[s-cars] LAC: Bond, James Bond - JNR

[Theodore Chen]

what, the audi R8 isn't on that list?

i drove my friend's new R8 with R-tronic a few weeks ago.  i drove it hard, at my friend's urging, but he was the one JNR-ing it, not me.  can you say 140 mph on the 405 in LA?  to be honest, i loved the R8, but i enjoyed my other friend's viper GTS more.  i feel that modern cars are somewhat sterile.  they are fast and handle very well, but they are more isolated.  ABS, traction control, stability control, active steering, dynamic roll control, torque vectoring, etc. - modern motoring is becoming more like driving a video game.

you guys may think me nuts, but i just passed on a friend's immaculate '03 jaguar s-type r with 64k miles for $14k.  i just couldn't see myself enjoying driving it as much as the UrS4.

-t.

That's one of the very few cars that I'd ditch the vette for- V12 Aston or
GT3 Porsche.
