And to think, back when the tuner scene was sucking up twin turbo Supra's, my friends and I made fun of everyone driving a tuner car painted this color. If my memory serves correct, I believe it was known as chameleon (generically)?

If its anything like the Ford Mystic or the BASF extreme it is a multistage paint where the 1st coat is black and the rest is all the colors.
In my experience, left lane bandits are just oblivious to other traffic while tailgaters are just obnoxious. Tailgating is annoying at the very least, and unsafe at worst. If I'm on a secondary road where there's no safe place to pass, tailgaters piss me off like nothing else. It's not like I drive slow, either.…
people there tend to work instead of calling and attending perpetual sensitivity seminars.
Regarding the steering/handling, you gotta drive a vintage Cadillac for a truly harrowing experience on modern roads. Lightning fast steering that responds to the slightest input that makes the car surprisingly nimble in a parking lot or slow traffic, but with no actual handling to speak of. I hear about disconnected…
It's a smart buy until you realize that, for all its value when new, it's going to depreciate like a rock. Whether or not it deserves to depreciate doesn't really matter, it's gonna be another Phaeton in that respect. They'll be $20k in just a few years.
This is nit-picking in the worst form. You know exactly what I meant.
You Europeans have short memories....oh wait that is us. Who is this Motley Crue again?
maybe they copied the parts of the ford that were "made in China"
The Dodge Challenger. It looks like it drove through a time warp from 1970. It is the same big 2 door coupe your Uncle Frank drove when you were 9. I love mine.
In case you live outside of the United States and don't know a damn thing about the muscle car market:if you're in the market for a Challenger, you don't give a damn about fuel efficiency, volumetric efficiency, etc. All you car about is that it has a big V8 that sounds good and is faster than 70% of the shitboxes on…
The Challenger in unapologetically American. They just don't give a damn about hp/liter or weight.
Thank you Chevy for this awesome sex machine.
I hope GM realizes that engineers (maybe not the same two) found out the problem and informed their superiors about it (doing their job)! Management specifically ignored the requests to make the changes.
I fail to see how the engineers are liable. I'm far from a legal expert, but I hope the engineers can fight this in…
This is bullshit. Decisions like this are made by managers, not engineers. I have never met an engineer that wouldn't have preferred to fix the problem the right way, it's the bean-counters that place a dollar value on human life.
Elon Musk emigrated here, became a naturalized citizen, and became wildly successful. Sounds like the American ideal to me.
Stupidity is more common than maliciousness. It's more likely that the pilot lost control or that there was a malfunction, and the article didn't explain how it is that this photographer has the technical expertise to determine that he was hacked and how he was hacked.
If I was taking my new camera drone out for a spin and it embedded itself into someone's head, I'd probably blame hackers too.
My favorite part was when some loudmouthed congressional boob acted aghast that Barra did not know about the ignition switch situation back in 200x when she was in charge of assembly line machinery.
I never go more than 4 mph over the speed limit. Never had any problems with law enforcement over that. I slow down to a GPS-verified 0 over the speed limit when the dickheads tailgate me. When they pass, I whip out the cellphone, lean over, and stare at their license plate.
