What the hell?? I’d be proud to own it. It’s somewhat famous and who cares if work needs done? A well designed car shouldn’t break after being tracked, though.

Lexus easily still does and the new Lexus LS500 will once again CRUSH the competition. I bought an Infiniti Q45 brand new in 1995. I’ve also owned 3 Lexus vehicles (LS400, GS400, LS430), 2 BMWs (740i M-Sport and 530i), 2 Mercedes-Benz (W220, and R230) and a Volvo. The Lexus vehicles have far outdone anything else I’ve…
A Mercedes-Benz 500E. Also known as the W124 M5 killer. You probably won’t want to sell it... ever. One of the finest pieces of engineering ever produced (splendid M119 V8). Don’t forget Porsche helped with the design and assembly.
Do you have any idea how many Lexus products, BMW products, and Mercedes-Benz products my entire family has owned? If you’re that blinded by your little brand affection for BMW, you are not being objective. I can tell you for certain that any product with panel gaps as big as I’ve seen them on the M4 is not a…
Except, after you spend time with them, you realize how well made the Lexus is compared to the M4 and how,much higher quality in general it is. The naturally aspirated V8 Will probably last 500,000 miles like all other Lexus V8s and take endless abuse. When people compare these vehicles, it’s a no brainer for me. I…
Nothing bizarre about it. It’s beautiful in the same way the Diablo is, just like Gandini envisioned it.
Why do I believe half of this will actually come true?
300 mph is still the optimistic limit because of tires it will need to use. Those numbers you figured are way too simple for what is involved with something made for the street.
Which is all you need to take out an aircraft targeted properly.
It wasn’t a serious comment anyway. I was just messing with him.
Don’t even start with stereotypes. I have a few as well. Most other people took you seriously and so did I. You left no indication it was a joke and later reiterated what you originally said. I deal with idiots on here all the time and I can tell when someone is truly sarcastic. Usually, they’re not so defensive.
The point I made was they are really rough on the track as it is. The loose objects in the cabin could virtually self destruct without securing them.
You would be the type of person that suggests to drink coffee and relax.
They’ve never made bad vehicles (OK maybe some in sold Europe). They used bad paint and corrosion protection a couple years and people got all mad up in the north because they didn’t know how to stop the rust on them. The rust caused 90% of the problems. 16 years later, my W220, is chugging along like it rolled off…
It’s not funny and you were not joking. There’s no need to cover it up now.
Nah, you keep the drinks in strong cup holders and have tubes running to your mouth.
This is the most idiotic comment I’ve seen the entire time I’ve been commenting, and it’s been quite a while. Congratulations.
Strong cup holders means you can take it to the track and not give a damn. Otherwise, your drink is going to end up all over your dash or knock you unconscious.
Why are you writing for Jalopnik and allowed to say things bad about quirky high-performance budget vehicles, again?
If you think Reagan would be considered a modern-day liberal you’d be lying to yourself.
