- 4X4 and off-roading features in most SUV's are gone to waste and they should make a cheaper trim models with more basic or even none of those off road stuff. Considering how common SUV's here like Toyota Land Cruiser's, Nissan Patrol Y62's and Chevrolet Tahoe's are mostly used on city and highway roads.
- Wagons are underated, why do you need a crossover (i might add SUV's as well) when Wagons and Hatchbacks can do the job well?

The S14 Is not all that.

First one kinda is because most people I know think it might look way to boy racer for it's own sake. The second not so much, but people can consider they sacrifice a bit too much to justfy their purpose and/or price (confort, for example)

Change S14 to S13 and then it's unpopular over where I'm at.

Stance is pretty sick, actually. If done right and not cheaply and hastily done on a greasy abused old Civic on budget wheels then it can look very good. Lots of people here and in other "pure car enthusiasts" places give it too much flak for no reason really

Aston Rapide > Rapide S. Love the Rapide but the new grille ruins the entire car for me, never saw anybody on the internet point this out so I guess it's unpopular?
I know this was 2 weeks ago, but I feel the urge to come back to this. It's still stupid LaFerrari gets all the internet jokes because almost every Ferrari has a name like this, from the F355 to F430, to the Ferrari FerrariFour and Ferrari Enzo Ferrari.

I'm pretty sure that officially, that car is called Enzo Ferrari. Not the Ferrari Enzo, not the Ferrari Enzo Ferrari. It's just the Enzo Ferrari. Yes, it bucks the trend of car name tropes and conventions.
It's a stupid name either way. Ferrari F60 would have been thematically better and keeping in touch with its predecessors.

Mashing the pedal in an electric car isn't drag racing, and standing-start acceleration tests are used plenty for comparison purposes by 'sophisticated Europeans.'
For the record, this is drag racing:
Sure, road racing is more my thing but I certainly respect the skill necessary to pilot something with rubber tires to over 300mph in under 4 seconds from a stop. "Your car does 0-60 in 3.2 seconds? Mine does it 3 seconds quicker."

Tesla is a car with blistering acceleration but its not a car made for tackling tracks, it's an everyday car. I haven't seen a single video comparing it on a race track with something. Only "drag" racing. Does anyone have some lap times of Model S and competition like S8 or S65? However if future transport will be awesome like Tesla, it will be amazing.
Vanquish, F Type and GranTurismo are prettiest cars on sale by far.
Bleagh, I wonder is it slower that much around the track. Is it wrong to ask for lap times? To be interested? It's not like it's uncapable handling a track (it couldn't handle Nurburgring however). I never said that I don't want lap times just because they're not specialised for them.
I think that if you want to see what car is faster and has better performance overall, there are more tests than standing starts. Anyways I don't want arguments anymore.

My point isn't that you shouldn't want to know these things, but that this data most likely doesn't exist because they're luxury cars, and get tested as such.
As for the drag racing argument; I don't think it's overrated because a good drag race can be pretty entertaining, but the amount of supercar on supercar or Tesla on anything else videos means they get shared the most, and they're a tad boring after you've watched a few. And no, I'm neither an American drag racer or a Tesla fan (well, I am a bit but not how you're thinking of them).
Dear God, I guess that there is Tesla bias here.
The reason why I find Model S overrated is because of that "hoi Tesla cen bit your S8 , without polluting the Earth." A classic comment on a "drag" race . But whoever says "but S8 would beat it on a racetrack, where it isnt all about acceleration" would end upmolested criticised . Most of the fans of Tesla hate tracks but it is where it would be beat by any supercar or even much weaker cars. Tesla isn't just that quick.
Actaully S8 and S65 are performance oriented luxury cars. Maybe not track monsters but far faster than lower models. And there is a Maybach for pure luxury.
Another opinion: Speed limiters (250kph ones) are useless.
That looks opinion doesn't prove my bias. In fact, its a seperate opinion.
