Just off the top of my head, I would think it's a safety issue similar to the ground effect skirts on the late 70s F1 cars. They were great when they were working, but if the system passively deactivates at the wrong time you could lose all your downforce mid-corner and end up in the wall. Imagine if Toyota's…
I don't even understand why non mechanically assisted movable aero is banned. It's ridiculous and inhibits technological progress. It's still a field we haven't even come close to fully exploring and yet it's banned in pretty much all forms of racing as if it was like an unlimited bottle of nitrous.
This is correct. Bricklin SV-1's had body panels that were made with pigment-impregnated acrylic. Just like acrylic bathtubs. Malcolm Bricklin had previously been involved in the plumbing supply business and this carried over. You can scratch the surface and it's the same exact color underneath. A fantastic idea, but…
Not even close, this is nowhere near as stupid as the E series "tweet to pass" bullshit.
It's the DeLorean. Always has been, always will be.
France wins guy... sorry, it's rare, but we win... and by far :)
So a ton of people are freaking out thinking this is GM's fault. When in all reality the people filing the lawsuit are just idiots. Lost resale value? If that's the case everybody buying an S-Class, A8, or 7-Series should sue their respective manufacturers as the values on those tank only a handful of years after they…

I'm afraid I did the same thing.... Recount!

I don't mean to blow up your feed with videos, but look at this!!! Now I want this...
if you are asking a McDonalds worker to make a special, better looking hamburger for you, just for you, you are on a much higher horse.
And to prevent needing to waste time & money in court battles over IP rights. 2 things that Tesla, while not hurting for it at the moment, doesn't have Apple-money sitting around to do.
Not necessarily. Company X could try, but it would just end up in with Tesla fighting back in court & claiming that they were already manufacturing Product Y using that technology and would therefore pre-date Company X's patent claim by proof of concept.
The Club, making sure that you find your Lancia where you parked it (rather than 25 feet away where it broke down after being stolen).
I think you need to go back to car door school. The Avantime has a complicated door mechanism to allow it to open in confined spaces. The R8 probably has more of an issue there.
