Not sure this would happen for the 911. There is precedent in classic cars for companies to provide shells/chassis, obviously. But, the 911? I think the people paying thru the nose for 993 and earlier cars aren’t going to want their investments potentially devalued. Maybe that won’t happen but I see Porsche being very…

I get that NASCAR is looked at as a lower form of racing due to its very predictable track format. But, I would also say that if that’s the measuring stick for being considered advanced racing or not, then drag racing is even lower on the totem pole since most of what you see is just overly supercharged/turbo’d mega…

Finally, an abomination to unite the warring factions.

I’m trying to think of a recent CP more CP than this, but I’m not coming up with one. Maybe the $60k Vanagon, MAYBE.

Hell no, Panteras are quite pricey here. Good ones will touch $100k, and 10 years ago they were firmly in the $50-70k range. Used to know a guy that had one as his pride and joy.

Singapore is the same way. It is STUPID expensive to operate cars in those places. Makes me laugh when my fellow Americans complain about registration fees, fuel taxes, etc. here. It costs me maybe $2k a year to drive my car after fuel, insurance, reg, etc. In HK it’s 12X that much. The goverments in HK and Singapore…

I don’t know that there’s enough context here to say the Vette owner parked “like an asshole”. I can’t see anything to the left of where the video starts, other than a Huracan which, if the Vette is parked like an asshole, the Lambo owner probably was, too. But I notice the truck owner probably wasn’t man enough to…

Your perspective is clearly colored by falsehoods, creating a false perception. “Forcefully taking money from people”? This is hyper-libertarian pablum. Please explain how you would pay for the operations of a modern country. Taxes are a necessary aspect of a functioning society. There is no country of any stripe,…

Watts is full of sh!7. He lacks the education and know-how to do actual climate science. He’s been out of meteorology for a really long time, making him no longer credible in a job he even used to hold. That goes double for all the other denialist blogs like poptech, all of whom link to each other as if spouting anger…

$68,000?

I think this truck has pretty much always been Toyota’s worst example of badge engineering. Say what you want about all the Corolla-based Scions, at least there was a general lack of expectations for those products. In this case, the LX has always been a rebadged LC. And is there really anything that separates the two…

At least he wasn’t this guy:

Car show staples that will be summarily walked off a cliff at rifle point if I ever become president:

This car is the definition of 80s German luxury style. No question it’s an NP.

Done to protect the engine. Many modern cars cannot be rev’d to redline while in park. I have a Dodge minivan that limits revs to about 4200 while parked.

Alright, so the top 3 cars people should be legally disallowed from peeling out in are:

Would that be the automotive equivalent of a tramp stamp?

God no.

NP if it’s a project platform. But you’d have to mod most major systems to make the thing into a great driver, i.e. suspension, engine, and transmission. If you can swap in an EVO AWD system, all the better.

The plural of “anecdote” is not “data”. Your anecdote may be true, but that doesn’t invalidate the somewhat different experience of countless other current and former BMW owners.
