he’s never expressed much concern over that, because it’s gotten the brand noticed.

Like someone said above, this may be advice specifically for the track?? The explanation was that if you crank your seat all the way up, you tend to look more toward your front bumper. If your seat is further down, you tend to look further ahead. You get more reaction time from looking further ahead, and you never…

Cute tech demo, but I don’t see how this is remotely practical given alignment requirements and charging efficiency of inductive chargers. Maybe they needed to use so many drivers because the drivers had to stay within a +/2 cm to keep the charger active?

Just *do not* go for the low profile wormskin. I got upsold on the 35cm-thick skin versus the standard 50-series. It does *not* even remotely change the handling on sand, and I mean, who ever takes these onto asphalt these days???

I’d also guess it has something to do with the lingering feelings of unreliability and the fact that Chrysler’s only vaguely new car in the last ~18 years is a minivan.

Does this count??? (at least it’s a $0 option)

I’ve noticed on some of the bigger *8 Audi’s that they have 2x spots in the front fascia that look like the lidar. I’ve always wondered if they actually have 2x of the lidar sensors, or they are just designed that way to make it look symmetrical:

Yeah this is a really suspicious statement. At least he’s not advertising a discount based on skin tone, I suppose.

1. Visibility is key. Your steering where you look, so you must put your eyes in the best possible place to see the track. Put your fist on your head and raise your seat until it touches the ceiling.

This is the only answer. $5K is nice bike money, not off-road-vehicle money unless you’re buying a non-running / salvage title and putting more $1000's into getting it reliable to take on a trail. Now if you want good MPG on top of that, just LOL.

The real news here is Chrysler at 67th vs. Tesla at 62nd. What the hell, Chrysler, you don’t have Elon Musk tweeting for you.

Many automakers use the Tier 1's default ‘off-the-shelf’ radar front fascia. For example, the hemispherical dome radar used by Porsche for so many years:

Thanks for the replies.

Can you clean out all the fluids from the Chevy, tie down the body in the cabin securely, and then do an ocean burial?  Just roll it off a barge in international waters somewhere?

This V8 is the Mercedes Benz AMG 4.0L Biturbo V8, right? Like the one MB has been using for the past ~8 or so years?

It costs time and money to tweak/qualify an automotive radar to work behind a fascia. Given the (low) volume of this vehicle, there is even some chance that the radar vendor (e.g. Bosch, Continental, Denso, etc) just wont spend the time to customize the unit for the Aston Martin fascia.

What kind of car show involves worn out ~20 year old vehicles that were perfectly fine and utilitarian back in the day, but not for enthusiasts? The only ‘car show’ I can think of that this vehicle qualifies for is The Walmart Parking Lot.

+1 for Fawlty Towers!

No argument, there, but  there’s no way the UK could stand up to China these days, even if they hadn’t given it back.
