Is this like when one of the crazy cat lady’s cats dies and the other cats eat it, turning the rest of the cats into crazed cannibals which the crazy cat lady is then forced to release to the shelter (read: send to the junkyard)?

It will be very fun to watch Chinese startups break into the automotive innovation space. China’s state-connected super wealthy are always looking for the next Foxconn or Huawei or Xiaomi to get in on the ground floor of, and advanced vehicles seem to be the hot new trend to pump money into since Faraday generated a…

I get around 25MPG driving my ND like an idiot and up to 38MPG highway with the top up and watching my right foot like a hawk. 30MPG combined in the real world is readily achievable.

“Industry-wide, banks classified $1.1 billion worth of auto loans as uncollectible in the fourth quarter.”

The time of day, exposure choices, and likely some raw processing are almost certainly playing into how we perceive these photos. Frankly, that’s also just being a good photographer, but yes, your own eyes or an untouched video taken on a sunny day probably wouldn’t make this place look nearly so... dreadful.

Those are normal dead cows. These are dead French cows of the finest quality, having eaten only from vats full of the finest black caviar mixed with the finest French champagne. These cows had names - nay - these cows had titles. Viscount Vache Of Bourdeaux III. These cows were classy.

Nothing says luxury like “my key fob for my car covered in dead cows is also covered in dead cow, because LUXURY.”

I see a re-gift in this birthday present’s future.

My attempt at a purely Canadian immersive comment experience has been utterly thwarted.

So this is the Spider version of the one Jeremy Clarkson drove on TG, right? I like this a lot better than the hard top. And that blue color is absolutely perfect - I can already see one cruising down a cobbled road on the Italian coast on a sunny day.
