I have many favorite V12's: classic Jaguars and Ferraris, the always beautiful AMG 7.3L, and classic Lamborghinis. Yes, the newer creations are just as nice, but their less elegant in appearance. Also, while I love Aston Martin's, I hate that this guy decided to commit treason and murder and use an Aston Martin V12

99 Cayenne's at the bottom of the sea,

Pagani Huayra - "Side-view mirrors; designed to mimic a woman's eyes..." I just can't get behind the designs; stunning; yes: Attractive in MY eyes; no. Call me a stickler for design, but there's more than a few angles where this 'beauty' looks more like a 'beast.' The materials get me twice as hard as the overall

First, I'd spend a week simply staring at the car in the paddock. Then I'd pop it into D, as the pit crew pulled the tire warmers off (no way in hell I'd do it on comfy road tires), and get down to business. 1-lap rundown with Aston's key test driver for pointers and to sort out his comfort level that the Brit's

Hahaha, I saw that too! LOL. My wife looked at me and said "Did they just fail that hard on International TV?"

I'll stay current and go with Kimi Raikkonen. He's the bomb and I'll see him during tomorrow's F1 practice at Circuit of the Americas in Austin. :-)

This is why we should abolish the phrase "Lesser of two evils."

Most definitely, the Porsche 918's Weissach Package. You get less, for more. Much more. How much more you ask? $84,000. Grand total for the new hybrid uber-ride = $929,000 + TTL.

I love that they're racing the Abarthe's. Those cars turn and burn on the track. Older models with less HP have been recorded on the Nurburgring tailing 360 Modena's. Their lightweight and great balance allows them to go faster into corner, brake later, and maintain high speeds through S-bends than most similarly

It's LEGAL. Plus if everyone either rode motorcycles or drove decently sized cars, we'd have a LOT LESS TRAFFIC. Traffic is dangerous for a motorcyclist; no A/C or protection from the elements. In tight spots a cyclist could risk heat stroke from lack of air flow or even asphyxiation from possible asthmatic reactions

It's not about turning lap times, it's about engagement in the experience of driving. Using a manual transmission places the human as an integral component of the drivetrain; creating a bio-mechanical machine in a sense. Using paddles, or driving around with Lexus like detachment from said driving experience, will

I'd drive it from the Ushuaia - Malvinas Argentinas International Airport in Ushuaia, Argentina to Prudhoe Bay, AK. It's called the Pan-American Highway and it's an astounding 29,800 miles of incomprehensibly complex roadway systems spanning two continents. Ferrari has done it; so the BRZ should surely be able to go

I hate seeing so many Car-B-Q's happening so close to one another.

Try my new Texas Aphirita. Your standard fair Margarita, Triple Bleu Cheese Stuffed Olives, with the misty anal sprinkles coating the rim of your favorite glass.

Agreed.

If they hire you, I'll come on board to handle domestic and international marketing...it's the name of my game and I would LOVE to work in the automotive industry with a marquee as reputable as Lotus!

I live here in Austin and the 130toll is absolutely glorious. It's wide, empty, flat in most places, you can see for miles ahead of you, and is a place where you can set the cruise control at 85+ and never worry about having to slow down. In fact, I've only ever seen one cop out there and on that day as he was part of

I dig his ninja style; I wonder if he has a Twitter handle.

Why'd my comment disappear?

"That'll do donkey, that'll do."
