I don't really understand why someone would hate it, this seems to be more of a case of not understanding the purpose for it.

Also, there are a lot of cases there badge engineering involves a model made by a brand with no presence or no dealer network in a given market, rebranded as something people are familiar with.

Such as the Daewoo platforms sold as GM brand vehicles. In those markets they're not actually competing with the original product because it's not there, but they're filling a role for the brand and saving them the resources that would be required to develop a new model.

All of these manufacturers are businesses first, it would be silly to hold not wanting to waste lots of time and money and R&D for no good reason against them.

I mean badge engineering literally benefits everyone involved, both brands, as well as the consumer, by providing a wider selection of vehicles on the market.

@Matt thinks the best vehicle platform is the pl73

he says the best cars ever are all pl73 based

You want a large sedan based on the Peel P50

you want a car with only rear wheel steering

you think it will be the safest

It works for forklifts. Front wheel drive, rear wheel steering, 70/30 weight distribution.

Great for high speed sweeping corners.

That's a very fat profile, looks similar to the new NSX.

I wonder if it will be as garbage as the new nsx

The existing mid-engined Corvette Daytona Prototype is a lot more like what I would hope for in the profile of a mid-engined Corvette road car, but this definitely looks a lot more like reality.

maybe it will compete with

the m8 gte

I'm sure it will

Maybe they'll pull a BMW and campaign a car in a "production based class" for a whole season without an equivalent road car actually being available to the public.

lol

lol

man

someone should make biking a religion

and make motorcycle garments a mandatory clothing part

I want to start a religion where you use a balacava when you are in public as they have shown hiding your face for religus reason is just fine

that way they'd have to allow people to go into courts and banks wearing full bike gear if they identified as a biker

cant find the picture of it atm. but at the bank in longyearbyen there is a sign that says weapons and balaclavas are not allowed in the bank 😛

but burkas ok

good that my goverment did pass the same law as denmark on that shit, but in not in full effect yet

I don't support banning clothing

mainly because it's step one to banning masks and shit which means no anonymous protests

plus I don't wanna be banned from wearing my motorcycle helmet

Dude you take the helmet off when you go into the petrol station to pay

I don't

wtf

only once in over 10 years have i been asked to
