Most 90s cars outside of Corvettes, Vipers, and most top-trim muscle cars were limited to that.

0-60 in 5.7s is slow?

I’m fairly sure I have a pretty strong grasp of how the economy works.

That’s a really easy maze.

Investors don’t “hoard” profits. Even if you have millions sitting in a bank account, that capital is used to give out loans at a lower interest rate. Any money that’s not invested, is being spent for products, which are made by people.

The problem is that some things only work when adopted on a large scale, like vaccines, and the net gain for the many often far surpasses the net loss of the few. This is why public education, fire departments, health care, and the military exists.

That’s not how an economy works. When it’s cheaper to have a robot do a job than it is to have skilled labor (which, in many countries and industries, it’s actually much cheaper for humans to do it!) then the lower overhead reduces the cost of the final product, or increases the profit of the business, which in turn…

Doing one illegal thing doesn’t invalidate everything you have to say thereafter. Not only that, but he’s made a strong anti-street racing case since then and heavily discouraged people from following in his footsteps.

Pre-turbo 280ZX, and even the turbo models weren’t that fast. They were reliable, but weighed ~2800-3000 lbs and only had 5-10 HP more than the 240Z. Combine that is abysmally bad aerodynamics (fixed with the Z31) it was sorta disappointing.

Bingo. First car is for people hauling.

This is the type of thing that gets started before the board hears about it, and one member is pulled aside by a chief engineer and they say. “Look, we can’t meet emissions.” So they meet in a room with an accountant who goes “It’s going to cost $20bn of redevelopment and lost revenue, we’re going to have to skip a…

Because Tesla is certainly not going to have any scandals in the next 10 years. Not like SpaceX, SolarCity, and Paypal ever had scandals, nope, not at all.

Some Mercedes use GPS to determine adaptive cruise control speeds to save fuel by avoiding accelleration on hills and between curves.

It wouldn’t be lacking power because a dyno test is very different from an emissions test, they certainly programmed it to run at full power when at full throttle.

That, and it wouldn’t run in clean mode in a full dyno test anyway because the EPA isn’t running the car at full throttle when testing emissions.

Does it pass the Turing Test?

15 year old high revving engine in an SUV. That’s the reality of it.

She just released the R32 and Z32, so hell yeah I’d stick my dick in her back then.

Somewhere out there, Tavarish has a garage full of 2015 TDI Sportwagens that he bought yesterday.
