Going by this thought process, the next few Gymkhana cars should be:

BMWs & tire pressure

Biggest bang for the buck mod right out of the factory would probably be: better brake pads + stainless brake lines + better tires.

At least that “normal” steering wheel will rumble...

Buy a Vision-S, get a free PS5... They won’t be able  to keep up with the demand on that damn car.

Imagine if Volkswagon would ever grew enough guts to bring the Golf R Variant to the US. Practicality & Fun in the same box.

Subaru NA should just introduce a lifted Levorg as the next gen Crosstrack. 

Peking Duck

Boba the Fett.... sounds like a new drink, with ample amounts of macha & espresso.

I think it’s not out of the realm of possibility for Honda to only offer an Integra Type-R for this generation of Civic/Integra in North America.

Also the abundance of photo speed cameras everywhere makes the need for higher speed moot.

The upgrade is done via software. The local Ford updated Focus & Kuga ST-Line for 2021 that’s nothing more than Sync4 and new wheels. A bunch of existing owners complained and was given the Sync4 software upgrade for free.

1,2,3 are all confirmed via Ford UK announcement. 

TSMC reported 2 weeks ago they no longer have a larger than normal backlog for automotive ICs, and that the shortage down stream has them suspecting someone(s) along the supply chain is hording chips.....

Euro only Fords are still mostly assembled locally, but a lot of the parts are imported from China.

Sync 3 in the current gen Fords can be updated to Sync 4 at the dealer. At least that’s being offered here in Taiwan.

New Focus Active wagon will be available with 1)48volt hybrid system, 2) AWD, and 3)7spd DCT.

Having test drove both current gen Focus Active and Kuga, I can say with certainty the Focus Active has a much better driving/riding experience, and would be my choice between the 2.

Having driven my Focus ST wagon for 3 month after ownership of 2 Subarus (SH Forester XT, GC Impreza STi), I am totally glad I made the switch, and will probably never go back to another Subaru again.

I’d like to see him try to navigate this behemoth through most parts of Asia.
