Cadillac Fleetwood Brougham, the apple in the eye of every retired guy in the ‘80s to show you “made it”.

Isn’t the IRS number an allowed expense rate meant to cover gas, insurance, depreciation? You claim 100,000 miles for business-use  so can claim $58,000 in expenses, no receipts required.

V6?

So,....they are reliable then?

But actually when this project started there was a scandal, a politician had to resign and the government lost a non-confidence vote. It was then restarted under a more transparent Construction deal.

But there is only 1,000 people there and unlikely they all commute, maybe 250 commuter vehicles to “The City” per day?

So how do 1000 people drive 6000 cars per day? It will take awhile to grow the population to get to the business case 6,000 per day, meanwhile the promised 18 year payback just stretches out

Using the old 9-6-4-3-2-1 points system (25 points per race)

Just how many commuters live in the “villages” of Strendur and Saltnes? Must have been built for other reasons or I smell pork barrel.

Toyota Highlander had same issue, had an inch of water inside but clearing out those front drains by the wipers did the trick.

GT3 cars are plenty fast, can lap Laguna Seca in 1:21, street Mclarens are in 1:29 range.  It’s the tires more than HP.  Good balance of performance and cost.

“BU C “ No !

Looks like the kind of beater they used to buy on Top Gear for 1000 quid and go on some cross country jaunt with them.

That is what Tesla battery packs are, just wired in series and parallel to get the voltage and amp-hours desired.

Probably can get one for $300 a month, that’s only 20 hours work. Forget buying, just need to make monthly payments.

“Ecru” now there’s a word I haven’t seen in awhile and not interested to google it now.  

I’d say seeing the Countach, was way way beyond what regular cars presented at that time. And the Porsche 917-30 Can-Am car.

Nice ad, looks like Top Gear basically copied the whole thing for every car review they did.
