    Word on the Twitterverse is that Tony wins the rights to use Team Lotus in F1. Group Lotus can use Lotus by itself

    So, there's still Team Lotus, powered by Renault, and Lotus Renault.

    Group Lotus will appeal, naturally.

    It looks like King Solomon is alive and well and serving as a judge in the British judicial system. Cutting this baby in half solves nothing.

    No different than when Mitsubishi and Dodge made the same cars with different badging 30 years ago.

    While the cars you showed in the pics look damn similiar, I can see same differences among different flavors of Hondas, Mercedes, BMW's, Suburu's and a handful of others.

    I think if you were to totally debadge all the common cars, the only one I can really identify would be a BUICK.
