Patrick, thank you for continuing to write without hyperbole and self importance. That is all.

Who will build the "lighthouse"? Oh. Audi will? That's great. Now, neither you nor I have to buy one we can just follow people who did. Thanks Obama.

BUT OH MY GOD THOSE EXHAUSTS. If the Porsche 918 makes every car have top-mounted exhausts, then it should go down as one of the greatest cars in history (if it won't already). Top mounted exhausts are the best innovation to come out of Porsche since the company first made a Porsche.

It's such a snorty, snarly shape. I love it. The proportions are kind of great and the side panels are unfussy. That's rare. Niggles? Well, the door handles are more modern than I'd like and the dash is also pretty future-boring.

How until someone says it looks like an Accord?

Beetle fastback. I remember think they were cool when they were new though. Time is funny.

Was going to mention that you can't autocross them in SCCA, but you got it covered. Saw that in the back of the rule book last year. Wondered why considering all that are okay...trucks even. Roll-over makes sense.

Nice catch. There is also another "F14T" already:
