SA here - our local ones have a weight sensor (I’ve seen green bins left full with a little sticker informing the bin-owner that it wasn’t collected because it was too heavy).

The thing is that you don’t need a supercar today to go stupid fast. I have coworker has a Telsa Y. It gets to 60 in 3.5 seconds. I don’t think any car from my high school days could come close to matching it.

Since the tires filled with air already have 78% nitrogen in them, how about I pay $110 to get the other 22%?

Xanadu was never good. I was alive (-i-i-i-iiiiive) when it came out. Any nostalgia is for the soundtrack’s greatness or the movie’s unabashed badness. It had fantastic radio hit songs, star power in ONJ and Gene freaking Kelly, and utterly inept shooting and editing that didn’t turn these into anything watchable.

Only thing good about Xanadu is ELO/Jeff Lynne doing the soundtrack to it.

Similarly... Hackers? A classic? (And then the troll inclusion of Dr Strangelove)

Five Twilight movies being made was one of the scariest things to actually happen.

You didn’t see the 1966 Impala that GAS did then. It was gorgeous. And it got a biodiesel engine swap that allowed it to beat a Lamborghini at the race track.

You know, I hear there’s some space in the back parking lot of Cesar’s in Vegas, they might want to set up some cones there, and race.

This EV won’t work for me because the commute to my job is 20 miles each way and once I get there they don’t give me enough money to buy this car.

Along with an Opel GT and Karmann Ghia. Great sense of style, but if he was trying to chase down anyone from KAOS, well, missed ‘em by that much.

Formula 1 Everyone Is Making This Up As It Goes

I grew up in a Southern Illinois backwater. We certainly didn’t have any Lambo’s around me. I just “knew” it was the coolest car I had ever seen a picture of.  I’m not sure if I’ve ever seen one in person, come to think of it

You beautiful bastard, have a jealousy star.

Same. Excited to see an Ioniq 5 in person, particularly to get a sense of the scale. VW’s ev efforts thus far are a huge swing-and-a-miss for me.

Most dealers in the US have anywhere from 100-300 cars sitting on the lot. Sometimes more if it’s a multi-branded dealer. You can also order cars to your liking but it takes months to receive it.

Yeah, it’s not uncommon for single dealer lots to have 100 of the same model here. If you’re an average buyer, they’ll have an average version in average colors.

Yep. If a majority of Americans knew that most other countries didn’t require people to buy through dealers for new cars and instead could buy directly from factory, they’d be furious.
