I'm actually quite sure Bar Refaeli is capable of naming many other such athletes, and is well aware of the athlete sections on SI Swim; as one of the most famous SI Swin models of the past decade, she was, after all, there for many of them.

That hat, second from the left. Where the fuck can I get one of those!?

Of course.

Nothing on the Kia Optima?

Story of my life...

"Ahem" *cough* "Ahem"

To be fair, Beetles have always been ungainly little things. In a sense, that's also what's made them so interesting from a visual standpoint. While I agree that the last generation was a terrible and ugly caricature - this one feels like it grew up a little bit. And frankly, it's a more pleasant sight than, say, a…

I think the same could be said about most cars. I'm going to go against the grain here, though, and say that I actually kind of like this new Beetle. It's a good-looking car, but Volkswagen just needs to take a little more time to tune it and perfect it a bit. If they sharpened it up a little bit, I think it would be…

It's astounding how much better the back looks without Reichmann's unfortunate picnic-basket handle spoiler.

Absolutely agreed. That's why I'm curious - was the requirement to integrate the SDB-II an original requirement, or was it something added in later

You're definitely not an engineer, and nor do you have any experience with large projects.

Working with NASA, and having seen the JWST program develop over the past ten years, I understand the extraordinarily long and difficult I&T phases of complex systems; at least from a high-level perspective.

...No.

Highly disputed, depending on the metric of choice used. The Hughes H-4, otherwise known as the "Spruce Goose," still has the largest wingspan. In terms of volumetric capacity (which is typically used as the key metric in measuring ships, not aircraft), however, the An-224 wins.

I nominate Brt.

I want that. No, I need that.

That's... kind of fucking brilliant, actually. Talk about a hell of a way to improve efficiency, lower vehicle operation costs, support the construction of much-needed new infrastructure, and also potentially serve as an addition source of revenue for the USPS.

Be not so cynical. As a general rule, you will never get to take advantage of a NISMO Z's top speed on a public road. You, can, however, use its upgraded handling potential on the right road. So, if you can't use the speed, but you have the engine, why not at least be able to hear it better while carving your favorite…

"That sounds great, though strangely less great than 320 HP to all the wheels, but why would I even bring that up? "

I'm not sure that I agree with that. In fact, in some ways, I'd use the argument of pragmatism to draw almost the opposite conclusion.
