That income chart makes things pretty clear. Don’t move to Japan to draw anime; move to Japan to voice act in anime.

Nah. Plenty of niche cars have done away with the manual. It would be a mistake to assume every niche market is an enthusiast only market just because one very expensive trim level of one vehicle happens to be. Ferrari sells 7000 cars annually through out all their markets, and the were the first to put the gated…

Manual demand for the very low volume and very expensive GT3 is high for reasons that are specific to that car. You can’t apply that example everywhere. 

The customers understand perfectly; they want all that other stuff minus the manual.

Not before covering him in A1 sauce and gathering a pack of spotted dogs at the bottom of it. There, now you can throw him and he won’t survive.

It’s pretty much guaranteed not to do that, given that Navi will be aimed at the middle of the GPU market, and the PS5 will once again be an SoC design like the ones that come before it. Maybe the PS5 pro will do that with some minor compromises, but expecting that at launch is setting yourself up for disappointment.

People would just wait to buy a used V8 if that’s what they wanted. That’s true even more so now, since you can get a 2.3 or a 5.0 or ~$30k if you make some compromises. If you don’t want to compromise, you can even get a fully loaded 5.0 for slightly less than $30k with warranty, if you go preowned.

Well, between ‘95 and 2000 or so, most of those people were avoiding pony cars because, on top of being a mostly garbage vehicle, the base trim was painfully, unacceptably slow. A lack of sales is what killed off the Camaro/Firebird, made Ford consider killing the Mustang, and prevented Dodge from Jumping back in…

but who in their right mind wouldn’t step up to the V8

Ahh, I remember that time everyone wanted to build a BRZ. Then everyone saw how microscopic the market for Miatas and BRZs were. Then no one wanted to build a BRZ.

You only think you want that. In reality, the top layer of the bag will be edible while the rest will congeal into a soggy potato flavored dish sponge that just gets more stale over the days it would take you to consume it. 

The Vette was already depressed that a new sibling would soon join the family, and that he would no longer be the baby getting all the attention. But after finding out he’d be mid engine? That was the final straw.

You don’t expect them to park with the poors, do you? 

Just bribe the current british ambassador. Save time, but not money. 

It sounds demonic. Like the souls of a thousand professional race drivers long past are powering it.

Casey Hudson: Alright everyone, I-... really, man?

That ship has sailed, friend.

Man look at that glare on the instrument panel. Even in renders they can’t hide it. If LCD instrument clusters are the future, matte screens need to tag along with them.

It's called skill, and the drone pilot clearly has it in spades. 

Just hold the L, man. You can’t dig up.
