Smile RWD Acuras, Hyundai buys BMW, Delorean comes back April Fools thread

Figure why not start a thread chatting about April Fools

The funny thing is a few years ago a lot of things today would have seemed like a joke:

Audi relevant in the USA
Hyundai/Kia with RWD and V-8 luxury cars
Lexus LFA super car
BMW going fwd with tons of SUVs
Benz going fwd
Porsche with two SUVs
Ferrari with a hybrid
McLaren is back

Etc etc.... What are your thoughts? While I wish a LFA
II was coming, there are no plans currently

The next generation GS or LS full fledged F's come with a FULL air suspension (or at least an option).
Oh yeah, with plenty of room under those fenders!
