Neutral: Who’s Holding Out For a Model Y?

1st Gear: Since employers spend so damn much on ever-escalating health insurance costs for their workers, I don’t understand why many businesses oppose Medicare for all or some other form of *gasp* government-run/sponsored healthcare. If I ran a company with thousands of employers, I would be all for Medicare for all…

There’s also the issue of price and performance. The last TT I reviewed was $50,650, and it was nice and very fun to drive, but a lot to ask for a four-cylinder car with Volkswagen Golf underpinnings.

While the painting is no doubt a tedious job, it’s nothing compared to the carbon layup / assembly. I’m not sure how Mercedes lays up their wings, that’s going to be a very closely guarded secret, but I know enough to make a good guess.

I wonder if there’ll be anyone here to see it go past.

All tweets are bad, and everyone who tweets should be held in contempt.

Respect lost. I hate this sort of tax dodging.

It’s the other way round. The NSX looks like the Mid4.

The crying child dolls appeared on the car show scene 25-30 years ago. The story behind them, as I understand it to be, is that the kids are crying because their inheritance has been spent on the show car. Therefore the kids are crying.

Sound in air is carried by compression, but the compression is carried by successive collisions. That’s because there’s a vacuum in between the molecules in the air, so there are empty spaces between them. This in comparison to water that is essentially incompressible (for all cases where people can survive.)

Not to mention that he’s not a fucking Democrat.

Cars keep getting more expensive, the amount of money/loan payments are going to keep getting more expensive. The problem is wage growth not matching or exceeding consumer goods.

So the Z4/Supra only get the B58, but the X4 and the X3 get the S58 with like an extra hundred horsepower.  Because SUV’s need more power than sports cars I guess.

It’s amazing that every word of what you wrote here is nonsense, but this is particularly ignorant:

Pure capitalism DOES NOT work for democracy. When there’s no supervision of the market (buyers and sellers) the system runs amok. That’s where government regulation (socialism?) is necessary. In a pure capitalistic and democratic society the rich get richer and richer and richer. Eventually those rich few become your…

Where do you see 50%? With exception of i3, all have less than 40% and that is in 20 degrees, not 45 or 32, 20.

Good news.  Once the planet warms up enough, cold weather range won’t be an issue.

It used to run on the blood of Christ, but that didn’t perform well in North American focus groups. 

The Haldex is pretty good. The newer generation systems have better torque transfer. The system is now pre-loaded for faster transfer and also supports predictive torque transfer, so it will begin transferring torque to the rear when the wheel is turned.

Not a truck guy.  Even I think your configurator pic looks badass.
