Random Automotive Tidbits #1

The BMW X6 is pointless. If you have to have a BMW SUV, buy an X5. It costs less, looks better, and is way more practical.

The new Corolla's taillights look like an old Mazda 6's.

Porsche and Ferrari sell some pretty stupid merchandise.

The 2012 Corvette ZR1 just blasted round the Nurburgring in 7:19.4. If you don't count the Porsche 911 GT2 RS's lap, which I don't because Porsche still hasn't proven the RS went around as fast as they claim, that's the fastest a production car has ever gone around. Incredible.


Do we really need a Mini Cooper Coupe? I know it's a good looking car, but it's actually just a normal Mini Cooper with less head room.


Top Gear's 17th series starts June 26. I can't wait.


The Ferrari 458 really needs a manual gearbox. Paddle shifters are so lame. Get real, Ferrari.


I'm really hoping Dale Jr. gets a win at Pocono this weekend. It's been a while.


You should really check out this month's issue of Motor Trend. It features a comparison of modern muscle cars and the classics.


Thanks for reading. Have a fantastic weekend!
