I think the idea that having sedans doesn’t help SUV sales is flawed. My dad loved sedans and the only way he moved over to SUVs was going in to buy a sedan and a salesman asking him to try the SUV. He tried it and liked it and hasn’t bought a sedan since. If the dealer didn’t have sedans he wouldn’t have walked in…

If the new road lasts twice as long then maybe it is worth it.  

Ohio Valley style is clearly the best, it is weird as hell, but once you eat it you will realize cheese and pep should be added to pizza cold after the crust and sauce have been cooked.

Agree, BUT if we have learned nothing else from Gawker Media we should know that they write for clicks and headlines like this get them. I would also say I found the information interesting while coming to the same conclusion you did. It is good to know 1,2, and 3 but it is important to understand there are a billion…

They should do what any sane group does, use power to weight. Allow a number and then watch everybody build to the number. Want a 2 ton SUV? Great just give it a ton of power. Want a feather weight car? Great just don’t give it any power.  There obviously needs to be a weight limit so you don’t have Bigfoot running…

I owned a 2005, it was a great car, but 90% of the owners fit in my categories.  There is a small group of enthusiasts but the vast majority are girls or old dudes.  If you buy one check out outmotoring great aftermarket shop for enthusiast owners :) 

No wide body? No thanks. 

Always front wheel drive FYI.

It is odd that BMW has built a car that appeals to 2 different populations:

I though the FF was the new breadvan?

If you look at their business model the majority is from projects for other manufacturers.  The car sales business is a small part of the engineering business.  

I have always read about the turning radius and it baffles me. Why can’t the front wheels turn more? There isn’t anything between them just let the darn wheels turn.

Louvers need to make a comeback.

Thoughts on what cars these guys drive?

What made the original design work was the driver being so far out of the top of the car.  A modern production car will never be able to re-create that :( 

Or people could just buy a used Corvette, some jorts, and a pair of new balances. 

So a Corvette?

Looks at Fiero, looks at your claim of investment in engineering, looks back at Fiero. Dude just take the front subframe and slide it to the back, this isn’t hard.

The thing that bothers me most is the say Jeep SUV. Do they make anything else? Are they implying that a Wrangler is the only true Jeep and the others are just garbage with a Jeep name? 

I could see him sticking around for at least a year in the new cars.  Adding a championship under different rules would give him more legacy.  Or he might end up in a terrible car and taint his legacy.  He and George on a team together would be pretty cool.
