Sorry, no those are 315/30/20 tires on the rear end end. I made sure to look real close on Top Gear. I can only imagine how hard those are to mount.

I just need to reiterate. IT'S SO GOOD LOOKING The silver wheels are just perfect contrast against the body colors (be it a black car or a green or blue) GramCracker fucked around with this message at 17:13 on Feb 20, 2014 |

it was an awesome video to watch, and I agree on the wheels in the video... holy poo poo it looks amazing. But then youtube cut to an ad about 2/3rds into the video, and that made me really sad. gently caress. That car sounds incredible.

I corrected my typo after you quoted me. Boo. They only really gave a good look at the rear on Top Gear. I just assumed they were same size all around.

I love the mechanism for the spoiler, it just looks so industrial. It's a case of 'gently caress you, this works perfectly' rather than trying to hide it or make it pretty.

The spoiler actually has to lower itself at around 155mph to keep from destroying the suspension in the rear due to downforce. That car is just plain nuts.

This car's been posted before with its amazing paintjob and rev counter in the rear bumper. This car I believe, hasn't. It's cool as poo poo with a slot machine motif... aaaaaaaaaaaand a slot machine in the rear end. Yes it works. Japan really does out-do everyone when it comes to complete madness customising cars. They just take it to the next level of ridiculousness. Why is this??

There's nothing to get. It's a slot machine in the back end of a car simply because they can and nobody has.

If it had an engine that made low-range torque and an auto that didn't suck, it might be respectable. Until you see the Ferrari badge.

I'd say 3-4:1. There's usually one mutant lemon in every generation, like the California or the Scaglietti (I don't care what you say that car was lame).

I like the 400/412, just get one with a clutch pedal. Also, gently caress you the FF is awesome.

Mercedes sent Rosberg out at Silverstone to do a lap with 6 cameras recording a 360 degree field of view. http://www.wired.com/autopia/2014/02/mercedes-f1-360/ You can control the angle of view for the entire lap There's also video of Hamilton and Rosberg driving an E63 AMGS wagon.

Funny, but what the hell were they thinking? At least he had the airbag facing him, if he'd been holding it the other way he could have very easily damaged his wrists/arms. Airbag charges are nothing I'd ever gently caress around with... unless it's at least 10 feet away. Same story with idiots sitting on them and setting them off, great way to gently caress up your back, but I'll laugh
