It’s a dart. Or a missile. Its performance comes from thrust not lift, is what I’m getting at. Or more accurately, its relative thrust to drag. Yes, there is some lift, but its tiny compared to it just being a low drag dart. It’s a clever interpretation of what a paper airplane is...but I would say this is a record

Tesla Model 3. I like the size, the price, the exterior styling, and could, I guess, live with the interior. I can afford it, and in 2 or 3 years will likely be looking for something electric. But the company owner is a deal breaking flaw for me (and especially my wife).

Odd that On Her Majesty’s Secret Service is still among the best Bond movies despite Lazenby. Diana Rigg is Bond’s best match ever, Telly Savalas is arguably the best, at least most purposeful, Blofeld and John Barry contributes his best Bond score. Not worthwhile, essential. 

Lazenby was fine and OHMSS is one of the top five best Bond movies.

Widely considered to be one of the best films in the series though.

For real, each slide got uglier than the next. What in the fuck...

$300,000 for a Cadillac???!!!! Really? Will anyone looking to spend $300,000 on a car seriously consider a GM product?

Even the little M2 is ugly. Not as hideous as the big ones, but still ugly. 

BMW redesigned the 7 Series for 2023 with love-it-or run-from-it styling.

Dear BMW, contrary to popular belief, there are still people with eyes in this world, please stop assaulting us.

The only new car from VAG is the ID.7? No new Audi or Porsche? That can’t be right.

The website for that abomination is a highly entertaining disaster. From the lack even the most basic proofreading to the blatantly false advertising, the grift is so obvious that it’s hard to tell if it’s sincere or satire. Observe:

The MX-6, I owned that car (‘93 I think) but in Burgundy with a tan interior. Wasn’t my first choice in color but it was NOS and the dealer cut me a great deal. I loved that car, great drive train with the smoothest little six I’ve ever driven. Weird front end, beautiful rear. Great DD and a decent AutoX’er. Wasn’t

Saturn Astra, a lot of cars I forget because kind of anonymous, boring mid-size people movers. The Astra is kind of cool looking, saw one on the street and thought, what the heck is that? Cute little car. I don’t think they sold a lot of them.

I think the next escalation would be in sanctions and would be something like:

Yeah right.
