I imagine it has a semi-independent beam rear suspension, which would involve a suspension redesign to fit AWD.

Haha mebe.... I just like the small bit of irony in a lowered/tuned/etc car with a car costume on it.

"and doing there own thing." ..their own thing? #corrections

Heres my car.

At the beginning cumberbatch sounds very patrick stewart-y...

We used to read Asterix in my high school French class.

I just cant stand BMW's new pinched face styling

Yeah. Surprisingly I remember reading that he didn't have a full race-spec cage in there because they couldn't afford it or something.

Yes! I really want a new-ish samsung LED tv just because the base reminds me of a Basestar

I totally thought that this was Chris Harris until they showed him talking.

It seems to keep the citroen-esque styling of its platform mate.

I do. Thats why I use thunderbird. My 6 emails all in one spot.

This reminds me of the mk6 Jetta fiasco. Except VW saw that it sold like hotcakes and pretty much told auto journalists to take a hike.

How exactly is the unlocked iPhone5 more expensive than an iPad?

It would make me so happy to know that in 2,000 years someones going to be poking through my shit...

True. But things are different when you are in your own car (a car you're probably paying $500+/month on). I consider myself an enthusiast. And when my friends and I go out "hooning" we don't go and do doughnuts in a parking lot. We go to the drag strip. Or drive fast down some curvy roads. I put way too much…

I agree it can be a hindrance. But nowhere in the video does he go and drive a track with good technique and say "wow this esp is hindering my track times". He just says "waaah I cant slide around". It probably doesn't help that I find him irritating lol.

Nope it was fully paved (we went to the PPIHC this year) so that shows how much of a wimp I am lol.

I don't really get a sense that the lack of defetable stability control is that big of a problem from this video. He just seems to incessantly complain about not being able to slide the Golf R around the track like an idiot.

Are you sure this isnt the escape? Could it have more wheel gap?
