The Cybertruck is still several years away. Tesla says two years, but it’ll probably be more like 3-4 years before it comes out. I don’t think the production version will look much like this. It’s too big, it’s too impractical, changes need to be made. I think the main purpose was to get the media stirred up with a

This thing is unreal. I’m seriously waiting for Elon Musk to send out a tweet sometime soon saying “Just kidding! The Bertone fever-dream is a joke!At which point he’ll reveal what it actually looks like. Something like this:

Toyota kinda messed up on this one. They needed to spend $3 billion and create a halo car from the ground up. They have the money to. GM did it with the C8. People are still going nuts about that one and will for a while. 

This wouldn’t be surprising in the US, but Canada?? The world really is going to shit.

I thought maybe the Bears could possibly turn things around after last year, but I was wrong.

Infiniti is basically the Cadillac of Japan.

Can someone talk about the actual repairs done to these resold cars to meet NOx emissions requirements? I assume that’s what was done so that the cars could be resold. Is there a urea injection system now installed? How much urea does the car hold, how often does the tank have to be refilled?

Jason, thank you for the journalistic sacrifice you have made to report on this important story. It does not go unappreciated. Not only did I learn something, but I was laughing the whole time I was reading your... quite descriptive... article.

Thanks for the background. I didn’t know RE was involved with Force India last year. 

I gotta say that as soon as I saw William Storey, I knew this would happen. He just looks like one of those weird, detached CEO’s that’s more bravado and ‘fake-it-til-you-make-it’ than anything else. And hey, Rich Energy turned out to be a vaporware company with no actual money. Lesson learned Haas.

It’ll be great to take a closer look at that rear end at the Corvette museum in Kentucky, where this C8 will eventually be parked... and not put into production. IT’S ALL A TEASE!

I was gonna say, with a car like this, there should be a fire truck following it. But Glickenhaus did one better with the on-board fire suppression system. Saved the legend. 

I’m 36. 1993 was right when I was becoming aware of cars and my enthusiasm for them. It was a sweet car back then. It was popular. That was the peak of Japanese sports car design. It was the right car to have in F&F 8 years later. It deserves the legendary and classic status it has today.

I don’t know about this...

Whatever man, no need to beat yourself up. You’re an internet auto journalist with a visual presence. You wanted to try something new, it didn’t quite work out, so you change it and move on. I don’t think the long apology is needed.

What’s that? The Gig Economy isn’t the revolutionary cure for society’s woes the tech-bros promised it would be? Mind blown.

CTS —-> CT5. The 5 kinda looks like an S.

Now I just want a tshirt that says “S3XY” on it.

They must’ve been on their way to the Corvette museum in Bowling Green, Kentucky, to put the mid-engine C8 on display, along with the other mid-engine Corvettes that were never put into production. How unfortunate.

I mainly watch F1, but I have a big appreciation for IndyCar. The fact that the cars are mostly the same is the main difference from F1, and it makes for more exciting racing because the drivers are all more tightly packed on the course than they are in F1. Some F1 races, the leaders start lapping the back-markers
