There should be one handle per door, half pull - electronic, full pull mechanical.

That front release is well designed and intelligently placed. The rear one is fucking stupid, and makes me wonder if they had 2 separate departments designing the front and rear doors. 

Can you imagine the morons who sat there designing this thing and literally thought “how can we better hide this emergency release latch so it can’t be seen at all?”

Rizz Lending.

My 992 has electronic door handles. If the power fails, guess how you open them? The same way you open them when the power is on. Same lever. It just uses the mechanical latch when there isn’t power. If Teslas were well-designed they would work the same way, but Teslas are low-end garbage.

“Never underestimate the transmission bandwidth of a station wagon full of magnetic tapes hurtling down the freeway.”

The article is conflating bandwidth with transmission time (which is essentially lag), and these are not the same thing at all.

petabyte(bit)/second hasn’t anything to do with the transmission propagation rate, it has to do with the transmission bandwidth. Transmission delay has to do with the transmission propagation rate; as you noted, latency.

The Mercedes “Illuminated Star”

Similar but Lexus dealers who had a LFA put them in a corner and roped them off and wouldn’t let anyone even get *near* it. Luckily the value was found in them. The Z will never be that special.

The unfortunate part is that current Morgan cars globally are autotragic only (due to BMW mostly having abandoned stickshifts)

Which I don’t even know why, you’re job is to sell the car. They should be proud to show it off and let people get in it and whatnot. With that said, I don’t know how I feel about them yet. I don’t think they’re ugly, but I don’t gravitate to them.
