The analog tach is a great touch, front and center like it should be!

A couple of Nissan SR20 motors will pull a premium a week before Race Wars, huh Ted?
Also, Brian’s Eclipse in the movie was not a factory turbocharged car, either. It clearly has the Chrysler 420A engine in it. Why they spent “$80,000" building up a non-turbo Eclipse is beyond me, especially when they could have started with a GSX and had AWD to boot (and it would have cost them a lot less than 80…
Oh yeah, I love too when they get the beat up Supra on the flatbed, and pop the hood when Jesse says “2JZ, no shit!” because all MKIV Supras came with 2JZs, and the one in the movie is a non-turbo.
“The Fast and the Furious” is car culture’s version of the 1995 movie “Hackers”. You know going into them that they’re not going to be accurate, realistic depictions of their subject matter, but stylized Hollywood approaches, and if you can accept it, cheese and all, they’re shitloads of fun (“Hackers” is my favorite…
they all go out in the first 2 hours and complete 300 laps, something insane. then they all break down and and end up on the side of the track. over the next 22 hours someone does 301 laps. HE WINS.
No, it just means your reading comprehension sucks.
Why did you recommend my post? Get your own gimmick, noob.
Here, have a star. Happy now?
That not a technicality - that a smart rule, to prevent exactly just that, limping in on your final lap.
You can call it a technicality, but then, by definition, every other rule is a technicality.
I miss the days of the late 90s and early 2000's when you had 8 liter Vipers and 7 liter Vettes running and it was no big deal.
Nope, Boxter isn’t written anywhere on this car. Or any Boxter for that matter, because it’s Boxster, not Boxter.
I traveled to Los Angeles with one girlfriend, a lot of luggage, and Jalopnik’s entire arsenal of camera gear stuffed into a 2016 Porsche Boxster Spyder, and I can’t recommend doing it any other way.
It sounds to me like you’re projecting pretty hard right now.
My point is that all of these needless aids make bad drivers even lazier, and does not address the root of the problem, which is pathetically incompetent drivers that are, for whatever reason, allowed to operate vehicles on public roads.
Your attention-seeking is annoying. Go bother someone else.
Way to fail to comprehend the point.
Yep, the more realistic would be flying into or through the glass while your buckled in loved ones get to watch you die in front of them
When I was a kid, well before I could get a license, my parents used to let me move the cars around if one was blocking the other. They had always made me wear my seat belt in the car, so I got into the habit of putting it on whenever I’d move them, even though I was only moving them maybe 20 or 30 feet, on a private…
