    In reply to E'go Revolt: Russian 3000GT Officially Sketched
    It's going to need wider front tires to prevent lots of understeer if it is based on the 3000GT, I think. What is with everyone wanting the "staggard" look, at the sacrifice of proper handling, on AWD cars? Yes, I used the Craigslist spelling (one of many, actually) of "staggered."

    Does this mean a new supply of those hard to find Getrag trannies for 3000GT VR4 owners?

    Weirder still, instead of starting with a VR4 (the 4 wheel drive version of the 3000gt) they have taken the fwd part of a fwd 3000 and welded it to the rear part of a VR4. Perhaps this is a one-off created from 2 parts cars? I don't know but it's crazy alright. Oh and the air intakes in the back will feed a rear mounted radiator, which I assume has coolant lines running to the front of the car? Those guys are smoking some good shit over there.

    @dolo54 blows minds and blows engines!: Source? The front diff is open so that could be problematic.

    Interestingly enough, a gentleman in front of me in the grocery store checkout line yesterday informed me that there's a worldwide shortage of Eggo waffles.

    Now....what were we talking about again?

    @beercheck: It's true. I have them all. And I'm selling them on eBay. OK, not really, but people are selling them on eBay.

    I have a question about those auctions, though. They all have free shipping, but is it frozen shipping? I don't want to receive frozen waffles via regular ground service.

    You could never build a whole car out of Lego on the old 3000GT platform.

    Silly Ruskies with all that potato whisky mash and bears dancing in little hats.

    I'm glad I live in a country that is grounded in reality, not far fetched imaginary places like Russia or Alabama.

    I like it. It is also very nice that it doesn't have the proportions of a FWD (looking at you, Bentley). #bugatti

    I have less problem with the styling (even the chrome) than the fact that this might cost more than a Veyron. It doesn't look like the money. Also, those wheels are hideous. #bugatti

    Someone will buy it, and if they build another one, someone will buy that one, too.

    Fortunately for Bugatti, there is no corollary between wealth and taste. #bugatti

    The vastly excessive chrome is designed to distract viewers from the simple, unpleasant fact that the grille is a urinal. #bugatti

    It's a nice idea, but it's been done already - Gran Turismo, Forza, NFS:Shift, TOCA - instead of notes coming at you, requiring you to finger the right frets in time, road comes at you, requiring you to accelerate, brake, and steer at the right time. There you go... #conceptcars

    Hey. Whoa. A gaming concept that encourages real-world participation and excellence? What the hell?
