Ever since we bought a Volt I’ve changed my highway mindset to be like yours. Cruising for efficiency and staying out of the way. Like you said, it’s refreshing, and almost relaxing.

They drafted off the Suburban? That’s stupid, cheating, and should invalidate any record.

Guess what? They could go even farther/quicker if they put the Tesla on a trailer behind the ‘burban!

Right, because the existing electric infrastructure is based around coal, nobody should buy an electric car and attempt any sort of change, right?

People still die in car crashes, so why bother wearing seatbelts?

My DD (as of yesterday) is a 2014 Volt, which as a commuter, in Sport mode, is surprisingly entertaining to drive.

My weekend car is a Corvette. Best of both worlds!

Seconded. With the targa top that someone else mentioned.

... As a retirement gift to themselves?

Since he’d be fuelling the RR anyway, and presumably isn’t doing so while it’s at the dealer, I think adding fuel costs for the rental car is unnecessary.

Exactly. If I owned a Limo company in the south or west I’d be all over this and I bet it’d make me a mint.

I had one. It was shit.

I live in Chicago and DD an ‘04 XJ8. 300hp V8, 300lb-ft and RWD. It was a bit scary without snow tires, but with snow tires it’s completely manageable (except through snow that’s deeper than the bumper).

The bigger concern is the salt — Are you willing to expose a new Mustang to that? If you can swing it, get a cheap…

Honda Beat.

It has history... http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rolls-Roy…

Exhaust the gases from the onboard GM Ecotec 4-cylinder generator?

Why do you think Supra values won’t increase in the future? The kids who were early teens when Fast & Furious first came out are nowhere near coming into money yet. I see that generation of Supra going much higher once they’re at Barrett-Jackson.

That curve at the top of the doors has always driven me nuts. What the hell was the designer thinking?!

My high school girlfriend had a black NX2000, with T-Tops. Fun little car!

I had one — Yes, it wasn’t a 3-Series, but for a Cadillac in the late 90s it was stupendous.

I just honestly believe that if they don’t the bike will die.

With 222k on the clock? No.
