Having a rear wheel that could turn to perpendicular at any speed was admittedly a serious flaw. That said, I'd love to see someone construct a modern interpretation of the Dymaxion given what we've learned over the past 80 years.

It's like someone took a Triumph Vitesse and stretched onto a Rambler chassis and then gave it an interior from a 70"s Audi 100LS. Nice!
Lotus tuning + manual transmission = Where do I sign?
Who were the advertising wizards that thought of THAT one!

The Jeep Wagoneer was produced with little changes from the early 60s to the 90s. The XJ was killed only because it would fail to meet ever more stringent government regulations.

Good call with the L-body Mopars. Better than the GLHS, there was the Shelby-modified Charger (I'm talking about the rare Shelby, not the more everyday Dodge Charger Shelby, even though I liked them, too.) Rarer still, there was a California Shelby version of the Rampage. If any of those are still around, they are the…
This is precisely how I'd like to park my Lotus Exige at my high rise penthouse in Logravitiopolis.
Oddly enough, by using over the top CGI and having supercars flip & roll hundreds of yards, they are making the movie even MORE faithful to its roots. I will eventually see this movie, most likely when it hits the DVD bargain bin at Walmart. The only thing that would make me enjoy the non-automotive parts is if they…
