There used to be a few of these by me. There is also a right angle turn onto the highway that gets very icy. I’ve seen at least two of them wind up not just off the road, but on their tailgate after having apparently spun off the road, after having failed to make that turn. Nose in the air. 

And there is no way that was an accident.

I miss Reversi.

Ever since the GBA, I have always carried Namco Museum and Atari Museum for pretty much that reason. (Atari gives me my Asteroids fix)

I was thinking Gladiator, but, well, no, you’re right, you’ve found her, that car truly expresses her inner self. 

Exactly. And it’s ‘just software’. I know the prestige brands have been doing it, but there’s no reason a, say, Prius, couldn’t have a performance mode button. Imagine if they’d sold them that way from the start.

I seriously feel there is a huge market for performance hybrids. All you need is the boost from 0-30 till you can get the RPMs into the fat part of the torque curve and you can probably shave a second off anything’s 0-60. 

The only kit car worth that money is a Beck. (Those are probably better than the original cars) 

If... you slid the passenger seat all the way back and inverted the seat you were carrying, maybe? but...

Well, drift mode does say it’s entirely possible to do fun things with a 4WD, it’s just a question of bias... 

You know, you can get a trailer hitch for the STI. EcoHitch. Tow rating of 3500 pounds. And you can get one of those hitch plank things. Could have ferried the seat and tires down on that.

By the way, if you guys want any of my old shots, or this year’s, just poke me, I’ll be glad to pass ‘em over, goes back to maybe ‘08, though camera technology advances over the years. 

And here I thought I was done sharing things from the auto show. You know I’m an XRS fan, having had a 2003. I looked at this here and said ‘Man, it’s like I flew back in time.’

Eh, it worked well enough we’re talking about it twenty years later.

Oh, what a feeling!

That’d be a GLFH, wouldn’t it?

Here, the front, too.

It’s not a bug it’s a... 

Aw, man. Beat me to it. God that downstairs had a fantastic roundtable of Zs. And yeah, the Black Pearl was my favorite. 

That’s part of why I bought a V6 Camry - it had equal/superior stats to the 350Z.  (Other reasons being in exceptional _need_ of a car _right now_)  Wasn’t the worst car I’ve owned.
