After seeing the concept in person, the production version felt like a personal betrayal.

Why hast thou forsaken me, FHI?!?!?

You mean for a “turn-key” car. I wish it were that easy.
You put in the sweat equity and live with some stock Subaru parts, you can build one for $15k.

As much as I love the idea of an open-top toy, the coupe looks soooooo good I’d have to build that version.

So you trade an attractive rear end for a turbo engine?

My IDP expired a year ago but the license that it’s a translation of is good for another year. It’s such a sketchy system that I’m just gonna keep in in the glove box and not worry about getting a new one till my license expires.

I live in Germany and I can tell you, that’s a stone cold fact.

Same thing with Ryan Air here in Europe. We’re so close to a major airport it’s not even close to worth the hassle to save less than $100. I have a good job, my dignity isn’t as cheap as it used to be...

Obligatory

From my knowledge of German companies and management in general, I find it VERY difficult to believe that this doesn’t go all the way to the top.

No way! Seriously?

The mStand Laptop Stand supports the Macbook Pro.

And I’ll go right back to waiting for a price drop. :)

Cool little piece of plastic. Just not $15 cool. :-\

I feel bad for parents that are caught between this, their kid, and the kid’s friends who inevitably have every damn one of these delivered the day they come out.

Always blame the guy that just left. Always.

I got to sit in one at IAA last week. The seats pinched me in the thigh, not the waste or the hips but the thigh. That has me a little worried, but otherwise it’s a great car inside and out. The pedal box is perfect for heel/toe. Can’t wait to drive one.

Driver never touches the brakes. Not even a little. I understated that you shouldn’t panic and slam on the brakes with 2 wheels in the grass, but with modern ABS and traction control, slowing down a bit might have helped.

Nurburgring is proof that godman loves us and wants us to be happy.

It’s a one way public toll road. You don’t need a helmet on the Autobahn either. ;-)
