that's the coolest subtitle ever for a video "Supersonic skydiver"

Talk about arriving in style. I want to drive up to every meeting like that.

Would love to drive something like this, maybe with a 2.5-2.8L Diesel for a little more power. Give it a tow rating of > 3500# and you got yourself a sale.

I do believe this will be my next car. My 2010 Golf will be just up for lease when it comes to Canada, so that should be perfect. The 170hp in the Golf is zippy enough, 220 should be fantastic.

I love doing this. My enthusiasm is tempered a little, though, because my car is FWD and oversteer usually means stretching the p-brake cable...

Awesome, my first AOTD hat tip! Thanks for shining light on the incredible stories of so many programs and especially the 60's NASA missions. It still boggles my mind that they were completely successful and saddens me to think that we'll likely never see such an ambitious project again.

Absolutely it has to be the run up to the moon missions in the 1960s. When you read about the technical limitations the team faced when the Mercury project started up (about 4 channels of telemetry, communication coverage using a dozen tracking ships and stations and data logging with TeleType machines) vs where they…

I've always thought pleasure crafts are well suited to electric drive, with immense low end torque for hole shots and high RPM for top speed. The batteries adding huge weight could be a problem, though. I hope to one day electrify a powerboat, or even turn it into a hybrid... using the large fuel tank to power a small…

All I have to say is... YES

I hope other manufacturers take notice, because I would love a Diesel in an F150.

What's the 0-88 mph time of the DeLorean with that V6?

That was the inspiration for the entire question.

I has a sad. Raptor != Trophy Truck

Wow, engineering porn is right! That's a fantastic video

I love that it sounds like a rally car, but still has the unmistakable sound of a Porsche flat six.

OK thanks, that makes more sense.

So is this is the actual successor to the Enzo or a potential Porsche 918 Spyder rival? What does that make the F12Berlinetta

It's certainly intriguing, and would be a wrench into the mix of existing hot hatch players. And more horsepower out of a smaller engine than the GTI? Nice.

It's also for insurance fraud, especially in Russia. Check out how many times a dash cam video has people getting out angrily, then having the other person point to the camera and they drive away...

But Main Street's still all cracked and broken!
