Making it see properly is the entire problem.

Supercars are great purely because of how absurd they are. Driving one around in the real world is a lot like someone wearing a Halloween costume in the middle of August. Sure, it’s impractical and pointless, but it brightens up the day just a bit by existing.

Technically speaking, it doesn’t matter if it’s a competitive advantage or not, the legal problem is collusion to control the market.

At a very high level, it’s exactly what anti-trust laws were meant to prevent: A single company or organization setting the standard for the entire country.

The last gen of Vipers did cost well over $150k new. Accounting for inflation a ‘97 Viper GTS cost $105k.

Depends on the use case I guess. I want to know if the engine or transmission is likely to fail catastrophically and make the care useless.  A flimsy piece of trim or bricked infotainment is totally unimportant in comparison.

If only this wasn’t one of the ugliest body designs ever put on a sports car.

Possibly the same lap, but from outside. Crazy that you can hear it coming from several miles away.

There’s an easy solution to your first problem, do what you’re supposed to and always stop at yellow, unless you’re already in the intersection when it changes.

100,000 miles at 10MPG is only about $20k more than 100,000 miles at 30MPG. Insignificant when you’re already paying ~$100k over what the 30MPG car would cost.

Because bluetooth is a garbage standard that didn’t work well in 2000 and is still crap today.

Well you can buy one new right now for $50k, so I’d certainly hope not...

Anyone else think that almost everything Zagato gets their hands on looks terrible?  Kind of like they take the base car and fill it up like a balloon.

Nobody likes to hear it, but that’s the kind of problem that capitalism introduces. There’s no way to centralize anything even if the service only functions when it’s centralized (e.g. why Uber and Lyft are popular: they have the volume to make the service functional).

Exactly.  Uber shouldn’t be spending ANY money.  Rent a couple dozen servers to hold the app together, and that’s it.  Fares come in, take your x% cut, send the rest to the driver.  End of story.

There’s a really simple solution here:

You’d have a hatchback, not a sedan.  Somewhere between slightly and completely different markets.

So how is Uber losing money again? It costs next to zero to keep an already-developed app running.  Aside from the cost of servers, all of their income should be pure profit.

The median home price across the entire country is just a tad over $200k.

Most of Ohio does not get very much snow, that’s just Cleveland. We see more than an inch just once or twice a year in Columbus.
