Much to the chagrin of (apparently) most jalopnik readers... I’m not arguing that my car is faster/better. Carry on.

The fact a 2017 $40,000 focus didn’t already a front LSD is the point. You can continue to talk about my 14 year old $18,000 vehicle if you wish. I do like talking about it but it does little to counter the original point.

You’ve never driven a V6 Accord.

“I’ve yet to drive a turbo car I’m moved by. They’re all kinda bland.”

The V10 in a standard piston engine available in [the] Audi R8—not that exotic by my standards.

No. Only that they come out and race vintage at some of our club’s races.

Have Exige with supercharged K24 swap. Can confirm. Is fast.

They are fine on the road.

They didn’t either for me until I drove one. Coming from a Mk2 MR2 I was already prejudiced against the cutesy convertible, but one spin (not literally) and I was sold.

You must possess that magic “just” wrench my wife thinks I have. “Can’t you JUST swap the motor?” “ why don’t you JUST fix the transmission?”

These cars have don’t absolutely nothing for me, from the day they rolled off the assembly line. I’ve seen them around, and fragments of my memory say that one of my neighbors, once, had one...however I’ve never given them a second look.

They’re glorious on a mountain road. In fact, they’re better mountain road cars than track cars (there is a difference).

indeed it does exist.
and so does the RX7.

its the little things in life that make it worth living.

Sure, but like, reach that conclusion based on evidence at the end of exhausting all other potentially feasible options. If anything it speaks to the complete lack of business savvy or insight that most start-up executives (or clueless grads vying for said positions) seemingly possess.

Wondering, on a very abstract level, if it was a sabotage effort by a competitor is not necessarily out of sorts. The fact of the matter is false accusations of all sorts of crimes happen for all sorts of reasons. There’s a reason every civilized country has some form of due process, even if some aren’t as strong as

In an era where we can basically print engines, how is it possible that Honda (of all companies) can’t seem to make a powerful, reliable engine? I’m mystified by this. I realize that things like “design” and “ergonomics” are subjective, and as a result, street cars sometimes don’t sell well. But an engine is an
