Absolutely not. I love this little thing and I would gladly give it a home if I could.

Based on the shape of that shut line and the crease above the badge, I’m going with Fusion ST, which might be interesting.

I’ve owned two of them, plus one Audi. I’m..... not a fast learner.

Put some orange calipers on that violet one and...

I used to live in that horrible fucking town. The Rockford Scanner website is more or less representative of the entire place.

That’s fucking horrible. It definitely looks worse in a light color.

Most people in Oregon (at least in Portland) have no business even being behind the wheel of an automobile, never mind pumping their own gas. This is a bigger deal than you think.

Unfortunately, that’s pretty much what it looks like.

...which is exactly why I stay off the roads when it snows. Unfortunately, not everyone has that option.

You’ve obviously never been here when it does snow. It’s fucking pandemonium. Folks around these parts tend to be shitty drivers to begin with, then you’ve got a bunch of people with Outbacks who think that AWD makes them invincible, plus like half the people who live here are from California and have zero concept of

I know it’s not the car’s fault, but...

I do like Sepang, but that was built before the whole “Tilkedrome” trend started. I think Bahrain was the beginning of the new era of super boring F1 courses.

Funny you mention the Bentayga, because when I saw the Urus, my first thought was “I wonder how many Bentayga sales this thing is going to cannibalize”.

You’re probably right, but to my eye, it just looks like the design was completely phoned in. Like, someone just started with a generic crossover from a stock photo site, then put some pointy bits on it, threw some superfluous vents on the front end, gave it angular wheel arches, and tossed some Lambo badges on it.

Horrible color combinations aside, I just cannot get past how little thought appears to have gone into that design. If not for the Lamborghini badge, there’s nothing about it that says “Lamborghini”, at least not on the outside. The interior is a little better, but overall it’s just a shameless, uninspired cash grab,

I was not aware of that... interesting. I’ve always seen the design credited to Tilke. I should have known that it wasn’t all his design, because there’s actually some elevation change, whereas pretty much all of his other tracks are mostly flat with no real interesting corners or natural features.

I actually went to the VW dealer with the intent of buying a Carbon Steel Gray GTI, but when I got to the dealership, they had a blue Sport with the DSG and I fell in love. Drove it home that afternoon. Shitty picture taken in my parking garage, but I really like this color.

This is almost exactly what I said when I saw the title of the article. Basically every track that Tilke has designed since Bahrain has been boring and severely lacking in personality. COTA isn’t too bad, but the rest of them are garbage in my opinion.

That would be the logical take, but if logic was dude’s forte, he probably wouldn’t be driving a Lamborghini in the first place.

Holy shit.
