  1. 2020 GT500 hot lap time from Laguna Seca [Motortrend]

    Agreed. If anything, Laguna Seca is where the 1LE should've shined. Most other popular road courses like VIR would favor the GT500.
  2. 2020 GT500 hot lap time from Laguna Seca [Motortrend]

    Blame GM for that. Also, tire is not going to make up 4 seconds when performing at this level. For context, the GT350, that is 1 second faster is on Michelin PS4S too. So there's that. I'm just tired of the C8 Z51 vs GT500 comparisons. No doubt the Z06 and ZR1 will likely be faster, but...
  3. 2020 GT500 hot lap time from Laguna Seca [Motortrend]

    Just as a quick update, the C8 Z51 ran a 1:37.83 which is 4 seconds slower than the GT500 and 1 sec slower than the base GT350. So there's that...
  4. Ford marries Tesla? God help us all.

    You know, I find your comments all have this...short-sightedness to them. Everyone is entitled to their own opinions, of course. Just yours seem to be rooted in the type of "what if" conspiracy I see in other places on the internet. I've already stated that I think ICE vehicles are going to go...
  5. Ford marries Tesla? God help us all.

    Lots of interesting conversation going on here. I just think there's a world where you don't have to be afraid of technology like some big bad wolf coming to steal your V8 in the night. As technology moves forward, I'm happy that Ford is making business plans that keep the Mustang around (see...
  6. Ford marries Tesla? God help us all.

    If car manufacturers cared about what enthusiasts wanted, we'd have big block Mustangs, a new Town Car, a V8 GT, and non-SUV/Truck Fords. Alas.... Also, why do people use track performance as a measurement of whether or not a car is fun to drive? Most people, I would guestimate 97% of US...
  7. Mustang GT purchase or wait?

    For example: Used 2019 Ford Mustang in Dallas, Texas | CarMax
  8. Mustang GT purchase or wait?

    Get a cheaper 18, and call it a day. Don't let people downplay Sync 3. Not the greatest infotainment, but nothing will make your car feel cheaper than that 4" screen after a few months. There's lots of 18-19 cars with your exact options specifications for under $40K. I just bought my 18 in...
  9. Ford marries Tesla? God help us all.

    Do you care what car the government thinks you should buy? No? Neither does anyone else generally. The government has definitely, however, made EVs easier to buy. No arguments there. The tech has improved and people has followed, it's literally as simple as that. Teslas specifically are also...
  10. Ford marries Tesla? God help us all.

    Don't blame Tesla for that. They are a response to the market pressures and market demands. Like the "horse" option disappeared, so too will ICE engines. Porsche is doing some interesting things, however. They've developed a synthetic fuel with Siemens to keep ICE cars (as classics) on the road...
  11. Ford marries Tesla? God help us all.

    You're treating Tesla like they haven't already proven their brand and products are viable. No auto maker makes the perfect vehicle, and it's silly to use that as a benchmark. All automakers would fail that benchmark. Tesla went public over 10 years ago. If this were the days of the Tesla...
  12. S550 may be eliminated sooner rather then later...

    I think charging times will come down, but the nature of "filling up" your battery will begin to change as well. People try to compare, understandably so, charging an EV to filling up a tank with gas. Obviously, they're a similar task meant to yield the same results. However, I would think of...
  13. Ford marries Tesla? God help us all.

    That's ok man, if you don't care for the tech, that's fine. Step aside. Progress will wait, I promise.
  14. Ford marries Tesla? God help us all.

    I mean, that's just not what we're seeing in the market. Market valuation is a reflection of both actual and perceived value. Tesla has essentially built an entire business case, manufacturing process, charging infrastructure, and consumer vehicle business from the ground up. They literally...
  15. Ford marries Tesla? God help us all.

    That's very true, however, market cap shows market confidence in the product. Everyone knows the main problem with Tesla, is not it's products, it's Elon. Also, their product quality issues are essentially being hyper-focused on because it's a new product. Ford just settled a 30 million dollar...
  16. Ford marries Tesla? God help us all.

    Lol. Well that's just like...your opinion man. Tesla Is Now The World’s Most Valuable Car Company With A $208 Billion Valuation Ford doesn't have the market cap to buy Tesla, even if they wanted. Tesla has a higher valuation than Ford. Ford would only be so lucky to merge with Tesla. Ford...
  17. 2021 Performance Car of the Year

    When you see a tear, please let me know. Disagreement isn't crying or complaining. But nice try.
  18. 2021 Performance Car of the Year

    Yeah, people think it's a "fastest around a track wins" competition. They're of course taking track performance as key, but they're looking at driving dynamics, livability, and host of other factors to make the determination. That's why cars like the Senna didn't win many journalist awards. To...
  19. 2021 Performance Car of the Year

    ????? The 992 911 (although the turbos did come out this year) and C8 were released last year. The AMG GT-R was released in 2017. Why would they be considered for PCOTY 2020? The article did mention issues with manufacturers not sending certain cars. That's really the manufacturer's fault and...
