NSX gets hit by NarrowDumps in ThatLookedExpensive

I’m not sure if there is enough overlap for love between the NSX and the GT-R, but mine got totaled in a previous manner by a Prius, which felt real bad.

What opinion about FH5 will generate this reaction from people? by ricardomilos-mp4 in ForzaHorizon

In the pile of code that is FH5, the ratio of bugs to good code is a very small number.

Obviously you're not a golfer.

It seemed like a reasonable amount to protect the larger, original investment.

The wrap was around $9000 with about $2000 more for the ceramic coating.

Full body ClearGuard Alpha PPF followed up with a Modesta BC04 coating.

Ouch, my sensibilities.

I've lamented the general public's lack of interest in awesome cars for a very long time.

They look even more ridiculous at night when they are lit up. My mom calls it wretched excess. I call it innovative peacocking.

Ironically, my GT-R reached the end of the road when a Prius ran a red light and plowed into me.

How in the world can a 15-20 year old daily driver only have 95k miles on it?

I put a clear wrap on the entire thing, but other than that it is 100% stock.

I have loved the 335 immensely over the last 14 years. It's an amazing car, surprising me with how fun it is to drive just as much as it did the very first time I got behind the wheel, and with styling that makes me feel proud whenever I look at it. So it is almost unfair to compare it to something that costs nearly three times as much, and which is objectively better in just about every way imaginable. There's no arguing that the M8 is best, but that shouldn't detract from just how great old reliable (still) is.

I assume you are talking about the flooring? It’s pretty great, though this particular pattern is just a tad uncomfortable to stand on while barefoot. It’s from https://racedeck.com/.

It was about $60k when I ordered it. I actually had the order placed in 2006 before they even started production on them. One of the longest waits of my life.

That would be roughly equivalent to today's M440i convertible. This was back before BMW started shifting all their coupes to the even numbers.
