My god! Dream job!

Pretty amazing. But minor nitpick- the pyrotechnics in the background appear to be too late. They go off in sequence, but after the car has cleared the takeoff ramp.

That speedometer- the lathe-turned background, with the idiot lights nestled within the raised turnings... that’s gorgeous.

No. Early 70's AMC Matador.

US-China relations are low, China is becoming a global superpower (economically and militarily), which means they can ignore US demands. China also has a lot to lose, and must tread carefully lest NK’s economy collapse if too many sanctions are enacted too quickly (re-read the part about the refugee crisis that would…

Rider approaching from the right was CLOSE ENOUGH TO HIT THE KILL SWITCH!

I seriously hope you’re being sarcastic. There’s a whole lotta shit going on with that. Including the hidden button on the end.

Pods aside the instrument binnacle.

I kinda remember the Berenstain/stein thing, and wondering why the name changed (it didn’t). But I always knew that Mandela was not dead when others were so sure he was.
The Benneton VW. Man, I swear I saw billboards for it. It was a thing, man. I’m sure you’re right. That, and a while spent on Google looking for it.…

All these years I thought it was a marketing tie-in with clothing designer Benneton. From their ‘United Colors of Benneton’ campaign. Am I misremembering it? Was there a different Benneton-branded Volkswagen?

The Aptera. Geez, I wanted one so bad. I wanted them to succeed so bad.
