I understand that FWD isn’t a turnoff for some people. A lot of my friends who once drove 600whp Cobras bought Focus ST’s for daily drivers because they were cheap and fun. If Ford had styled the ST up a bit more, gave it 300hp and priced it in the mid 30's (basically a FWD RS), I highly doubt any of those guys would…

Oh. Well that makes the gif a LOT less impressive.

Right?! Was that a typo or a slight joke? Or does he only use natural chemicals, rainwater, and ancient chinese mining techniques to unearth his stones?

Why do these buttons need their own hub? To control the different types of presses? Why not make an app on the existing smart home systems to control the buttons? I have an Aeotec minimote with 4 buttons on it that are programmable to control basically anything through an app on SmartThings.

I’ll agree with Arrivederci on this one. The Type R styling is a bit more over the top, so it’d be harder to justify to a 35 year old. Plus I think the price point is just too high for a FWD car. Everything else in that range has AWD and anything FWD sells for almost $10k less. And for me, the AWD isn’t about putting…

Maybe he just murders every camera man that catches him spinning out during a drift. Check out the last Grand Tour episode where they showed outtakes of the hosts spinning out cars on the track. Chris probably makes sure any footage of him looping a car gets deleted instantly and threatens the family members of all…

You should always know that any engine in a street legal car probably has 10% more power left in it due to emissions equipment and reliability factors.

Do some research man. The dude owns quite a few Ferraris and has proven many times he can drive them wherever he wants. Check out “yonly65" on IG...

I had this same scenario happen yesterday in the midst of this ‘winter storm’ we just had. It had snowed/iced about 2 inches, some roads being snow covered, others just slushy and mostly wet. While driving down a wet, very slightly slushy 3 lane road, I passed a cop who was doing around 30 in the fast lane surrounded…

Thanks for chiming in, Ben. This proves that even the pinnacle of high performance “road” cars still can’t hold a candle to a well built race car. It amazes me how much aero makes a difference.

How do you live in a place that rural with a driveway that long that gets that much snow and not have a truck or at least a SxS with a plow??

What I would give for that much land that gets that much snow. I’ll trade you for my current 10' long driveway not big enough to park a car in that is currently covered in maybe…

Not to mention the prices just drastically dropped and supply is higher than ever. The dealer down the street from me was selling these at 1-2k over sticker last year and usually had only one on the lot. Now they have 7 in stock and all of them are 3-4k below MSRP.

Personally, there is just something about the…

My main question is how much of that aero styling is actually functional and backed up by data? Since the car is so track focused, I assume at least the wing is functional? What about all the little vortex generators and intakes in the grille and exits in the fenders, hood scoop, diffuser, etc??? Or did they just…

Styled the car to appease a 20 year old. Too bad 99% of them can’t afford it.

So the R-line might have basically the Golf R drivetrain. In a vehicle that is more spacious on the inside and better looking on the outside? This is relevant to my interests...

The wheels are a different design.

No, not particularly. Nothing else went up drastically enough to stick out. Maybe milk went up like a nickel? I dunno where you are going with this.

Please show me these magical cheap flights. I live near DC, so I have 3 major airports to choose from when I want to go anywhere. I just got back from Salt Lake City and my flight was over $400, plus another $25 each way for my snowboard. A few months ago, my wife used points to fly to San Diego to visit some friends.…

Remember when gas/oil prices went up really high and flight prices skyrocketed because of it? And they crammed more seats on planes and charged us heavy fees for bags? Then fuel/oil prices dropped drastically and the flight prices never went down and fees never went away? Fuck everything about the airlines.

Dude. Who gives a shit about the position of the shifter if there is an indicator light physically on the knob tell you what gear you’re in? Mechanical shifters have the exact same indicator. Seems to be the BMW and other shifters are far worse than FCA. At least my shifter has the normal PRND configuration in a…
