Stan, don’t listen to Steve. Do not buy a used Infiniti Q50 Red Sport and slap on a stage whatever kit…. A practical car is one that works. That Infiniti platform is ancient at this point, and the interior (the part you need to interact with every day) is very dated. The steering is “meh” and the mpgs will make you…

Oh yea these things are gonna kill a lot of people. I saw one at the Peterson a few weeks ago and aside from the glare coming off the thing, I’m 5'8 which is pretty average height and if it hits you head on its going to obliterate your skull and send you under the car. The first thing that is going to contact your…

On the bright side (pun intended), it might blind all the idiots who keep their high beams on all the time.

Fun Fact: Even as he’s become a right-wing God, his new found alt-right base still has zero interest in EVs.

For real, though. There’s a reason that semi-trucks have quilted doors: to break up light so it doesn’t completely blind you. These things are going to cause accidents from reflections alone.

It’ll sell.

The pedestrian’s final Boss...Also it looks like I can get a paper(?)cut on those angles. And yippie, now I can get blinded by both the sun and the glare this thing will produce.

What is wrong with you that you would want this vehicle? 

I don’t really want to see it either, so that works out.

Not wanting to spend the money is a VERY different story than “I can’t afford” to spend the money. I could easily buy a $100K Porsche tomorrow - but I don’t want one enough, so I don’t. I don’t even have FU money, just peak-career IT consultant living in a cheap place money. But single no kids too.

Well I kinda rushed into that comment. It’s more like I don’t want to afford a $40k car when they were $30k less than 5 years ago.

You cannot afford a $40k vehicle? Given all that you state, why the hell not?

Not feeling your numbers. I bought my first new BMW for $40K when I was 42 a dozen years ago. I had a mortgage (admittedly small by modern standards), student loans, and some low interest credit card debt. I also made just under six figures, had company health insurance (that my share of is EXPENSIVE), maxed out my…

Here’s hoping your line ends when that 9,000-lb deathtrap rolls and burns.

I am 39 years old

I hate it cause it’s ugly

Out here in coastal SoCal, where the parents are wealthy AND idiotic, there are now “gangs” of dumbass over privileged kids tearing around on $5K E-bikes while completely ignoring traffic laws. I give it 2 years tops before the Gov starts (correctly) treating them like motor vehicles with…

People like the gti because it has good, competent performance without being offensive or problematic. You would have to make it stiffer to make it handle better, noisier to make it more exciting, hurt the practicality to make it look cooler, less efficient to make it faster, etc. Given that it's a car that normal…

Here’s what I don’t get: I don’t like any of the royals. I don’t see why anyone needs them. I’m pretty sure Andrew is an awful old criminal. But like, I don’t defame them in news articles. I don’t write letters to The Times demanding Di be burned in effigy. I don’t call Anne up and tell her I’m glad her mom died. I…

Just as long as we can still get some more “James May, Our Man In...” shows, I’ll be satisfied.
