My 2002 Z06 had 405 hp almost 20 years before this will arrive. 400 is a significant improvement over the outgoing model, but it’s not that much in today’s world. If they threw in a turbo six with 500hp+ I would consider buying one.

Ah, yes, the Daenerys problem. Nobody else shares the purity of vision that killing will make the world a better place... Except for the evildoers (aka Cersei), who are all for it, although they think that a different set of people (not them) should be culled.

As a 16 year old it was similarly awesome. Possibly cooler than riding the TGV.

It’s difficult to market something that ugly. I’d put more effort into styling first... Great drivetrains though.

Probably sales numbers, though he might have had the unfortunate experience of looking at them or, worse, sitting in one.

Those darn pushrod cretins. Always wanting lots of power, fuel efficiency, and reliability without extra complexity, weight, or cost. How dare they!

There's a giant thread on this on Corvette forum. GM used to validate to 87 degrees until the Z06 fiasco. Now it's 100. Sure, they could design for 120 degrees but that would mean another __ square feet of heat exchangers, __ more weight and __ more cost. Hardcore track rats can do all that stuff aftermarket, but most…

With a name like Booty Judge, do you expect anything less? (I remember thinking that a politician named Weiner sending people pics of his weiner was as weird as things would get.)

I think there is some value in educating the community about what ‘bad’ is. 10 years ago we didn’t all know about things like microaggressions. That’s just one example. We don’t need all the details of every crime, but we do need enough evidence to prepare bystanders to detect and react to the signs of abuse. A…

Gotta call BS on that. I’ve only been drunk a few times in my life, because I choose to remain in control of myself and my behavior. Those few times, I could barely remain upright, but I was still able to keep myself from doing or saying things I would regret.

Does it overheat on track above 87 degrees? I’ve been looking into trading my base Stingray for a C7 Z06 or Z51 and have been surprised to find that even the Z51s would overheat after a few hard laps, and owners have been told to manually short shift the automatics to reduce heat caused by high rpm. If I were you, I…

I’ve had that same thought! Give them a travel budget and send them out into the world to find the end. Will they go east-west? Or north-south? Do they trust public transportation or demand to captain their own seafaring ship to make sure nobody is just taking them in circles? How do they navigate? Do they trust maps…

You were expected to plan dates? Like, all of them? And they resulted in boring sex? Ouch.

In Georgia there used to be common law marriage where you automatically became married if you did too many things indicating that you were married. Meanwhile next door in North Carolina it’s illegal to cohabitate?

I’m confused about whether a social stigma actually exists and/or how to detect it. I’ve eaten alone thousands of times over the past 20 years and it’s gloriously relaxing to get my own table. I usually bring my laptop to get work done and nobody bats an eye whether I’m at Zaxbys or a fine steakhouse. And I usually…

Hey, c’mon now, someone has to make all the weekly status updates and scorecards and slides to feed the execs. If nobody does, they get curious and start bothering employees, distracting them from doing actual work. Sometimes you need a program manager to generate financial reports too because execs think they can…

But is this really yellow? It’s a rather dark shade. The linked post features a car that is a much lighter yellow. Which one is truly yellow? And how can we be sure?

Piper in Fallout 4. Sweet, earnest, hilarious and never without something to remark on.

Clearly you’ve never owned an S2000. My first convertible top was replaced under warranty. I patched and glued the second top just like this one for years. I spent a weekend installing the 3rd top just so I could sell the car. There should have been a recall on these cars for the tops splitting. If you won’t buy a car…

This thing must be astoundingly loud. Helmet + earplugs might not be enough... Slap a turbo on it and now we're talking. (Somewhat quieter and a whole lot faster.) Those motors handle boost very well.
