""As well as some suspension tweaks and special tires, and a few other things." Wet road surface."

sciamop commented on 2010 Acura NSX Screams Around The 'Ring

"If the GT-R took its inspiration from the (relatively) pedestrian 911 Turbo, this car looks like it was inspired by the glorious Ferrari 599..."

sciamop commented on 2009 Infiniti G37 Coupe To Get AWD This Fall, Cheapskates X-static

"The slushbox G37x is a pretty weak alternative to the GT-R -- A far better alternative already exists in the BMW 335xi coupe w/ 6spd manual transmission."

"If the tastes of Jalopnik readers was an accurate reflection of the average car buyer, every vehicle would be offered in only two body styles: 5-door hatch (w/ diesel) and 2-door Camino (w/ chevy smallblock). Keep the 5-door 1-series in Europe."

sciamop commented on 2009 Audi A3 Lineup Revealed

"Wow, you guys must have on your VAG beer goggles -- the 2-door hatch looks like a KIA. Audi needs to release a coupe (a la 128/135i) for US audiences if this platform is to succeed here. If I was in the market for a 5-door hatch, the Mazda3 would have my money."
