side when I got it.

Stick?  RWD? Location? Price?

I still miss my E46 wagon that thing was dam near perfect as a family vehicle.  Everything fit in it and it was comfortable on road trips then fun when you ran into a twisty road.  10 out of 10 would buy another.

User name checks out.  Times change most Fords are built in Mexico, but they are still Fords.  If you don’t think a Bentley is a unique product you are crazy, they might be built on a shared platform but there is still a ton of unique parts involved to replicate the feeling a Bentley should have.

Agree and based on my experience both nailed the heritage of the brand. I drove a 90's Bentley and rode in the current gen and there is a similar feel to the cars. Completely different vehicles, but similar feeling.

Draymond is the current Laimbeer / Rodman. Easy to hate, but dam hard to beat.

We used to take stickers for our fun biking group and put them on big sponsored vehicles then see how long before they pulled the stickers off. I feel like this company is the same, only they used another company’s logo instead of taking 10 minutes to make their own.  

VW has done a great job making modern Bentleys. The comfortable to sporting ratio is spot on for the heritage. It is very easy to enjoy a car that is other worldly comfortable then a push of your foot and you are going 200 with the AC blowing and the seat massaging.  I can think of no finer way to cross a continent…

Another possibility, Durant knew the risk and his contract language. So he played knowing if he looked good he was set to get paid by the Knicks, but if something happens he gets paid by the Warriors.

You get a star for solving this by putting something up Seb’s ass.
