Going ham on tail lights is what keeps me going, period.

It may or may not be awful, but it’s clearly better than Tesla.

We weren't allowed to get in but here's a shot I took of the interior. 

No, but I get what they are saying. It is comforting that somewhere out there in the world, there is a place that people can drive as fast as they want, without fear of law infraction or social retribution. Losing that makes the world a duller, less free place, whether it directly affects us in the USA or not. And

Most rural places, that’s exactly what happens between certain hours they just go to flashing yellow for the dominant direction, flashing red for non-dominant. If they're not doing it for an intersection, it's probably been deemed to have too much traffic.

I wish we could make it legal to run a red light if conditions are safe to do so.  Maybe red lights turn to stop signs between 9pm and 6am. I hate getting stuck at a red light while there are no cars coming the other direction, only to get a green light exactly as the next wave of traffic comes through.

My beef with the speed limit thing is that it will less and less tied to emissions as EVs and hybrids take over the motoring pool. The few sections of unrestricted autobahn do not contribute a meaningful amount of pollution to Germany’s carbon impact - they’re just easy to pick on by environmentalists. The real way to

Neutral: Redlights

It seems to happen mostly with 2013+ Mustangs (I recall one 2007 GT500 and one New Edge, but mostly S550s and later S197s). Once the really powerful ones started becoming cheap and plentiful, the dude-bro crowd started getting their grubby hands on them and discovered that spinning the tires was trivially easy. High

“Simple inferiority complex raising its head.”

It’s interesting. Mustangs, Challengers, Chargers, Infinitis are what you could call cheap speed, or a democratization of power. You don’t have to spend supercar money to get what was supercar performance not many years ago.

I said the only merit is packaging.

Well sure, and an AMG 4.0 V8 is a tune, downpipe, and intake system away from 800 hp. We aren’t talking about aftermarket here though, it’s about what they’re like from the factory. While the LS3 and LT1 are both good performers that do their job well, no one buys the vehicles they came in just for the engine as it is

Will say it again— The Flashing Red Light here is the (modest) year over year decline in EV sales as a market; despite all the proclamations of “Exponential Growth” the reality is that the market (as a whole) is pretty stalled. The Early Adopters have all bought a car. Or two. Or three. Or seven...

Sony partnered with Magna Steyr and Bosch to make this car possible

Why mess with success? It’s a comfortable car that can be had with a variety of HP flavors. It doesn’t always have to be about “riding on rails” handling. We’re undoubtedly heading towards an electric self driving future, so enjoy these types of cars while you can. 

You’re argument is akin to public schools teaching high schoolers “just don’t have sex”. Funny enough, they have sex regardless of what their overweight PE teacher in health class tells them.
