As I understand it, this isn't the last V12, but the last that isn't hybridised.

They need us Poors to read-about and covet this car, so we can fully appreciate what the Haves are driving. One buys these for the image more than for the experience. If it’s a secret, that reduces the allure. 

Musk is only about free speech when it’s good for him. Otherwise it’s non-disclosure agreements and firings.

I love how well they nailed the rain on the windows, but I can’t help but be disappointed, by comparison (especially because the effects on the windows are so good), by the generic puff clouds coming off the back of the cars - especially when those are still there through most of a couple of those tunnels, where the…

You only pay one way.  BUT, a large proportion of the traffic is trucks who pay a lot more than $16 one way.  I bet they clear a billion dollars a year easily

Left rear looks 1.5 psi off. Dealership used an Analog gauge.

Honestly....the number of things I wouldn’t do dressed as an F1 pitcrew member is pretty small.

Quake 2 being id’s best single player game is a corona of the sun level hot take. Doom plays a hell of a lot better today.

Srsly? Jeebus, that’s gotta be the winner of the “Least Reliable Honda Product” award, beating out the previous record-holder, a rebuilt-title 78 CIVIC from Detroit.

Sadly the people in charge of this decision care not at all about any commenters on the site.

Hey guys,

That’s correct. The Rover V8 was the aluminum Buick 215. It debuted in some BOP (Buick, Oldsmobile and Pontiac) models in 1961, but was expensive to manufacture and—in the early stages—had quality control woes. Not only that, it required special care that a lot of American owners and shops were ill-prepared to deal…

And, of course, there was the Discovery I’s Honda clone, the Crossroad. See, while Honda USA relied upon Isuzu for its first couple of SUVs (the Passport and the SLX), Honda of Japan asked their new friends at Rover Group—with whom they had already co-developed several cars—to borrow the Discovery I and badge that as…

To clarify, I definitely meant the gas engine there! I went ahead and made that part read clearer. :)

The petrol v8 has Buick DNA. The td does not. 

I tried to make one with a flashlight and a plastic bat when I was 8 because who didn’t?

I know they didn’t have cell phones in the ‘30s, but couldn’t he have borrowed a couple of two-way wrist radios from Dick Tracy? (Nope, turns out those weren’t “invented” until 1946. Thanks, Google.)

Thanks. That’s pretty lo-tech and, of course, very sexy.

He traces the light beam to its origin, which is a roof where Commissioner Gordon is waiting, and he explains the problem to Batman

I never understood what Wayne does after seeing the bat signal (is he always looking up at the sky?). Does he call the police dept. with a burner phone to find out where the problem is? I have creepy neighbors who listen to police scanners all day and night. Surely Batman has the smarts and the money to design a call…
