Car design in the last couple of years is a complete mess. Man this car looks like one of those uncivilized Gemballa or Mansory concepts. So I’m going to ignore your obvious hot take and say this; this car represents a great business opportunity.

“Jalopnik is thrilled about performance until it isn’t?”

Driving 300+ miles on a single charge is like insurance; you never feel like you need insurance, until you REALLY need it.

So are we just going to ignore X8 Monstrosity over there in the link?

I should point out that Tesla famously doesn’t spend any money on advertising, but they receive millions of dollars worth in coverage for publicity stunts that get quite a lot of coverage in the media.

How did the FIM confirm that he did accidentally consumed the steroids?

People REALLY hate using parking brakes. They’re meant to avoid exactly these kinds of situations.

We probably entered a malaise era for car design without even realizing it. Every car that is released comes out looking much worse than the previous generations.

White van is the passenger version of the third generation VW Caddy.

I booked 16' but they gave me a 26' V8 gas instead. Driving into busy gas stations was very tricky and the fuel bill at the end of the 6 hour trip was insane.

Nobody’s going to talk about the Nurburgring using a Ram as the emergency vehicle at the ring?

I personally would prefer my car to be lifted up then dragged on to the bed. If your car can’t move but you drag it anyway, you risk increasing the damage to the car.

Lap times don’t matter if the car isn’t stock.

The church of Elon Musk was majorly triggered by this piece. Your racing suit might not survive the heat from all those boring company flamethrowers.

Knowing Elon, Tesla Engineers probably weren’t told about it either.

Take them to small claims court for the cost of replacing the entire lawn.

The real reason American manufacturers use superchargers is because they can. EU bureaucrats cracked down hard on engine displacement and CO2 emissions while the current (and previous) EPA administration has dodgy views on climate change. 

Nurburgring lap times are mostly bogus anyways because most of those cars are not showroom standard and are instead just a marketing exercise.

3.8L was also used in the MP4-12 / MP4-12 GT3/ 650S/ 675LT/ P1/ P1 GTR/ P1 LM. The 4.0L is a modified version of the 3.8L. They need to borrow an engine block from somewhere else at least, modify it until it’s unrecognizable (like the F1 and the SLR). At least then it would look like they made an effort to make their…
