That guy has the right mix of skill and total disregard for personal welfare to go pro.

The G-wagen, but only in G300TD form, not this limp-dick compensator G65.

Dozens. Literally DOZENS of people are heartbroken.

A previous generation LS460 hits a lot of these, except the screen concerns. But this guy is crazy and that is coming from a guy that wished his Lexus had manual crank windows.

I think you are underestimating the fundamental economics that make quadcopters so appealing. Comparable helicopters (two seater manual ones) are incredibly difficult to fly and have much greater “point of failure” issues. Once the electronics are sorted out self-flying quadcopters will be more reliable at a fraction

The G65/63 are shame embarrasing douche-wagons. Shit on-road, shit off-road. Subtable only for the second wives that are desperate to “leak” their sex tape. They broadcast “I am a horrible person that makes horrible choices”. Now, the G300TD, on the other hand is badass.

I am not so sure. They get 100% of the fare, have no driver-acquisition costs (it costs them about $410 to get a new driver to sign up), no logisitical management cost, can keep the fleet operational 24/7 (they could be used as delivery vehicles overnight), they can flex the fleet more easily (keep lots of them

Except in the US where longshoreman have succesfully lobbied to prevent mechanization and remain 10X the price to land items vs. the rest of the world. PRESTO people land things in Mexico and us trains to make deliveries. Idiots.

Yes. I stared at it numerous times watching the aging plastic cups get older. Wondering when they were going to give out.

I had a 88 560sl until last year. Good car. Really astoundingly overbuilt. At the same time maddengingly annoying to work on. Hidden bolts mean have to reaserch the size of bolt before bliding fishing it behind the firewall. And fuck Jettronic.

Spending 100% of the miles driving through snow-bumps and winter potholes will wreck ball joins and bearings much faster than a standard car. Especially when the car is fully loaded.

Speed <> Fun. I have a 911 S now. Its faster in every way. Not sure its more fun than my old miata.

Its sexy as hell, but I have a hard believe many people will pick this over a p90D, which is faster and costs less.

No I agree with you. As beater toy that you do just enough to keep rolling, it really is an interesting option. I am now seriously considering picking one up for my wife for fun.

I was about to call BS on this, but I just checked my local craigslist. I’ll be damned. That said, as a former miata owner, part of the appeal was the maintenance was cheap and easy. Not something I would use when describing a Z3. Still, a very interesting option.

Counterpoint: I found it interesting and as a person that likes cars and travel feel it is appropriate.

Bland? Care to point out a better looking sedan in the $30k range? Its all subjective of course, but liking a well designed, ultra-safe, technologically advanced fuel-efficient car doesn’t make anyone a “sheeple”. I don’t want one (sorry, I hate mother earth and I love my V8s and flat sixes) but you seem ignorant when

Well, not moisture directly, its capacitance like an older style touch-screen. However, that at certain mostures, the wood and human body can measure at the same rate when being pushed through the blad. A wet piece of wood (like when its raining) being held by your hands could measure the same rate as a cut to the

Useless rear seats???? I’ll have you know those seats are the difference between us Dads making the case for a car and failing miserably. Why do you think I have a 911 instead of a Viper. Praise be to Lotus for having the 2+2.

It should be noted that it could also be triggered by damp (pressure treated) wood and doesn’t work in the rain.
