Yeah. It seems he forgot about high beltlines, huge a-pillars, headlights that bulge out from the bodywork, and blunt/flat front ends.

Also, the ‘67-’68 was based on the Fairlane, not the Falcon, so they could fit the big block V8's into them.
Can somebody please 3D scan all components of a Lamborghini Miura and put it on Thingiverse?
Another question is what single car (excluding pickup trucks) has had the most types of engine configurations? For example, the Fox mustang had inline fours (both turbo and NA), inline 6, V6, and V8. Most of those were available with both Manual and Automatic transmission.
She has an Elise and drives it all over Europe.
The more interesting VIN decoder document that appears to have surfaced today is the one for 2021 Mustang, which seems to add a Mach 1, but lose Bullitt and GT350.
Really do wish I could find my ‘76 fast RWD V8-powered Swedish 2-door sedan that rusts horribly, to be honest.
So if my math is correct at $1b for 80,000 ventilators, that works out to roughly $12,500 a piece. I guess the old adage “good, fast, cheap, pick any two” isn’t just for racecars.
What you need to fund this project is an investor. Seems risky as hell, but maybe less so than the current stock market.
If the brake “attention” feature is the one where the brake lights flash quickly like 5 times every single time the driver hits the brakes, then they should be burned with fire. Following someone with this “feature” in traffic is ridiculously annoying. It’s like following a red strobe light.
And now, our entire country is run by a low wattage bulb that has changed from white to orange.
This is going to be the future of pretty much any car with LED headlights or taillights. Replacements will be super expensive, or not available at all. How much and when depends on the value and production number of the vehicle in question. Ironically, cars with old incandescent lights can easily have them…
If you want to go more contemporary, the Lotus Elise is probably the last car sold in the US that really adopts this “not there if you don’t need it” ethos.
I’ve often wondered why they can’t put train tracks in the median between highways. Even if they had to elevate them from time to time, seems like it could cost less than building on new land.
Those cars fully complied with all regulations, and if i recall correctly, actually had a lower incidence of rear end fires than other police cars. Either way, a 70mph rear-ender far exceeds any regulated test, which is what often happened to PI’s parked on the shoulder of a highway.
I can’t speak for the other versions, but whenever I do a search for 2001 Bullitt versions they all seem to be in great shape, regardless of mileage.
I think the disappointing thing is that it seems as though Ford has taken a look at the future of the Mustang, decided it isn’t good, and thusly that it was a good idea to withdraw all that brand equity now, while they still have it. Mustang sales are dwindling, V8's days seem to be numbered, coupes don’t really sell, …
Electric cars aren’t 12V. COTD stands.
I’m glad I got to spend a good bit of my life where the past and the future were built around the idea of democratization of travel as opposed to the demonization of travel. Obviously there are all kinds of problems to be solved, but who wants to live in a society who’s vision for the future is to just tax everyone…
I drive a Lotus Elise and hope that nobody ever includes them as data points in a study like this. Ignorance is bliss. Wheeeeeeeeee!!
