You’re kidding, right? Ford and Chevy spend tons on marketing those cars. Plus, those are nameplates that have been around for decades - decades! Just going to any recent auto show would’ve shown you how prominently those cars were displayed - own dedicated stands. Camaro had the whole Transformers tie in, and the…

They’re selling poorly because of poor marketing (who has seen ANY ads for any of the twins?) and because dealerships have no idea how to sell it - there are countless stories of salespeople having no clue that the cars are RWD (not AWD), not turbo’d, etc. etc.

One of the largest business centers on the entire east coast is Tysons Corner (which is the real reason the Silver Line was built, to serve Tysons. Dulles Airport is just a bonus). Numerous other companies have built up a presence along the Dulles Toll Road. Something DC-area Jalops should know: VW / Audi North…

The Dulles Access Road is free and traffic-free.

Per the article in the magazine, the Porsche was owned by Porsche North America, thought it was a car off the production line. Porsche also had reps present at the track.

Did you read the MotorTrend article? They had multiple laps, and they also had battery recharge laps in between to make sure that the cars were fully ‘energized.’

Loved riding in one when I was a kid visiting relatives during summer vacations. There was something special about the unique smell of the interior and the special sound of that air-cooled two cylinder. It's also probably the most modified car in Poland - they can even be turned into snow plows!

I think Subaru and Scion also have done a poor job marketing the car. It's tough for Subaru as because of the BRZ they can't claim that all their cars are AWD, something they used to do quite frequently. Dealerships also don't know how to sell the car - as a BRZ owner, I've heard way too many stories within the…

Test is for a worst-case scenario (engine failure or something), relying only on the brakes. The plane is at max weight, and the brakes are as close to being fully worn out as possible. The aircraft also has to sit for a specific amount of time (I believe 5 minutes) before the fire department intervenes and starts…

Plane has to be evacuated within 90 seconds.

Logos on the tailfins are portraits of Polish aces from WWII. The large round logo on the top of the plane is the logo of the well-known RAF 303rd Squadron that Polish aviators (and one Czech) flew in during the Battle of Britain. The 303rd had the most kills of any squadron in the RAF during the Battle of Britain. …

United and Boeing were the same company back in the 1920s, but they've been separate since 1934. While United has had over time a mostly Boeing fleet, besides the A319/A320s they also flew (in the jet era) Caravelles, DC-8s, and DC-10s (United was a launch customer), and even briefly Lockheed L-1011s following their…

I think you're confusing United with Continental pre-merger. Before the merger, United had one of the largest A320/A319 fleets in the world, and had placed orders for the new A350 along with the 787. In fact, United's Airbus order in the early 1990s was what led Boeing to create the 'Next Generation' 737…

It did hit trees. Just look at the damage to the wing - air stairs won't cause such damage.

This thing nearly crashed a few years ago - the left wing clipped a few trees after the DC-10 hit a downdraft.

But wouldn't the profit on one marked-up Hellcat be greater than the combined profit of a few Hellcats sold at MSRP, especially given the very limited production numbers?

Owned a 2006 Mazda3i for seven years, bought it new, replaced it last year with my BRZ. Nothing ever broke, car was 100% reliable, and it was in fantastic shape when I sold it - no rust issues. Either I was very lucky, or you just had bad luck with your Mazdas.

Thomas Circle bit was filmed Sunday morning.

My BRZ gets mid to upper 30s mpg on the highway, high 20s in the city. For 200hp, don't think that's embarassing...and re BMW and Mercedes switching to FWD cars, they're just cheaper to make and it's easier to hit the price point both are aiming for.

Which Focus ST did you look at? The only ST cheaper than the FR-S is the base ST (white one on display at the Chicago show). I believe the dash look terrible - the radio is too button heavy, and the small screen just emphasizes that something bigger should be there. Even my sister, who's not that into cars,…
