I’m not gonna lie, that looks fucking fantastic. It’s a little less successful on the Sport, but this should’ve been advertised from launch. 

Ha! Centimeters. The metric system is the tool of the devil!

I know you are trying hard to remember the concepts from high school physics.

The stock motor is the worst part of a 308. I’m 100% fine with this. Unless it’s a 12 cylinder manual from the 70s or earlier, a 288 or F40, hack the fuck away.

Taking too long? Heh, the guys at Bad Obsession Motorsports with their near decade long Project Binky scoff at your impatience...

Does this include their F1 vehicles? Cause that would explain Leclerc sucking balls this year

On the other hand, I feel like when EVs and autonomous vehicles are mainstream and objectively superior vehicles, all the new ICE cars left will be enthusiast vehicles where people are buying them for the experience. In that case they are much more likely to also want a manual transmission.

The people buying cars as

Now is the time to seriously look at buying a ‘forever manual sportscar’. Because new manual sportscars are dying. And used manual sportscars in good condition are going to appreciate in value.

Counterpoint, everything you mentioned here is why it deserved better. Last of the bare bones sports car. Didn’t adapt to force dinduction/smaller engines. Focused on function over form (especially on the track focused ones with all of the wings). Only reason they stopped selling them was because of the mandatory side

Remember when we thought $10k markup was insane? 

I dunno man. This car definitely deserved the shade it got. Ford COULD have done those things, but chose not to. This car had no redeeming qualities.

They should offer one with a 80 kWh battery and two electric motors called a Mad Manx.

A90 Supra.

Ford Focus RS was basically killed because nobody was going to pay $10k of stealership markup. So Ford couldn’t move as many units then killed the whole thing.

Without a doubt, the Chevy SS. Never marketed, hidden away from the public, and they couldn’t even be bothered to give it a real name. The only reason we got it stateside was so GM could deliver on its promise to the Aussies to export a certain amount.

We know he has a fleet of interesting things for doing whatever. But i totally get the daily something boring to keep stress down. What do you prove against a smart car?

It’s going to be a Wankel rotary whose eccentric shaft is matted to an electric motor which uses a planetary reduction gear to match up the powerbands of the different motors.

f1 world champion Nico Rosberg. show some respect.

750cc single-cylinder diesel two-stroke with 8 turbos coupled to an electric motor that somehow generates 3000 hp 

I hope its a turbine powered electric generator. That would be hilarious.
