Yeah I'd think this would be the evolution of the Q45. The first years of that car were so beautiful. Then it kind of lost some of its mystique and awe. I'm totally confused if this is the replacement for a G-series car.

...which is an option, but that's not what we're talking about soooo... yeah. Go drive one before you comment. Then you may understand.
Exactly! I had to respond to his comment as well. It didn't make any sense. I'm happy I'm not the only one who agrees here.
The DCT M3, when in manual mode, is incapable of shifting its gears without user input. It will remain in the selected gear all the way to redline where the limiter will cut the rpm's. Your premise doesn't quite stand up to reason. Also, the automatic transmissions that most people are familiar with were often mated…
Please oh please figure out a way to do the doors like the original!
My favorite use for homemade chili oil? Use it to make popcorn on the stovetop. After it's popped add some salt (I use Flavacol because delicious) and some grated parmesan cheese. Oh Jesus now I'm hungry.
Anyone catch how flimsy those doors are when you open them? What do you do when you snap the door hinge off your $3.7M "supercar" just by leaning on it wrong? Dry your tears with all your piles of cash?
It reminds me of a ski boat's burble in the water at idle. Very much a burble, actually. Good description. It's a beautiful sound. And nothing wakes up the driver next to you not paying attention than a spirited downshift from 2nd to 1st. It still gives an adrenaline rush.
Actually, you're both right. I've pulled back the leather behind the seats in my V8 Vantage and found ford stickers on the aluminum chassis. In addition, the stereo and NAV is Volvo - at least in the 2009 models. Another interesting fact - the Ford GT Brembo brakes are the same as what's on the Vantage and I'm sure…
It's possible, but every German I've met has actually a very good grasp of the English language. And any advertising coming from MB would most likely filter through MB-NA here in the states. I wish it were true, but I think it was just snobbery in it's undiluted form.
I am a gay man, and that my friend was a bull dyke. Your assessment would be right on the mark. : )
"In combination with the standard LED Intelligent Light System, unique headlamps with no fewer than 47 Swarovski crystals are available. 17 angular crystals form the flare-shaped daytime running lamps, with 30 round-shaped crystals making up the turn indicator lamps."
I digress, and I also don't mean to rag on the seller of the car. Perhaps they are a little overenthused about their car's big screen role, but it is certainly exciting. Besides, Alfa Spiders of this vintage are rather lovely things, a claim I can verify since I owned one. Sure they're unreliable, the electronics…
That's really amazing. I loved math as a kid, and throughout school I was quite great at it. But I would never believe that math could accurately plot a course from a spot on Earth to a spot on the moon. Or better yet - getting Voyager through the reaches of our solar system, slingshotting around planets for…
I've always loved these little SUVs. They get a second or third glance from me every time I see one. It looked like the Nissan Juke tried to jump on the weird headlight bandwagon and got hit with ugly sticks repeatedly.
As much power as a calculator from 10 years ago, actually. Our phones could womp all over the lunar lander's systems.
You can find about 25 in the US for 30k up to about 80k for the '05. But there's just something about the original with the popup headlights. Gotta love that.
HA! I LOL'd at that one. It'll save you the trouble of doing it yourself at the kids' soccer practice.
I agree with your point. I love Porsche. We have an older 911. But they're becoming as commonplace as Accords around here. I saw a Stingray yesterday and I caught myself doing a doubletake. It is really stunning. And I'll be the first to admit I'm not a fan of American car. But in this case, I think they have a…
