It certainly wasn’t the prettiest of the RX-series, and I do wish they had designed it as a 2 seater like the original, but it was an interesting car and I came very close to buying one. 

For that price you could buy a Ferrari 599, and have a V-12 worthy of the name as well as distinctive looks. There weren’t enough of them made for anyone to think you are driving just “another” Ferrari. 

They have all been put in the trunk, on their way to the East River.

I have not driven one, but I suspect your doctor friend made an incorrect diagnosis.

It may not be as pretty as the Aston, but the R-8 is the better car. The fact that it is still in production and rated better than the new 911 is pretty astonishing. And it looks great too.

Problem solved!

Good choice, but nothing is more universally liked as much as an old pickup truck from the fifties.

If you’re wearing your “it’s the 1970's again” goggles, I guess the Challenger is somewhat pleasing, but I prefer the old model to the current one. The problem with all of them is that they are too big, with too high a belt line, and in the case of the Camaro, looks like a Humvee crushed the roofline down a foot or so.

Slow, yes, but new ones are pretty quiet.

My wife loves her Crosstrek, but she doesn’t have a lead foot either. Sounds like a Tiguan or a used Macan could fit the bill. Or a Jaguar E-Pace. They all cost more than she wants to spend, but you can lease an E-Pace pretty cheap right now.

I consider it a small token of justice that so many of them have ended up being owned by Jewish people.

I agree, none of them are great, although I find the Mustang less objectionable. I have driven a friend’s GT350, and the ergonomics were pretty good, although the seats were nothing to write home about.

Yes, according to JD Power. But if you consider school loans or other forms of debt, they may or may not be able or willing to spend more on a car than $40,000-$50,000. Or maybe they are really smart and like to save money. Just because you have some disposable income doesn’t mean you have to spend it.

All of that may be true, but I am sure Ford, Chevy and FCA would have loved a portion of the nearly 30,000 units that Subaru sold. For Chevrolet it could have been the difference between continuing production or shutting down the Camaro, again.  

Make the track safer or slow the cars down. At least the race was cut short due to weather.

Not blaming them for anything. I work with quite a few young engineers, and they are very smart. Those that do own performance cars usually buy GTI’s, WRX’s and Miatas. 

Sorry, I thought somebody else reading it might want something more than your pithy observation. 

Uh, can you use Google?

Just because FCA can theoretically sell it for less doesn’t mean it wants to. And you obviously haven’t watched any real comparisons of it on a track, like when Motor Trend tried to compare it against a Miata and a BRZ which gave up hundreds of horsepower to it and still wiped the floor with it.

Why do you claim that the Challenger “obviously” has the youngest owner age without even bothering to check it against the competition? The Ford Mustang average age was 51, and the Camaro 49 in the most recently published statistics. Which kind of makes the whole premise of this article pointless.
