Jelacy Returns for a Bouncy Ride (May 22, 2013) I really like the new side mirror...
Could Honda Power McLaren Sportscars? (May 19, 2013) Are you guys kidding me? The front of the McLaren is rubbish, the 458, gorgeous... The McLaren's rear is very nice though.
Peugeot Reveals RCZ Magnetic Edition (May 18, 2013) They look gorgeous, have great interiors and drive well... But they're impractical, not-as-fast as a TT, and still, STILL have a god-awful front end...
Acura NSX Production to Begin in 2015 (May 17, 2013) Nice interior...
Acura NSX Production to Begin in 2015 (May 17, 2013) Look, would you rather have a car that is gorgeous to drive and utterly under your control, or a power-crazed lunatic machine that demolishes your body? Exactly.
Porsche Planning More Hybrids (May 17, 2013) You're right, but the concept had side-facing exhausts, which is what is pictured. They changed because of some cooling issues apparently.
24 Incredible Headlight Designs (May 16, 2013) I love the grille... The lights are meh.
24 Incredible Headlight Designs (May 16, 2013) And like an origami experiment turned jet fighter :D
24 Incredible Headlight Designs (May 16, 2013) The Galibier, and it's being redesigned apparently.
24 Incredible Headlight Designs (May 16, 2013) The car itself is the most gorgeous thing on Planet Earth, but the lights? Hmm...
24 Incredible Headlight Designs (May 16, 2013) Is this a joke?
24 Incredible Headlight Designs (May 16, 2013) V In absolute agreement there...
Tesla Model S Outsells German Rivals (May 14, 2013) Such a nicely minimalist interior. Love it.
P1 Supercar Sunday 2013 (May 13, 2013) I never liked the Mustang much... Although nxs is being a bit harsh... :P
2015 Audi TT Details Uncovered (May 12, 2013) 'Simpler'? It's already a simple design, and based on the original... I heard from Autocar that the next TT would be more 'technical' looking...
Jaguar F-Type Coupe Snapped (May 11, 2013) Nick, it was because Jaguar wanted the soft-top to be sold in time for summer, where sales of soft tops tend to be higher. And on the subject of THIS coupe... Utterly gorgeous. Jaguar has made a killer with this car.
BMW M Running on 3 Cylinders? (May 06, 2013) They're already doing that for the i8, so I don't see why not...
More Exclusive LaFerrari on the Way? (May 06, 2013) 'The LaFerrari' is grammatically incorrect. It's just 'LaFerrari'. You can tell their naming people really have no imagination...
Top 5 Lotus Evora Special Editions (May 04, 2013) Looks great! Shame it's not got a nicer engine though...
DC Design Avanti Coming in 2014 (May 04, 2013) They had a good idea... And ruined it...
Nismo GT-R Coming to Tokyo (May 04, 2013) The Nismo version could bring a resemblance to this, yes
Top 5 Modern Speedsters (May 02, 2013) Unique for sure, and a little exquisite too...
Top 5 Modern Speedsters (May 02, 2013) Wonderful car. I never liked the Mclaren-Mercedes, but this...
Audi S5 on Strasse Forged Wheels (May 01, 2013) Very, very nice indeed... And this is coming from a notoriously hard-line critic of any tuner/modded cars...
McLaren Losing Money? (Apr 29, 2013) Exactly. He admitted that Mclaren hadn't made a dime of profit yet, but that they would this year. Their investors are being ridiculous - no one can say they haven't made a massive impact and aren't going to in the future unless they're brain-dead.
2014 Corvette Stingray Officially Priced (Apr 29, 2013) Put it this way - if you can't use it on a motorway for ages on end, it ain't luxury. A Rolls Royce Phantom is a luxury car. The Viper is not a luxury car ._.
SSC Tuatara Nears Production (Apr 28, 2013) It's how you put that power down though. The Dagger GT wouldn't have done very well. Anyone remember that car? All of the power in the world is useless if you can't deploy it effectively.
SSC Tuatara Nears Production (Apr 28, 2013) If it sparks an arms race still further, count me in. It'll be biblical...
BMW 650i Coupe by SR Auto (Apr 28, 2013) You mean the 6 Series Coupe... Gran Coupe is the 4-door.
MG Roadster to Return? (Apr 27, 2013) Snazzy design. It's brave and I like to say they did a great job with it.
Chrome Fisker by SR Auto Group (Apr 26, 2013) Looks lovely... Though I'd have mine sans wrap, thanks
Porsche's New Panamera in Action (Apr 24, 2013) The whole car should have been incorporated into a trash compactor...
Porsche's New Panamera in Action (Apr 24, 2013) I was hoping more 'Sport Turismo Concept' than 'Rehashed version of Very Ugly car'...
2014 Mercedes S-Class Nearly Ready (Apr 24, 2013) Wheels look tiny...
Icona Vulcano is China's Ferrari (Apr 23, 2013) I'm not any good at making videos... But that was empathetically NOT a good video...
Nissan Friend-Me Bows in China (Apr 22, 2013) I like it. It's in tune with the times and save the rear, could be very successful (especially with 5 seats).
MG3 Supermini Debuts in Shanghai (Apr 22, 2013) Not TOO bad, but nothing special, I fear...
Top 5 Tuned F12 Berlinettas (Apr 21, 2013) It's not turbo'ed and it's how they prefer it. That's why there's such a gap.
Jaguar Delivers 1st F-Types in Style (Apr 20, 2013) HUBBA
Jaguar Delivers 1st F-Types in Style (Apr 20, 2013) Gorgeous car...
BMW i8 Hits the Ring (Apr 19, 2013) Still not sure if they've pulled off the back end. Side profile looks very good though.
Guinness Restores Bugatti’s Record (Apr 14, 2013) Guys, Bugatti set the limiter at 257mph to protect the COUPE's tyres from melting. The maximum speed it can reach is 267mph. The Vitesse can hit 254mph. The speed the Venom got to was roughly 265. However, it's possible that it could go higher.
No Hofmeister Kink for BMW i3? (Apr 12, 2013) And aero efficiency, that too.
Top 5 Mercedes Supercars (Apr 11, 2013) Those arches are MASSIVE
Top 5 Mercedes Supercars (Apr 11, 2013) An ugly car, graceless. Nothing wrong with that engine, though...
Renault Reveals Twin'Z Concept (Apr 09, 2013) Mental. I like it!
Land Rover Kills Evoque Cabrio (Apr 09, 2013) Moronic idea. Glad they killed it.
First Stingray Convertible Sells for $1 Million (Apr 07, 2013) D'you think he'll be able to afford options, or will those cost four times the price of Lamborghini Aventador options as well?
Top 5 Elise-Based Sportscars (Apr 07, 2013) Interesting exhaust exit. Any particular reason(s)?
Top 5 Elise-Based Sportscars (Apr 07, 2013) Agreed. Never liked the look of it, and is ridiculously expensive in comparison to its donor, being lighter and more fun (not to mention faster in refuelling...).
Ferrari Getto Design Concept for 2025 (Apr 07, 2013) Not disagreeing with you on that, Johnny...
Ferrari Getto Design Concept for 2025 (Apr 07, 2013) Absolutely exquisite. Miles better than LaFerrari and in urgent need of some building...
BMW M6 Gran Coupe Hits MotoGP (Apr 06, 2013) Best-looking BMW on sale after the Coupe and a tad more than the pugnacious little 1M...
Mitsubishi G4 Hints at Mirage Sedan (Apr 05, 2013) Designers here much? It's hardly going to be a 458, but the blue doesn't do it any favours... I do hope for Mitsubishi's sake that this succeeds. They really aren't doing well these days, apparently :/
Detroit Electric Reveals SP:01 (Apr 04, 2013) This... This is just a Lotus Elise! They look almost identical! Save the rear end, which looks almost identical to a pimply ass...
BMW X4 Drops In Ahead of Schedule (Apr 04, 2013) It's a stupid concept horribly executed. Why in god's name would you buy one of these monstrosities? I bet you there's some law of the universe that says stupidity like this cannot succeed...
Top 5 Super Sedans in New York (Apr 04, 2013) Guys. This is an AMG. The chances of it even knowing what understeer is are so small as to be non-existent...
Say Goodbye to the Honda HSV-010 (Apr 04, 2013) It's going to be hybrid, haven't you paid attention to the articles about it? Dunno if you approve, but it's an NSX, and that's enough for me :D
Rimac Concept_One Drags a Ferrari (Apr 03, 2013) This is hardly a fair comparison... 1000 bhp, 4WD, of course it's going to be faster. Put it up against an F12 or LaFerrari, THEN it's a more balanced race...
Top 5 Track Monsters in New York (Apr 03, 2013) They still can't, at least not to the freakish levels that European and Japanese cars on sale now. Examples include the Mclaren 12C, Nissan GT-R, Pagani Huayra, Lotus Exige S... Not that American cars are bad, mind you. They are good, undoubtedly.
Citroen Reveals New C4 Picasso (Apr 02, 2013) They've actually done the near-impossible fear of making an MPV look good. I am speechless...
F1 Considering Antarctica GP? (Apr 02, 2013) Are you sure? Swear it was a Jeep Grand Cherokee MY2013...
Bentley Preparing 650hp Continental (Mar 31, 2013) Not very good. It's just too heavy...
Volvo Details New R-Design Models (Mar 29, 2013) You want a fast 'normal sedan'? Try a Audi A6 with their legendary Bi-Turbo diesel. 'Diesel is crap', you say? It has more torque than a Ferrari 599 GTO. Savage acceleration a by-product and at your service.
Toyota Launches GT86 Cup Edition (Mar 24, 2013) Similar colour scheme to the Porsche 911 GT3 RS 4.0, no less...
Lotus Going Bankrupt? (Mar 18, 2013) It's a humongous shame that Lotus hasn't found a solid foundation in its entire existence... DRB-HiCom were wrong, I think, for stripping the company's future plans. That was a mistake, I think...
Next Audi A5 Due in 2016 (Mar 16, 2013) 'Old'? Doesn't look it at all!
What the Alfa 4C Could Have Been (Mar 14, 2013) Back IS pretty nice, mind you.
What the Alfa 4C Could Have Been (Mar 14, 2013) Front's too squashed, and the side mirrors aren't great either. Plus, the roof doesn't 'flow' with the body very well. Not THAT great, for me, really. But that said, at least it doesn't have those truly abominable headlights from the real thing...
Next Mustang to Have Turbo Four (Mar 10, 2013) I never really was a fan of the Mustang - looks a bit piggish at the front, and I dislike the crudity, although I suppose a low price is some compensation... Now, how long before the hatred arrives?
Hennessey's Own Ford Focus ST (Mar 08, 2013) @Brad too true, and I'll say that the paint job is quite delicious as well...
Top 5 Sportscars in Geneva (Mar 08, 2013) Ugliness- Thy name is Wiesmann MF4...
LaFerrari Debuts in Geneva (Mar 06, 2013) I thought it was a V8, according to TG?
Lamborghini Unveils Veneno in Geneva (Mar 06, 2013) It's not meant to be 'beautiful'. It's supposed to look savage, brutal. To have a rear wing large enough for a jet plane to land on, masses of sharp edges that could slice steel and to look heroically hedonistic. It's a huge middle finger. I love it.
Subaru Previews Future with VIZIV Concept (Mar 05, 2013) Now THAT'S a cabin to sit in...
Subaru Previews Future with VIZIV Concept (Mar 05, 2013) Aston Martin Vanquish taillights, much?
Subaru Previews Future with VIZIV Concept (Mar 05, 2013) Audi grille...
Kia Provo Concept Heading to Geneva (Mar 03, 2013) Guys, I think it's kind of unfair to say this is a Mini copy. They're not going to make it ugly JUST to make it different...
Kia Provo Concept Heading to Geneva (Mar 03, 2013) Nice...
Koenigsegg Dissects its Heart (Mar 02, 2013) 1.3 three-cylinder with 300hp? Yes please...
The Chinese Are Building Lambos (Mar 02, 2013) Hey, pretty good replica- Oh wait, it's the real thing. Never mind...
5 Coachbuilt Alfa Romeo Concepts (Feb 24, 2013) Oh. My. Dear. God. I need one. NOW.
Citroen Updates C3 for Geneva (Feb 22, 2013) Brings lots of images of the Golf VI from this angle... They're all becoming homogenous :/
Bentley Presents New Flying Spur (Feb 20, 2013) Lights aren't so elegantly done, but at least it looks different to all the models before it from the back...
Fiat Dealers Lining Up for Alfa 4C (Feb 19, 2013) Staggeringly pretty...
Carrozzeria Touring Bringing Disco Volante to Geneva (Feb 19, 2013) Gorgeous back end...
Alfa Romeo Previews Gloria IED Concept (Feb 17, 2013) Oh my...
Qoros Reveals Geneva-Bound Trio (Feb 17, 2013) They like their gadgets. I reckon these electronic tablet things will be an asset of theirs...
Qoros Reveals Geneva-Bound Trio (Feb 17, 2013) "...two years of extensive testing..." Very funny. Now get real - they drove it around their car park and since nothing broke, called it good to go. China's massively better than before-but their safety and refinement simply aren't renowned...
Harris Pits M6 Against SL63 AMG (Feb 15, 2013) I think the M6 looks better, but the AMG has a more rounded repertoire of abilities, is more useable, and that engine... The M6 feels soulless in comparison.
Alfa Romeo Reveals New 4C (Feb 12, 2013) There's no other way of saying this: they cocked up the lights very badly indeed...
SsangYong Previews SIV-1 Concept (Feb 11, 2013) Far better than the Juke. If they made this now, they could be on to something potentially very successful...
It's Coming: The Fastest Lambo Ever (Feb 10, 2013) Err, Reva, the Aventador is the replacement for the Murcielago? I agree with those who fancy a modern Miura though. It'd be a nice change, undoubtedly.
It's Coming: The Fastest Lambo Ever (Feb 10, 2013) It's also quite hard to understand why you talk about the Gallardo- it sounds to me like the upcoming Lambo is going to be an Aventador spin-off, given the tag line of 'fastest Lambo yet'...
It's Coming: The Fastest Lambo Ever (Feb 10, 2013) Err, Jack, not meaning to be rude, but why d'you think the 458 has been beating the 12C in all the group tests? It's because it's more fun. Same deal here-if the Gallardo is more fun to drive, than the 458's or 12C's numbers mean absolutely nothing.
BMW Preparing New X6 for 2014 (Feb 10, 2013) Why aren't you guys commenting on how it's the stupidest car ever made? Massive, pointless, and brutishly ugly. One of my least favourite cars at present, unquestionably.
5 Embarrassing Family Cars (Feb 06, 2013) Appalling. Kill it, kill it with fire.
5 Embarrassing Family Cars (Feb 06, 2013) Kinda reminds me of a Panamera, actually...
5 Embarrassing Family Cars (Feb 06, 2013) Truly the most hideous thing I've ever seen. The designer who penned its lines actually had to be a complete retard in order to call that a good job. Didn't the management gawp in horror when they saw this monstrosity?!?
DRT: RENNtech E63 AMG vs. Tesla Model S (Feb 05, 2013) Initially it's very close, but the AMG has a nuke to the Tesla's rifle. Game over once the cars dig in...
