The Vapourware GT? Sounds legit, where do I put my reserve payment?

I feel as though I'd have to show up in ratted out "nice" clothes, like a dusty tux with tails. Well, one tail, one frayed tail, then totally be uppity about people asking about or looking at the Fauxrarri, explaining that it was a one off custom that Enzo himself just completed for me last month. "Fine young man,…

The title of the "productivity hack" is Don't Just Sit There: How to be more productive during your commute. That title, to me, is about as horrific as an article titled Don't Just Sit There: How to be more productive during your daily shit. There's just some places where maybe we don't need to be that fucking…

At least it should be. I dunno, do average Ferrari owners have enough of a sense of humor to enjoy that, or would it be turned away as sacrilege?

Maybe it's the pedestal effect. I knew the Gallardo was not the Murcielago, so I didn't expect it to be life changing, but I was shaking from adrenaline as I got out. At the last second they moved me from the regular 430 to the Scuderia they'd been talking up all day, so I expected it to be way more than the…

So, if you do put this into a Fiero somehow and you get a Fauxrrari body kit for it, does it become the most legit Fauxrrari ever, or does it get some sort of upgrade?

For me, the first drive I had in a Ferrari (notably not mine, and also, not on a normal street) was underwhelming. I was very excited, but after the Gallardo, I just wasn't a huge fan of the 430 Scuderia...still way better than my car though :)

How about exactly the same, but with modern components? So carbon fiber body panels, engine out of the Boxster (or something cheaper), magnesium wheels.

Ghost would have been proud.

Hyundai Genesis Coupe:

they would adapt and survive

Between that and the probably loss in efficiency from scaling down it's likely untenable for really small applications such as a household or a car. Still, if it knocks a couple bucks off my electricity bill and makes the environment happier, I'm all for it.

Agreed, but it might make sense at the municipal or even neighborhood level.

Why not? They already own the real estate and infrastructure for the power transmission. Converting over to this technology would allow them to lower their overhead substantially. They could even give their customers a few cents off each KWh and say they're passing the savings on while simultaneously increasing…

That was pretty much the gist of my post. It's nice and all to trade out our current power plants for something smaller and more efficient, and if it works half as well as they're claiming, it'll be a huge boon, but the infrastructure is likely to remain right where it is and from my standpoint, the only thing that…

Depends...do you think the crazy restrictive record industry would ever allow people to copy music over the intertubes, or the movie industry allow streaming? You're assuming the energy providers are the only ones holding cards in this scenario.

The kind who likes to think ahead. I'll probably buy a second light bulb sometime in the future ;)

If you could stuff a few hundred KW into a car in lieu of batteries, you'd have portable generators everywhere. Still would need to give a reasonably easy way for people to feed off the engine, but that shouldn't be all that hard.

Excellent, nice to know they believe the design will scale up as well...but I don't need 500MW. Can it scale down? If you could make this generate ~5MW and fit in the space of, say, a refrigerator, then each neighborhood could have one...or if you could scale down to a couple hundred KW and make it fit in a home as…

As the driver jerks the wheel back and fourth...
