It's important not to confuse platform-sharing with mere "badge-engineering." Badge-engineering is often hilarious while platform sharing is often shocking - perhaps because of its subtlety.

To all of you who say that the Blues Brothers isn't the best American car movie of all time: Shame on you!

I've found that LM and other sorts of GT-car racing series are more popular amongst "car people" than F1. There's just more technical diversity and connection to varying road cars with LM/GT. I think of F1 as much more of a sport than anything else, considering the amount of physical training those guys put…

This just might be the ultimate hipster car: "oh, me? I drive a Rover. You've probably never heard of that kind of car." At the same time, it's basically a Honda Civic, so actually owning it should be a relatively cheap and simple endeavor.

My Dad bought a new car last month - which is amazing when you consider it's something he only does once every twenty years. Oh, and he bought a Subaru too.

Aren't most new cars in Oceania hideously expensive? I'd heard a new Camaro SS costs about the same as a new Maserati GranTurismo in those parts...

That looks great. It's all fine-and-dandy...except...the CLA is not a GT car. I don't think any GT race rules would allow for its entry. I think DTM would be the only option, but then Merc already has a car for that. I'm really a little confused by this whole exercise.

Just look at the methods to which people in the U.S. have to stoop because of the lack of an effective transit system!

"Breadvan" is just a nickname. The real name is probably the most badass name ever given to a car: The "GT Drogo"

The other day I was stopped at a red light with a V8S. I asked the guy to wind it up so I could hear it properly. OMG. That car makes a better noise than any 21st Century car has the right to. I didn't really get what all the fuss over the F-Type was about until I saw and HEARD it in person. Their is no doubt in my…

A LOT has to be done with the suspension and weight before anyone would really consider it an affordable, sporting coupe. Hopefully the next generation will see that change.

I think he means a "21.1st Century Ford GT"

V6 Mustang vs. anything else. It's like saying "I can reduce this to an argument in which the 0-60 time of that car is bested by a lumbering rental car, and therefore the lumbering rental car is better."

The earliest I could find was Audi, from October 29, 1996. I was six, SIX YEARS OLD. I couldn't even read properly at this point in my life.

Aren't drum brakes more difficult to work on, though?

I was scrolling through the comments, and I was surprised this wasn't all the way at the top. Only need to wait a few more years before we can import one...

That was there this year? Dang, I'm a little bummed I didn't go this year...

Having seen cars take this corner before, it doesn't look as though there was anything wrong with his racing line. If anything, he either hit a damp portion of the track and/or opened-up the throttle a little bit too much a little bit too early.

What makes aviation gasoline different from your garden-variety, automotive gasoline?

Yeah, if you want to spend $$$$$. Otherwise, take them to a good local shop and only pay $$$
