One day, all of this will be yours.

What is wrong with the old “Buy this $800 thing for $X upfront and then $Y monthly installments”? Like we have done for other expensive stuff since money was invented?

Extremely pretty on photo.

For some weird reason they settled upon 45 km/h as the max speed of an “EU moped”.

The raison d’etre of Lamborghini is to make histrionic halo stuff that hangs on bedroom walls of ten-year olds. Who then run and buy one as their first act if coming into wealth.

XD

Isn’t it time to start specifying EV power in kilowatts?

2010 or so was driving around in my Camaro with the targa roof down, and came up on an ancient 18-wheeler at an incline.

Welcome to the shitty future, where rent seekers nickle-and-dime you to death.

Just want to point out that at +250 km/h, drag contributes to deceleration quite substantially.

Personally, I am annoyed at the presence of tachometers in cars that have no business pretending to need them.

As I mentioned in the post to Southwest Nomad above, I have owned three cars with superchargers. All of them were equipped with a function that bypasses the boost when running on idle and very low load. When you stepped on the throttle, some valve instantly shut and full boost applied. This supposedly improved mileage…

Bah, okay. :[

A valkyrie.

Sheet - did I post that in 2017?

I like it.

What kind of mileage do you get if you just drive around as if it was any other car?

Cool ‘n all, but I am still waiting to see someone put a single-cylinder thumper into a fun car.

Just last week I spoke with a man who - tasked to modify a factory in Germany - had to deal with WW2 duds under the floor. Apparently, if a bomb did not detonate the germans just poured cement on it and kept working. Der Führer needed tanks!

Further: no need for elaborate drive shaft arrangements with differentials and whatnot.
