The 996 was not unreliable. It had a fixable design-defect.

Bonanza and King Air both come to mind.

There are a couple ways. I think there's tutorials online.

May I ask what aircraft you were flying in?

Again, they were both street racing and putting other people's lives at risk on a public road. It's on a recording. If the R35 would have been doing the speed limit, he would have had ample reaction time. They were both at fault and caught reckless.

They were both street racing. Not only that, but it's on a recording. No one is going to show added sympathy for the "victim."

If I were you, I would seriously be planning a massive off-road rally in some event just to have a great time in it. Abuse the hell out of it on some legitimate trails.

Most simply don't care about having expensive and showy vehicles; they're smart enough to realize owning vehicles for a very long time, and caring for them properly, is immensely more cost effective than driving an unnecessary new vehicle. I know many of the wealthiest in the state of Georgia, and they drive trucks,…

Really? They were both inherent causes to the accident.

Don't look at it too long; it might give you opthalmoplegia!

He probably acted innocent and blamed it on the F458 anyway.

I meant it in terms of modern versions of their immense durability and heft being produced.

Yes. You're right. You're just not look at the big picture; it's the underlying causes of Lexus and the economy at the time. That's what I'm trying to portray here. The governments were restricting the economy, etc.

It was a different time back then, and everyone was being pushed to do things because of the ultimate big picture for future transportation (and environments). It was the economy that sparked it all. The governments pushed restrictions into place, people reacted, etc.

There's a big difference between environmentalists and self-proclaimed "environmentalists."

Oh look! Another prick! Good enough my ass. What the hell were you developing in 1995 that had the innovations the 220 had?

Electric vehicles are not "any car." They are much more obsolete and disposable. Just like any other piece of battery technology, the consumers will continue to trade-up as soon as a better product comes to market. A similar trend occurs with any smartphone. Fossil fuel vehicles do not become obsolete as quickly. And,…

Thank you. It's nice to know there are some left on Jalopnik who can think and reason. Most are just too biased to have a want to understand anything realistic.

Essentially, it was a consequence of competing for eco-friendly cheaper-designed vehicles and lightweight technology having been rushed into production. This forced an abandonment of classic MB principles.
