A Stinger GT?

Agree.

They had a good back and forth about how MBAs should be kept away from anything important.

Musk and von Koenigsegg are exceptions in that they are essentially first-generation CEOs of their respective companies.

that’s the thing I think a lot of people seem to forget, while he’s a rich guy from a rich family he’s also a self taught programmer and made a lot of his money creating paypal. he’s actually got a lot of knowledge behind the personality.

Well, he’s not... Gwynne Shotwell is designing the rockets, Musk makes sure she has all the money she needs to do it.

Allow me an analogy: You walk into a Quiznos and see a guy leave half of a perfectly good Italian sandwich just... sitting there. There’s nothing wrong with it. The sandwich was clearly cut in half, and aside from being a little rough from the unwrapping process, that’s half of a good sandwich. It even still has the…

The “no dicers” are the people thinking you need to return this to factory condition in order to be enjoyable. You’re probably the same people that have matching towels in your bathrooms and don’t use the dishwasher because it doesn’t get the glasses “clean enough”.

The US market was underpowered compared to its European counterparts, without a doubt. I’m just not sure I’d like to pay the $5,000 premium for a supercharger that may not be what I want in an E36 M3.
