I dunno, I'm reserving judgement for this newest model. It could be a decent machine; I'm hoping it's at least a worthy successor to my 3rd-gen TL (2008 non-S 5AT), because the 4th-gen TL definitely wasn't.

I think the Turismo R is closer to the LaFerrari; it's got some LaFerrari lines tossed in with the obvious P1 side profile.
In the case of the Toyobaru, I actually disagree.
Wow, I had no idea the DC-10 was being retired already. Such a shame; I always liked those planes.
Ummm... WOW. Haha you got me there.
Oh no, that's awesome. I wouldn't really call that stance - to me, that looks like an extremely low but functional coilover setup on a dedicated race car - where stuff like driveways and curbs don't really matter. In that scenario, a slight touch of camber on the front wheels does make sense. But notice that the…
Oh, you would be surprised. I have seen many a stanced car owner try to justify and even defend the handling characteristics of stanced cars, adamantly saying things like "the 3 degrees of negative camber helps because it redistributes load on the tires better around turns".
"I want to be different and unique and special, like a snowflake!!! People will notice my car at meets!!" *buys 240SX or VW Golf and smashes the tires into the fender-wall with the cheapest set of coilovers he can find. "Wow, coilovers!! Look how fast my car is now!! And the camber helps me go around corners!!"
LA is bad, but not nearly as bad as you might think.
Neither, actually. I don't have a sense of humor.
I couldn't find this yesterday, but I just found it and thought I'd contribute.
Awww, little baby's angry
I'd swap the drivetrain into a car. Choosing which one would be the difficult part. Some good potential candidates (in no particular order):
WHY DO THEY ALWAYS FLIP MANUMATICS?! My TL's manumatic is laid out like this too, and it infuriates me to no end.
Haha I hate this feeling soooo much.
One time I drove my mom's car one time (2011 Outback 3.6R), and went about 200 feet before realizing I forgot to disengage the handbrake. It's one of those stupid button-operated ones. Haha I much prefer the typical handle in the center column; even the pedal-style handbrakes annoy me.
"a warning, a $2,000 fine, five points, and a night in the cell at the police station" is what I said; don't misquote me.
I agree. I think that for *DUI's, the system should be much more simple.
I'm indifferent about the Vibe, having spent no time behind the wheel of one and only a day in the passenger seat of one we had as a rental car close to a decade ago.
The Q50 is what used to be the G, and the Q70 is what used to be the M. Size-wise and performance-wise, the Q50 more of a cross between the 3-series and the 5-series, and the Q70 is a cross between a 5-series and a 7-series. Which I think is good, because a 3-series is too small and a 7-series too big for my tastes.
