Ah crap, I missed that part because I sometimes skim things...eff... That really is a fantastic thing. Thanks for sharing!

Roush chassis, Ford drivetrain, AM General manufacturing I think.

You can have mine! I hate that thing. Try getting the remote from it when it's watching Hoise of Cards!

The #1 thing a rotary has going for it is power to external displacement which can't be beat.

Okay, I'm convinced that I don't really want one.

VW "designed"/build the golf 650 in 6 month.

Holy shit, i've been trying to figure out what the hell that is for almost 2 years!

Details are here on the late 50s u-Bahn D types in Pyongyang: http://www.pyongyang-metro.com . They bought them in 2000, yesterday by DPRK standards, so I'd have little trouble believing they're still in service.

fenders. Why must they have that huge flat area. It's like they designed the car to be 1 foot wider, then realized it was to wide. Then they said "just lop some of each side". Some manufactures do it better than others. Nissan totally fucks it up.

Sure, Benz toyed with their Monoblade articulated wiper system a while back, but you don't hear much about that now, and I can't think of any new car that has a really novel take on the wiper.

Marketing VPs indeed. This seems like the opposite of an enthusiast car. Automatic only, so-so handling, and the best quality is silly electronic gizmos. The 0-60 time becomes much less impressive when you see what else you can get for $55k.

The gotdamned flapper motor on the intake in turbocharged VWs. The lil shit is going to fail & you will have to buy a new intake because the cocksuckers won't sell you just the motor.

Electric air conditioning compressors already exist for hybrid and electric vehicles.

What needs a redesign are all the bad attempts to fix to things that weren't broken in the first place.

Yes!!! This! This! And more this!!!

It almost seems like every car component has been reinvented in the last 20 years. I almost wish there was a way to redesign the drivers instead. Bunch of fucking idiots on the roads nowadays.
