So an extension of your point is that people who work for a living can't afford a $400 car payment? You might want to work on that a little, when you're not too busy working for a living.

Paying workers a livable wage should be a part of any business plan.

I just finished a course in Macroeconomics

Maybe for economy cars, but for compact luxury cars it's usually the opposite. Most people who can spend $40,000 on a new car buy the automatic so the manuals are comparatively rare but many of the people who want a depreciated $40,000 car want the manual. This makes the manuals more expensive on the used market.

Great news for Ford, of course, and great news for all 13 Toyota Tundra owners.

Porsche essentially has six lines of vehicles (Macan, Cayenne, 911, Boxster/Cayman, 918, Panamera), but you better believe a seventh is on the way. Given that the the company sells a Macan about every hour, there's plenty of money going around to do something new.

They're action movies. If they weren't stupidly over the top then they wouldn't be as fun to watch. I'm not saying that these movies are future classics or anything but I wouldn't change the channel if they were on TV either.

They are more than likely putting down an AFFF (aqueous film forming foam) mix that will float on top of hydrocarbons and slow down the fuel vaporization rate enough to starve any flames. This tactic is only effective if there is complete coverage of the liquid surface, and it's likely the fuel spilled through

No one ever actually intends to toss a dangerous chunk of loose metal into a car to flop around and fall out on the track.

It's good enough for any DOT tire, just not racing slicks.

Here's what the Carrera S owner's manual states regarding tires and oiling:

Vegemite is made using a significant proportion of American parts and given an American brand name by its American corporate parent?

Overall width with the doors open is much less, so they can be parked in smaller spaces.

The new Formula 1 hybrids may be slower than the old V8 F1 cars but they are still the fastest racecars in the world and will run for 300 km with increased speed on every lap. Every manufacturer entry in LMP1 is a hybrid and those are designed to race for 24 hours. Tell me again how hybrids make terrible race cars?

That guy is either a troll or an idiot. Every comment I've seen of his on this site is asinine.

'It is offensive and completely irrelevant to focus on Carmen's lack of ability,' said a team spokesman. 'She has joined the team to do a job, and that job is to get photographed looking attractive in our overalls'.

A GM 4L60E has a final drive ratio of 2.87:1... with 4.10 rear gears. It has a 0.70:1 OD gear which is more than most modern cars. A Z51 corvette 6AT has a final drive ratio of 1.83:1, a Charger Hellcat has a final drive ratio of 1.76:1. Only tiny 4 cylinders have final drive ratios that high and only because

This isn't Vector we're talking about. Koenigsegg has built hundreds of cars that meet all of the performance claims made about them. There's no reason to expect that this car will fail to meet its performance goals.

IT IS NOT A SPORTS CAR IT IS A MUSCLE CAR! WHAT IS SO HARD TO UNDERSTAND ABOUT THIS?
