Unfortunately, I’m afraid that (if Ford didn’t already know about this) you almost certainly just put this dealership in an impossible position with Ford, who is going to have to ask it to remove the SVT and Lightning badging in order to avoid adverse impacts against its trademarks on those brands.

Car was a loss. But, any adult needs to have judgment enough not to destroy something of someone else’s just because it’s a total loss. Now, this guy probably will.

Please don’t nitpick shit like this on a Friday.

This is the kindest thing they’ve done for Volvo in, well, ever. What a nice thing to do!

This behavior should not be rewarded with $125k.

540 hp to 2700 lbs.... the C&C spectators don’t stand a chance.

Yes. I actually thought this was a Mazda at first. Even the TVR badge looks similar in this lighting.

Agreed. Seems like it will be a fusion of Lexus and FR-S that ends up being ... a slightly different looking Z with a turbo engine. I mean, not that that is so terrible. But also not super exciting unless it’s quite a bit more affordable than it probably will be, or quite a bit more powerful than it seems like it…

No good deed . . .

The bigger issue is that well before the lineup of droids got to this level of complexity, they clearly would have gained autonomy and killed us all, a la Terminator.

Yes. I didn’t know of this one until I saw it at the Revs Institute in Naples, FL, and thought for sure it was going to be a Ferrari or something Italian until I got up close and saw the badge. Turns out its styling influenced the Ferrari Dino, which you can understand especially well when you see it in Red (I think…

Wow, that was especially cruel of you to put the 904 right after that 984. The 984 is no looker on a good day, but followed by the 904 . . . unfortunate.

I hear this all the time, but I just can’t figure it out. I don’t doubt that it’s true, because EVERYONE says this. However, I can’t figure out how it could be true, because to find the limits on my car (328xi) shod with high performance all-seasons, I literally have to be driving like a damned madman. Wink-wink…

I’d love to see this same test comparing the high performance summers to high performance all-seasons. To me, if you are finding the limits on a set of high performance all-seasons (hell, even decent grand touring all-seasons), you’re driving like you robbed a bank.

I wager she’ll be a top draft pick for the Harvard SAE team.

He nearly connected the two hills!

Agreed. In fact, I liked most of the other prototypes I saw better than what they did go with. Don’t get me wrong, I love a lot of the new angles on the Miata. But, for me, if there is one common thread running between each generation, it’s that it’s always been almost there on looks, but with some design element I…

Any reason why they have such narrow tires on it, and no difference in width between the fronts and rears anymore? I am not one of these nuts who thinks a lot about wheels (I abhor “stancing” for example), but these wheels looked like they were tucked into the bodywork more than I recalled, and it’s bugging me. …

Pretty cool. Also, from that vantage point, it looks a whole hell of a lot faster.
