That guy is my hero.

Good news! There *is* a modern version of the Typhoon.

Right, but the Boomers gave all the political power to theirs.

Gen X here. We consider ourselves lucky only because Millenials got fucked so much worse. But other than that, we’re well and proper fucked.

Have you ever even seen a Ferrari up close? An F40 or F50 has carbon fiber that looks like it was laid by drunken children and welds that would disqualify an art car from entry into Burning Man. Yet, they’re million-dollar cars.

The Supercharger network is the true enterprise value of Tesla. The car business is just a marketing expense.

They can survive as an unprofitable company for several more years. The ultimate fate of Tesla is to be the next large energy company, and probably also to license the Autopilot system to other companies. So it will be like Amazon - reinvesting in platform growth for a long, long time, and then suddenly a juggernaut

I have a friend with the current S63 Coupe. He’s a 42-year-old gay guy in LA. He says it gets him acres of Millenial booty. It’s basically a business card that lets people know you’re a potential sugar daddy.

Ah, no. This is one of the beautiful things about the S-Class coupe. It’s so damn large, and the doors so long, that the back seat is a perfectly good option for a six-foot-tall adult. There’s about as much leg and headroom as an E-Class sedan.

My experience is that the Beluga black caviar tastes like miso and the pussy lips of a young Russian Instagram model. YMMV.

Just had a similar thing happen in my W220. It looks pretty ghetto right now.

The first 20 minutes of that movie got imprinted on my pre-teen brain as “you must move to sunny California, buy an Italian supercar, and wind it out somewhere in the Mojave Desert.”

I gotta admit, I kind of miss mini trucks. Especially the “bed dance” competitions.

Let me jog your memory...

Erm, you know that Nazi Germany and imperial Japan were on the same side of that war, right? Axis Powers ring a bell? You may have played the video game version of it.

Let’s be clear which Countach we’re talking about:

Or make an ATS Coupe with the modern LT1 in it. The ATS-V is a great piece of engineering, but the peaky motor and racer scoops/slats don’t say luxury. Pair the demure styling and sublime ride of the ATS 3.6 with a boatload of smooth V-8 torque, and you’ve got a worthy successor to the Eldorado.

Exactly! And you can get a three-pedal manual, so it’s even better in that respect than a boattail ‘Riv.

Yeah, this. The Challenger is America’s 6-Series. I love it, pretty much for all the reasons people on the Internet hate it.
