I thought that was odd as well. My partner is a FA for United and she tells me they will serve someone 2 at once but not 3. In a 1 hour flight, They'd generally only have time for one service.

But wait! You can buy this extremely expensive used car for less than this extremely cheap new car!

Seriously. who cares?

Thank you very much for doing that. That car sounds like a pile.

My mother in laws new BMW has it. It's jarring to sit at a light and take your foot off the brake and have the engine start. It turn it off when I drive. She leaves it on when she drives and she gets the same economy as my wife's e46 w/o it. I'm sure it does reduce economy to som extent, but I feel like it's a drop in

They’ll use V8s. the issue isn’t making more power. It’s making something with that much power be fast around a track while being as refined as anything else on the road.

I feel like it can largely be attributed to the same cause that many problems in American can be. The system was designed 50+ years ago to meet a different set of requirements, then standardized nationwide. My change to the standard needs to happen on a national level.

From WW1

Then is it really the best car? Any race you run, from top fuel to Dakar, you have to finish.

Like DTM

One question: How can a team have the ‘best’ car and not win? Endurance racing is a brutal test of technology, planning, team work and luck. Yes, Toyota is a great team with incredible racing history. However, it’s clear that Porsche is the better team with a much better track record (see what I did there?). Sure

I'd LOVE to drive a v12 Mercedes. Total dream car. However, with my luck, the magic suspension, the coils and the transmission would go out within 10k miles of each other. I'd rather just have a warranty. But maybe that's why the depreciation is so bad after the warranty is up...

Came here to say this, Tom

Last 2 decades, really. Google Honda v6 transmission issues. The transmissions behind the v6 from the late 90s early 2000s would fail consistently before 100k miles. The was a class action lawsuit because of it

I have a long history with Volvo. I was taken home from the hospital in one (240 turbo), rode in one growing up (960 wagon) and drove one as a first car (240) and this ad make me want to buy one. I drive bmws now (e30 and e38) but sometimes I really really miss my 240s.

It really dampened their spirits.

I think they should. Although, I'll agree that the pollution output front sports cars is a drop in a very large and growing bucket, for me it's a matter of principle. Lower carbon emissions for new cars across the board. Porsche does a fantastic job of this already, so I'm excited to see where they go next.

I agree. However I don't think sports cars should be exempted from the same rules all the other cars have to follow.

He's not only talking about power. He's also talking about environmental output.

So funky and so delicious. Who wants to buy a lightly used kidney?
