The Germans have a word for everything, and when they don’t, they just write a sentence explaining what it does, and remove all the spaces.

Of course it has a name.... it’s German.


“We must name all ze parts” -The Germans

Right... because driving and then stopping has 2 very distinct scenarios where the system can tell if you’re testing?

But a normal ABS module might not work right on a Tesla, because they use regenerative braking (charging the battery by slowing the car down) most of the time, and the brake pads are only used for really hard braking.

It was the ABS, though - the update was to ABS firmware. Here’s the thing, though - we’ve had ABS for a looong time. ABS is one of those things Tesla should be buying from and getting dialed by one of the big suppliers, who’ve been doing it for a long time. It’s possible that other car makers run into that sort of…

Well considering it WAS the ABS that was adjusted, it makes perfect sense. It’s like they didn’t calibrate it properly in the first place.

Have to agree, there was one at CAS for a couple years in a row (along with a few other historic vehicles) while Alfa was still building up inventory to display. It stopped me in my tracks, almost no other car I’ve come across in person has had that affect on me.

You had me at:

God... even a little bitty 2.0 V8 sounds good. Can’t we just reduce the size of each cylinder instead of the total count?

One of the most beautiful cars ever made.

I hate to be the lone dissenter, but this does not add lightness or simplify, which is the spirit of Lotus.

This part needs more attention.

Or someone missed a “to”.

ORIGINAL CAR DO NOT STEAL

This week’s jarring switches to widescreen were particularly disorienting

Photographers just don’t know how to pose models with cars, wedge-shaped cars in particular. Bonus, the video shows how to get into the Lancia Stratos HF Zero. With a helmet, which I’m 99% sure wouldn’t fit once you tried to close the canopy.

Absolutely.

It looks crazy from the front. It looks unrecognizable as a car from the back.
How do you see what’s behind you? Do you just turn and pray?

From everyone, thanks for doing Raph’s work for him.

This car really is insane to see in person. So low to the ground.
