Porsche 917!

Problem with this is that the local franchise probably doesn’t have 3-phase electric service (required for fast chargers), may not have 3-phase service available if they wanted to add fast chargers, or probably won’t want to foot the bill for installing fast chargers, which could cost in excess of $50k to purchase the…

Add to that the fact that, at least in the GTP class, the fuel the cars use is 60% sustainable, with the goal to be 100% sustainable in the next year or two. Mass produced sustainable/synthetic fuels will be a game changer, especially if the ability to convert a current ICE vehicle is minimal.

I have an S (2008 S4 Avant) and RS (2008 RS4), combined 235,000 miles. Not a single issue and the build quality, even after 14 years, is light years higher that anything Tesla offers. Regular maintenance and they will run for years trouble free and are way more fun to drive than any Tesla.

BMW will probably charge a subscription fee to use the screen.

Jalopnik really needs a laughing emoji.  That is the COD!!!

Fuck you! Don’t generalize an entire generation because of a few pieces of shit!

You should see a doctor!

The electric infrastructure is at a tipping point.  The grid can barely handle the electrical load demand now.  There was a story published yesterday about rolling blackouts in California this summer, largely due to increased EV sales.  

ESPN

The ESPN feed is the British Sky TV feed.  They are the British announcers.

Do a little research before you chime in.  I have a 2008 RS4 that I’ve had for 6 years and 55k miles.  Parts for this a cheaper than parts for my wife’s 2013 Prius ($124 each for sway bar drop links???  Fuck you Toyota!)  I’ve never had a single issue with anything on this car and it has never let me down or left me…

You’re thinking S4. The timing chain guide issue on these (and the first gen R8) are metal. And before you go shitting on these, try owning one. I have a 2008 RS4 that I’ve had for 6 years and 55k miles. I change oil every 5k miles and use only LiquiMoly. The car runs like a dream and has never let me down. It’s,…

How quickly all of you Hamilton-lovers forget...he was exactly the same as Max at the start of his career.  And Hamilton is not without fault this season-I’m thinking specifically about Silverstone where everyone who knows the track has said you don’t try to pass at that turn.  Hamilton over cooked it and Max paid the…

I know at least 4 Prius owners that have well over 200,000 miles on theirs and they still have the original hybrid battery.  My wife just bought a 2013 Prius V with 351,000 on it.  It was a salesman car and the interior is like new.  She had a 2006 Prius that she gave to her daughter last year and hated driving my…

What about Porsche?  Ferdinand Porsche, who created the Beetle, designed and built Tiger tanks during the war.  Are you hating on everything Porsche too?

They really need to add a laughing emoji!  And I assume the “specific circumstances” are down hill with a heavy tail wind.

Watch some of the Youtube videos the makers of the Quickjacks have. The shit they do to them to show how over built they are is amazing. I love the QJs a buddy of mine and I have. We’ve used them on my two Audis (S4 Avant and RS4) my wife’s Prius, my son’s Honda HRV, my buddy’s Toureg and WRX STI and his wife’s Mini…

I can’t stand Stroll! Billionaire daddy has to buy a team so he can play with the big boys. And there’s absolutely no justification to let Perez go and keep Stroll other than daddy. If it weren’t for the fact that Racing Point used Mercedes’ 2019 blueprints to build there 2020 car, Stroll would have had another shit…

The United States government kills a million babies a year?  I think I would have read about that somewhere.
