Most are too lazy to even read 10 seconds on the car and realize it still has an engine.

I don’t disagree, having lived out there. However, here in Maine, I think I’ve seen it maybe once in the last 5 years. Not saying I couldn’t find it if I had an appropriate use, but it’s pretty rare. I’d have to live with only 800 HP most of the time which, as you know, can make merging dangerous.

Well, I have had it happen to me in California (the blue part), so take that as you will.

Reviews of the time were quite complimentary of the 6000. 

What I saw today from Formula 1 said he was the longest living tetraplegic.

I’m guessing it's designed to split like that. Looks pretty clean.

I copied it as soon as I read it so that I may learn its pronunciation and yell it angrily while driving.

I think they’re ghastly, sound awful, and (given the stipulation that I couldn’t sell the car in question) there are dozens and dozens of cars I’d take for free before a Veyron... Many under $150k.

While all of the endemic and organizational problems are all true, as someone who does safety-critical work for a living (nuclear plants), I don’t ever allow myself to make those excuses. My signature is precious and only gets applied when something meets my standard. No outside forces are allowed to influence what it…

Pepperidge Farm remembers BMW doing this in ‘05 timeframe. I remember some stat about their fuel tank keeping coffee hot for 6 months. I also saw the V12 race car at the Detroit Auto Show.

I didn’t say they were slow though. I said the engine power was well under the capabilities of the chassis. The aero, chassis, and tires allow them to lay down impressive laptimes. With that said, I really don’t think 9-15 seconds/lap faster than a stock GT2 is all that impressive considering you could probably halve…

1 gram per km? Considering a kg of H2 contains about the same energy as a gallon of gasoline, that’s basically saying 1000 km/gallon, or 620 MPG. Color me EXTREMELY skeptical. 

Kinda hard for me to get very excited about any road racing series these days. They’ve so neutered the engines that it seems almost all series have the chassis:power ratio of a stock Miata. Only top level LMP and Formula 1 cars seem to still have a gross excess of power (or at least enough to match the chassis). 

It takes a very substantial battery recycling program to argue against PHEVs as the pre-eminent environmental solution:

Uhhh... What? France uses all Westinghouse-based PWRs. They produce considerably less waste than HWRs. France also reprocesses and all of their long term waste to-date fits under the floor of a room similar in size to a basketball court.

The goal is to avoid constantly charging the chemistry to 100% and having it hold there in your garage, waiting for you to drive. If you’re actually going to use it (i.e., you know you’re driving 550 miles the next day), it’s not a big deal to take it to 100 and then use it. In lithium ions, both charge extremes and…

Just follow the Washington Football Team’s lead and call it the “Jeep Premium Segment (Optionally) 3-Row Midsize SUV”

Of all Gens, why a third? That's kind of the unloved one.

Completing some beautiful drifts; getting a bit enthusiastic with a willing engine and no rev limiter and then returning to normal speeds to hear a rather rhythmic metallic sound from the front half of the car.

Two of them...Hellephants. Can’t waste having all of that room in the back.
