They do sound amazing! It’s a real shame that poor engine design makes the Audis cheap...until it’s time to fix them. I guess that’s where the saying, “A cheap Audi will be the most expensive car you will ever own” comes from.

Drive did a video of a sweet turbo 348 that made me love them. Aside from the wheels, it looks like this one is a decent car. The wheels are bad enough, though, that I would purchase the car and swap the wheels on the spot, telling the seller to keep them.

I could tell just by looking at the thumbnail that it was an R8 and within the first second or two that it was a V8 car. We are obsessed.

Jesus will take the wheel.

That has always baffled me as well. Wheels make or break the look of a car, sort of equated to a person’s teeth in a way. They could have the hottest body and face, but buck teeth would be enough to turn most people away unless there was an intention to fix it.

You have a point there, but the only way those wheels could be more tasteless was if they were spinners.

1) That steering wheel is a blight on an an otherwise good-looking vehicle (inside and out).

If I’m thinking of the same guy you’re referring to, he did that to a German pilot who had done it to numerous Allied airmen when they bailed out.

I'm so glad to hear you say that because I think the exact same way.

*insert retards saying “durrrrrr, pushrods are bad”* Meanwhile, the LS/LT architecture are among the best mass-produced (those words are key) motors on sale and the Bentley 6.75 produces diesel levels of torque on gasoline.

Yeah, and you can only go 300 miles in 12 hours because you have to recharge. Electric power makes it so your grand touring car purpose-built for crossing great distances in speed and comfort (that also makes a great noise when you get on it) gets completely neutered.

The sticker would add 5 HP by itself, wouldn’t it?

Obviously you don’t want to do it with an expensive vehicle (that’s just dumb because they’ll see right through you), but it does work for cheap cars and the state really has no way (other than somehow finding out) to determine what you actually paid for it unless you tell them, which in some cases you have no…

Huh. Guess it varies from state to state. Nice Skylark! You don’t see those too often.

You can drastically reduce the sales tax by buying used from a private seller and telling the notary you paid a couple hundred bucks for it (say it needs a motor, etc.). You’re still paying the tax, so Uncle Sam’s little brother is off your back and you’re saving yourself several hundred, if not a few thousand…

The Crimson Chin is designing cars now? Huh.

People will assume it’s broken down, and then be surprised when they see it running before it breaks down.

Ferrari and Lamborghini do have awesome fit and finish now (particularly compared to past models). They also offer incredible driving experiences, which no Tesla does. Fit and finish is the only leg Tesla has to stand on and they couldn’t get that right, even in what is essentially a $150,000 minivan (which made my…

Tesla is, as the Brits would say, “a bit shit."

To be fair, it doesn’t look like it’s really sure how it’s able to fly either.
