I agree, but wanted to remind the OP that the E46 also has it’s own issues. Persoanlly I think all these issues get blown out of proportion.

FYI the LFA sounds 1,000,000 times better in person than in recordings.  I don’t like Toyota / Lexus, but that engine makes a sound that rivals any sound any car has ever made.  I heard one go through its revs in person once and will never forget the goosebumps.

E46 has its own issues with vanous and rear subframe cracks.

My theory is the OSU Michigan rivalry is so strong people go to the other state and drive terribly just to piss people off. 

Same for the CR-Z it was designed to be a commuter for people who wanted to look cool.  

How many HP would you trade to get a third pedal?

Better question: How much did it cost to move the links to the right side of the page and totally screw up Kinja this time?

Interesting list.  I think this should be titled biggest club racing mistakes, not trackday mistakes.  

I wonder if it would go faster with Bugatti tires? That is typically the limiting factor.

BUT for the past decade Cleveland, Akron and Canton have been shrinking while Columbus is growing.  

This article comes off anti-hyperloop and pro dude from Cleveland. Let me clear something up. The rail from Cleveland to Chicago is always going to be focused of freight, there will NEVER be enough passenger traffic between the 2 to make passenger rail a financially viable option. Cleveland is losing population and

Star for Gruden code red.

Plus how awesome would it be for Lambo to make a hot hatch.

Looks like a Lambo.  I am 100% OK with Audi becoming some kind of Lambo light.  

The auto makers are just working to make us all accept autonomous cars. The best way to do that is make them so frustrating to drive and control anything that we all say screw it and ask for the robot overlords to take over the driving part. 

There has to be a conversion to add jump seats in the trunk.  If not I might just get rich creating one.  There have to be at least 2 people who would buy such a thing!

Exactly a performance LINE, not a hypercar. They are going to make honest good performance versions of their cars and based on their work so far they are going to be very good for what they are.

Why would Hyundai care about enthusiasts who buy very few cars? The majority of people want something that seems sporty to them, Hyundai is doing exactly that with their N line. These cars are just the right level of sporty to appeal to the masses which is where the money is.

I mean they don’t try to pass off their cars for something they are not. Their cars are getting better over time, but they still have that honesty to them. The opposite to me is GM where they dress up their cars so they look nice, but everything is cheap underneath.

I owned an Accent at their height of cheap car with a long warranty status. My parents have owned 8 different Hyundais. What I like about them is they are honest cars. They are becoming more confident as their cars get better, but they don’t sell things that are not what they seam. Turns out you can sell cheap cars
