The problem with that is finding one that someone wants to sell.

Fenske skewered the charging interface on Engineering Explained.
As he explained it, it’s a PITA, and for me, defo not worth the money based on that alone.

Is it required that I wear undies while piloting this rig?

We need serious electrical infrastructure investment before this can happen nation wide. I don’t know if California is equipped to handle 20% of the civilian fleet changing to electric by 2035 (estimate for new car sales turnover), let alone every single car on the road (a theoretical much later goal).

MR2 - Toyota already has WAY BETTER hybrid tech than BMW. I think an MR2 as a Hybrid makes a lot of sense for a weekender, and you design the unibody so that you can accommodate a full EV as your first refresh, so you can hammer out those last few EV bugs.

It was about 2004, and I was still in college. There was an ad in the local paper for a black 1991 Acura NSX for $16,900, with 110k miles. It would have been quite a payment for me at the time, but I probably could have swung it.

Yeah. I didn’t.

You would have had WAY MORE FUN.

Go listen to an F-Type and get back to me.

It just hit me, this is probably the swansong for the UR group V8s in non-trucks.

Everything from here on out is going to be a V35 V6 or a variant of the V35.

Umm, YES PLEASE.

Are these EVs like a Tesla, or EREVs like a Volt?

You’re all wrong.
Import this from Germany.

1st: Is the predator face going away!?

The Highlander Hybrid uses this V6 (2GR) with a hybrid assist. Retuned to Lotus levels of power with forced induction, it won’t suck.

Thorium reactors? Are they realistic?

I know your heart’s in the right place, but why not Freevalve them instead? You get ALL the MPGs and ALL the power, with itty bitty living space. Added bonus: Way fewer moving parts, massive leap in removing parasitic losses. Can also lengthen the stroke (=TORQUE) because very small head.

Yes, I want the Phoenix.

The Sky is a better looking car than the Solstice. IDGAF what anyone thinks.

So, A Civic Type-RFR?

The taillight shape from the original should have been incorporated in to the new design, for sure. They could have done a Corvette-like thing where they keep the same idea in each iteration, just restyled for the current model.
