You’re entitled to your opinion. I find quiet straight line speed boring. I find AMG cars entertaining. 

TBH half the appeal of an AMG is the noise. The future sounds (no pun intended) boring. 

“We can’t control buyer behavior, so we’ll just stop making shit people want”

Because you want one. 

Well yeah, because they won’t give you as many cars to crash. 

Sorry, that scenario was too frightening! I couldn’t take any chances.

No, you can stay at the CJDR lot, they have plenty of old platforms for you to choose from!

No, they’re just parroting the commonly circlejerked opinions on here without realizing that they conflict.

It happens more than you’d think. The GT86 is also underpowered but with the perfect amount of power.

Are you ok?

Just feel I need to ask if you’re considering trading a glorious RWD boat for a Dart. 

So roll your eyes when people say that and move on with your life. If you said this to someone’s face, you’d look like an asshole. It may feel better to say it as a faceless commenter, but I assure you, you still kinda sound like an asshole. 

I do that all the time (sort of).

The bluetooth in my Miata is so useless because of the road noise that people hear me better if I put my phone on speaker and lay it on the center console. Don’t have to hold the phone but I do need to briefly grab it to switch it over. I do it in the GTI too because it’s a bit windy

I don’t think the Viper failed because it stuck to its original concept. That original concept was kinda the whole point of the vehicle. Turning a Viper into a turbo V8 or something would have removed a lot of appeal.

Giant N/A V10 with a sports car built around it was never a concept that was going to survive higher

That dude’s entire account is hot takes. 

Not in real life, I just tend to get a lot of virtue signaling comments online (mostly here, ironically) when I say I’m going to stick to my gas-powered 35 MPG sports car as long as I can, and that I don’t want autonomy. I must not give a shit about the environment or pedestrians like everyone else does!

And I still

It’s not so much that they want to know anything about you, but that they’re casually trying to monetize your life without your knowledge. 

Solution: Drive like an absolute maniac to see who’s following you and lose them. For privacy!

Unfortunately the excessive bolstering of seats has made it difficult to beat your kids from the drivers seat

Autonomous cars = captive audience ready to engage with dynamic marketing. Have some interactive touchscreen ads!

Kill me. 

I can live with this future, but I’m hoping if it’s gonna happen it happens quick. I already feel like I’m under fire and I drive a friggin Miata. Although that’s probably because I come to Jalopnik for my car news lol. 

I know this is a weird take, but it helps me sleep at night:

I like to think that we’ll eventually have the technology to make electric cars feel and sound like our favorite gas powered cars from the past (at least from the drivers’ perspective). Think augmented reality for cars.

The reality may just be that people who
