30 miles of range is still gonna need significantly more battery volume for a mail truck than for a Model 3 or something. They’re not aerodynamic, they’re very heavy, and a lot of their route is accelerating from a stop. I will admit that they also spend a lot of time braking, so regen would help a lot, and their…

Yes, but it’s still just fine in low light. And either way these aren’t delivering in complete darkness. 

since when is over 400hp underpowered?

Either around a track or in a straight line.

Either way, the general public is dumb and reads the first several sentences of an article and looks at a couple pictures. They see Genesis, they see Woods in an accident, they talk to their friends about it. It can only be bad PR.

Say what you want, but I’ve really never heard any criticism about him. The only times I hear of him is in jokes or golf talk. And why’d you even bring up the criticism? Seems really out of place in a story just talking about his accident.

I think that’s an automatic. Plus it’s in the UK. 6000 pounds plus shipping to the US would be like 10 grand. That’s not a good deal, especially for an auto.

Yes, even though they make it look a little sad in the header photo, the visors just make the front so much cooler for no good reason

Yeah, I don’t really know if I’d be able to adapt very quickly. I usually let the wheel slide back to center position in my hand, and with a squareish wheel that’d be super annoying.

Yeah, especially visual ones. The button layout looks pretty slick, so I’m sure that when the C8 transitions into classic status, the C8.1 will hold a slight premium.

Are you legitimately suggesting Corvette shoppers who found the interior lackluster go look at Ferraris? Honestly can’t tell if you’re trolling. These are two completely different price points, driving experiences, stats, and mindsets. 

Why do salespeople always complain about a shitty review after they do such a shitty job? It’s not even hard to figure out if there’s a certain color combo at the warehouse, just a quick search in whatever database. It’s completely their fault for not putting any work in and subsequently annoying the shit out of you

She was young, cute

You know, usually your write ups are sarcastic and hilarious, but this is honestly a good idea. How powerful is this thing planned to be? 200 horses should do. If it’s not powerful enough, just swap it with some junkyard LS for like 300 reliable horses. I’m also assuming this thing would cost like $25k since it’s a…

At that point I might just try and find some non-glass windshield. Once a week is just insane. Do plastic windshields exist?

Yeah I bet reliability and cost are the major downsides. I mean, a camshaft doesn’t really wear. It’s just a metal rod. Takes hundreds of thousands of miles for it to have real wear. And it’s not hard to produce. The valve springs are more susceptible to wear, but from what I’ve read they’re not really something that…

Yes, but this is a completely different type of thrill. The engine is rumbling the shit out of you, the old ass tech, the classy interior, all that. I definitely enjoy all that, but I’d still rather drive a miata 20 over on some back road, cautiously of course.

I’ve never driven one, but I specifically enjoy being thrown around into the bolsters. So corners. The back roads I drive on have like one car every 15 minutes, and I always slow down on blind corners, so there’s basically no chance to get into an accident, and even then it’d be just me taking a corner too hot and…

Except don’t catch you

I think the road car is already plenty for anyone but race car drivers to get in bigass trouble. And downforce isn’t really be dangerous (yea yea I know ground effects can be dangerous), it just pushes the limit of cornering further. Wouldn’t that actually make it safer to drive?
