The red one? Looks like a 3rd generation Acura Integra.

More importantly, is that a shirt with tacos printed all over it? Cause now I want a shirt with tacos printed all over it.

What car is made MORE practical with a rollcage? ... Miata really is the answer to everything!

I didn’t think I’d want anything other than a Land Rover Defender when I set up my place in West Africa.

IIRC, Brazil uses Ethanol, not Methanol. They grow an abundance of sugar cane, which is more cheaply processed into Ethanol than the corn that we use in the US.

Brazil uses sugar canes, and to grow anything in an industrial scale requires a lot of fertilisers. Instead of allocating the fertilisers for transportation, using them to feed the planet would be far better if we can use “free energy” (e.g. sunlight, wind, etc.)+atmospheric CO2 for fuel.

Same for German, hence the name. It’s “e-petrol”, if you like.

“Benzin” is the german word for what English speakers call “gasoline”. The “Benz” part found in both “Benzin” and “benzene” comes from that bloke who started the Benz car company, as he used a fuel that contained those hexagonal carbohydrates, where ohter builders used other distillates.

No.

I thought the Touareg/Cayenne/Q7-like was on a distinct platform, like the Phaeton.

That would be great! Imagine getting on the bus and being issued a helmet, and all the seats have 5 point harnesses.

Why does that suddenly make me want to see a /DRIVE episode on this vehicle?

Hahaha. It’s so the kids don’t run out in front of it!

Tell me more about that knee-capper option!

Actually I think that sounds reasonable, a Rally Fighter is about $100k.

Said this before, and I’ll say it again...
