You can actually buy the Veloster TCR from Hyundai (i30 TCR is available in Europe) backed by Hyundai Motorsports division. I think they are priced a little over 100k. That is dirt cheap for a race car. 

That moment when your street-legal oem car is more ricey than a homologated race car.

The home plate umpire was calling a lot of strikes that were clearly high and out of the zone from the first inning on, so the Nats may have felt like they had to swing at some of those bad pitches.

The Veloster TCR also has a massive wing, while the street N does not.  So yeah the wing will be gone if/when they make the street legal one.

How great would it be if Mazda brought something to showrooms to take on the Veloster N and Golf GTI?

Proof that less fake vents is always better.

I question your ability to speak with credibility on this subject. 

This person has been all about crapping on Warren here-see this article as well. No idea what their end goal is, besides high-energy flaming with little follow-through.

Wait, so now we are punishing people for having the maturity and ability to recognize they were wrong and doing something to fix it?! Honestly, it makes me like Warren more that she had the guts to realize she didn’t align with the republican party anymore and moved to the left. We need more self-reflection in this…

I was going to ask why in the world Biden holds such a substantial lead over Warren among black voters in South Carolina, but this explains it. I don’t agree with any of it, but I appreciate the sharing of the sentiment.

Jerry Orbach is a national treasure. RIP. 

I hate SVU with a passion. Orbach and Jesse L Martin are the best. 

Law & Order, and LO: SVU have both done episodes dealing with this kind of thing.

Wait, is this a thing? I once had a 15-year-old boy in my summer school class who made me feel uneasy for some reason I couldn’t put my finger on, and he turned out to be a 22-year-old Ukrainian national who’d overstayed his visa and was paying some family to “adopt” him. He’s now in prison on a bunch of charges.

Yeah, there’s no way Tesla at its current scale will ever make, like, the Tesla Fit. Sign a deal with Honda, let them slap Fit bodies over a Tesla platform and upcharge.

Supposedly they have (at least regarding patents) but reading the rules make it very much not in favor of the licensee: https://www.lexology.com/library/detail.aspx?g=ca6c332f-2cc5-401b-b80d-36473d0754c7

Step one: Take Elon’s phone, delete twitter account, smash phone

Neutral: license the battery pack and platform to other manufacturers to use as a base for their electric vehicles. 

The other thing that mutes this is that CUVs now typically have room for hybrid, PHEV, and EV variants. That’s where we’re headed, especially as Europe’s 2020 emission laws have forced them to develop those variants to keep playing on that continent.
