Well, there's this too. Which was significantly less disappointing than the Prowler and the SSR.

I don't mean to be a Debbie Downer but there are 2 reasons 3D printing is currently impractical for car bodies aside material performance: cost and speed of production. Both are essentially linked.

Every little bit helps. Aero, low rolling resistance tires, low drag bearings, improved engine efficiency, all of these things get you fuel efficiency and OEMs don't neglect any of them when looking for fuel economy.

Wagnerrp replied to me instead of you. He's got pretty much everything I was going to say. I used to have a plot that put air drag in terms of horsepower. It makes it pretty clear that you need a more powerful engine to increase top speed or vice versa.

I am going to take a round about way of answering your question. Not because I want to dodge it but because I agree with your frustration and I don't want this conversation to devolve into requiring some kind of qualifier.

I feel like Travis Okulski shouldn't be complaining about what he describes as the "melty ass" of the new Mercedes CLA45 AMG after seeing this.

Unfortunately aero will always matter. Every Jalop's favorite car to hate, the Toyota Prius, is actually one of the most aerodynamic cars on the market. This is because they want the best fuel efficiency and the way that they do it is by reducing air drag so you're wasting less energy just moving air around.

The Veyron has no racing history. Bugatti absolutely has racing history but they didn't build the Veyron like a racecar and they haven't built a racecar in years.

Very well put.

Brushed aluminum is cool. I'm still not a fan of the Veyron. Sorry.

Funny you say that because one of the guys I ride with skis and I snowboard. We have had collisions on the slopes.

The 959 is most definitely a super car. Let's not forget all of the batshit insane Can-Am cars that had to be homologated as well.

At first I was like, "oh cool, you can ride a bike on the 'Ring." Then I watched the whole video. Now I'm like, "that's cool, I don't really need to ride a bike on the 'Ring."

I'm assuming that casualties means something different than what I'm familiar with. In this instance, casualties means injuries?

Here's a cool video made by one of the guys I worked with at Hawker Beechcraft.

I think it was George Carlin that said, "If I can touch 'em, they're real."

That could still be a software issue too.

I wasn't saying that you can't get them with a stick, it just seems like every time I go looking for a GM product, it has an automatic. Obviously this isn't the case but it seems like it's really common.

Because it wasn't designed by a dedicated software group and it's marked up for people that say things like "ooh, shiny!"
