A billion times better!  I kinda like it with red tails.

Ray-nough (Renault)

It’s more Alpeen than Alpeena though.

I bet Tesla is going to come out and say the roadster’s top speed is 420mph

There are airplanes slower than a stock minivan. The original Piper Cub had a top speed of 87mph. 

It’s absurd that both driver and manufacturer think that the Tuatara can go FASTER. There are airplanes SLOWER than that thing.

Assuming those were fresh, new tires at the start of his run, look at how worn out they are now.

It’s the biggest aspect of the speed wars and probably the most discussed point on any fast vehicle attempting to go fast.

Someone with better eyes than I have could probably find out from the pic, but they are Michelins. We’ll have more/actual data once the attempt is certified.

An Engineer (me): Yeah, yeah 335/316mph, uh huh, uh huh, ok...what about the tires, did they use specially engineered compounds...I’m assuming they just didn’t use an off the shelf street tire and crossed fingers...maybe talked to Bugatti’s supplier, etc...I NEED to know.  It tends to be the least appreciated aspect

All it needs is the mention of some step-family member.

why do you read it like a pornhub title?

Manchester United thought it would look good on their players this season:

I assume that the production version will have a b-pillar and regular rear doors. 

See, BMW? This is a 4-door coupe!

200 MPH on FULL SELF DRIVING while I sleep off a hangover, BRO

I’m sorry, but they are completely hideous. They are the automotive equivalent of a gaming keyboard that constantly pulses with green light. They are as attractive as a middle-aged cyclist in a multi-color spandex leotard. They are ghastly.

With numbers like that, I might be inclined to have a healthy dose of skepticism about this whole thing, except you link the Lucid Air article right in the middle of this one.

It’s absurd that anyone with $150,000 can just place an order for this level of rolling vehicular manslaughter from the factory. If you want to run faster than 12s, you should have to build it yourself.”

Do you also want me to get off your lawn?

Actually, they're both M3s, and BMW is really stupid.
