Now this excites me!

This (^) just looks too much like this (v)

Needs more hood scoop.

While Elon Musk insists that they won't recall the Model S for any reason, the feds are at least going to take a look to see what's going on after three fires in about five weeks.

Proper nouns should be capitalized: Saleen Fucking S7.

My Datsun was horrible in the snow. RWD with no weight over the rear wheels = awesome hoonage in the rain, and absolutely no traction whatsoever in the snow.

Apparently, Subaru designers went to the Chevy College of Automotive Design. The front 1/3rd looks awesome, and the rest looks phoned-in.

Agreed. This is completely new territory on many levels. I dislike the sensationalism displayed, and the implications that it is initially an issue with the vehicle design. So far Musk has done this (building Tesla) with precision. It is a car with a stellar safety rating, high-quality build and design, with the…

That's a good point, but the NHSTA doesn't investigate where the cause of the accident is easily attributable to extrinsic factors. I don't know enough about the latest fire, but I do know that the first fire was due to road debris puncturing the underside of the vehicle. NHTSA agreed with the investigator's findings…

Of course, there is still the chance that the NHTSA will mandate a recall if they see an issue. And then, in that case, Musk will need to eat his words.

This is not the first time I've used this, but it's appropriateness is undiminished.

This is how I feel about Chevy's entire sedan lineup. Hell, it's pretty much how I feel about almost ALL of Chevy's line up. I imagine their design team is exceptionally frustrated because their "edgy" designs keep getting cut down in committee, or they're all the same pocket-protector-wearing middle-aged portly white…

Turn 10 says their vision for the new Forza is quality over quantity. And while they've included the incredible Mount Panorama from Australian V8 Supercars, they've left out Infineon Raceway (aka Sears Point), Japan's Suzuka Circuit, and, most surprisingly, the Nurburgring Nordschliefe. There are just 14 tracks…

That's what I name my torrent folder, too.

There's no counter-argument to make, particularly when your original assertion is based on "my friends and acquaintances do X, so X is normal". My original assertion that the market is composed of a diversity of buyers who tend to choose gadget-filled cars is still true. So is your statement that you know plenty of…

The plural of anecdote is not data.

Unfortunately that's not the way social psychology tends to work. The less money you have, the more likely you are to purchase things that resemble or mimic wealth. So, people who don't have money to burn are more likely to burn their (albeit little) disposable income on things that make them appear wealthy - like…

By most, I mean controlling interest: http://www.fhi.co.jp/english/ir/sha…

Will Subaru be the largest automaker in the world? Nope (although they're sort of close to it if you count them as part of Toyota, which most people don't).

For a second I thought that read Neil Patrick Harris and I got really excited.
