That is much improved over the current look. Wonder if it will make it to the showroom looking as nice as the rendering?

US to Canada didn't make the cut? Those guards at Niagara Falls can be quite ruthless. So much for friendly neighbors up north.

I-278 Kosciuszko bridge in NYC

mmmm Torque

That turning vehicle's insurance will probably go up significantly

I guess there's always that risk of ending up in a canal when driving in the Netherlands.

this is what happens when we arm everyone? NRA forever!

Americans can afford 150+ HP diesels without a doubt. Perhaps some europeans need a diesel Focus because of their economical standpoint. One has to remember that fuel costs in Europe are much higher, and not every European can afford a European car.

Perhaps I should have said average speed. I apologize my mistake, unfortunately discussions about activities just aren't as pure as the experience itself. Also I consider these "NYC roads" to be more like Manhattan highways. And pedestrian lives are very subjective when it comes to this route, whereas this is not a…

for some reason I feel like if it were a weaker vehicle, this would never be published because it would be really sad.

The eff? Nowhere did I mention NYC, an Afroduck wannabe could have pulled this stunt in any old town. I speak in general terms. And I think there are some places in this world where people are put in jail for their opinion (North Korea), you totalitarian jerk.

I really love this article/video. It's time to spread this message to a much wider audience.

I guess that's what makes it that much more exciting. I can imagine the lights are there for safety. However his car seemed to be more than capable of accelerating and stopping faster than 95% of the cars on the road. Don't even know what you're arguing about anymore. If you need to fulfill your purpose in life by…

My single piston calipers are just fine, I don't do enough track driving to need any more. I've had an RSX-S in the past as well, I did not like driving it at more than 100mph because it felt like it would float off the road. Sticking with zee Germans for now.

You are taking the legal approach, I'll stick with the practical side and what actually happens. Perhaps we are both wrong.

Never said there was a "highway". I said that the average speed on these roads are roughly 50mph, barely anyone here drives at 40mph. And there are certain hours when this route is nearly unobstructed by any other traffic. And though I do not condone what Afroduck did, I truly believe that 24 mins ain't shit. The only…

Clearly you have no effen clue as to what you are talking about. Guess this is why BMW enthusiasts are vilified by the misinformed people who have never owned one. Sticky yes, but no one is going put a slicks on a daily driver. However one can go with a wider width tire in the front, where 70% of the braking force…

I think that is what you said I said. Perhaps you should reread what I wrote word for word. Nowhere does it say anything about Manhattan. Also in case you haven't been to Washington Heights lately or ever looked at a map for that matter you might recognize that there actually is a Highway there, it's called I-95 and…
