Agreed, this should be a backup, not a justification for leaving home without a normal ID. Also, I’m having fun picturing the bouncer’s response when somebody pulls out their phone to get into a bar.

This is just a solution looking for a problem. I will just carry a plastic card around.

This GM guy would rather have a Mustang.

I was really really hopeful Toyota would buy Lotus before Geely bought them. Could have been amazing, but I think Toyota wanted their own brand “GR” instead of going the M&A way.

How many 2+2, Mid-engine, RWD manual Camry’s have you seen? Just because it shares an engine doesn’t make it the same. Are the Elise and Exige just Corolla’s, MR-S’s or Celica’s?

I like it a lot, but I worry that the value is going to plummet in the near future due to the miles and lack of a blower. No dice for me. Hats off to the prior owner(s) though for actually driving the bloody car instead sealing it up like an original copy of the Constitution.

Looks like it’s in great shape, but he’s about $10k too strong for an “S” with that many miles.

Speed cameras are 100% government over reach. They are a tax on the commuting middle class. Seriously, its a joke they are legal to exist at all.

The current fixed wing drones have a 150km range, not 15 miles. I don’t know if that’s one-way or round trip, but still pretty impressive.

I think that 15 miles was a typo. The range is 150km, or 93 miles (I don’t know if that’s round trip or one-way, though). And I found that in an article from 2017. I’d imagine they’ve probably improved on that.

The pattern of the citations is strange. Every now and then, there’s a 1-2 week span of regular citations. Then there’s a single citation 2 months later. Then 2 months later, another 1-2 weeks of regular citations.

As noted, the speed cameras are great revenue generators, and easy money to the city- assuming that honest people pay the fines. Problem is, there is almost zero enforcement of traffic violations of any kind, or crime in general really. Different people will cite different reasons for that. Driver behavior in this…

My wife and I watched this. What Zipline is doing on Rwanda is unbelievable. The drones there are like large RC planes.  A hospital will ask for a critical supply and within 30 minutes of asking a drone has dropped a parachute with the  supplies to the yard outside the hospital.  Day or night no matter the weather.   …

1st Gear: Anyone who does or wants to do business with the federal government should be well versed in the Federal Acquisition Regulations (FAR). The FAR requires domestic content, of a percentage of domestic content. It absolutely puzzles me that these people weren’t aware of this fun fact and was wishing for a…

The Challenger SRT Demon 170 is the first factory production car to run the quarter-mile under nine seconds with a National Hot Rod Association (NHRA)-certified 8.91-second ET at 151.17 mph.

crashed by a dealership employee before the owner takes delivery.

Yes, you’ve been misunderstanding. “10 second car” is just shorthand for “a car that will run it in the 10s”.

I feel like I should care about this much more than I do. Like I appreciate that it’s basically the equivalent of a GT3 RS for drag racing, but you can already see the writing on the wall. We’re going to see innumerable articles about how dealers are marking them up, one is going to sell at BJ for like $2.5M for some…

I’m pretty sure that no strip in the US is letting an 8 second car enter an event without a cage and fire extinguishers.

If cocaine was a car. Absolutely awesome fun, but maybe not actually that great after all.
