I’d put it in a two seater convertible like a Miata, but make the hood longer to fit the engine and give it a more aggressive stance.

Also kinda drives home the point that all the appeal for this is the novelty of: “we put a viper engine in (x)“. The reality is that you can get a mopar crate motor that makes more power and takes up less space to do whatever you want this thing to do.

I’ve never really been a fan of tacked on Screens, but I’m actually liking the circular screen for some reason...Mirror mirror on the wall kinda vibe.

I will buy it and make something crazier and more dangerous than Dodge ever dreamed of making.

The base Mustang GT has over 400hp now. Back then it had 215hp.

It’s funny how our expectations change. In this era of Hellcat motors putting out 700+hp, getting only 400hp from an 8L V10 seems almost quaint.

C’mon Ryan, if you’re going to write about science and space you should really be familiar with the X-37B. THAT is what it’s a copy of, not the space shuttle. 

Yeah, I fully agree.

Are we gonna say that every plane copied each other at this point? or cars copy each other for the general shape?

Looks a lot more like the X-37B than the space shuttle to me. X-37B is also unmanned.

Musk will last until he has some sort of small disagreement with Trump about something. 

I look forward to Trump stiffing him like he did Guiliani and the rest of his crew. There’s no honor among thieves.

Is this for real the first time y'all have heard someone call them that? Or do I just read way too much opinionated automotive journalism? Lol. That term has been around since before they even started deliveries. Only mentioning this because I've seen 4 or 5 comments like yours on this article, this isn't really aimed…

Did the dear fly into orbit like they sometimes do?

It’s also feasible to believe that this “million” number was purposefully inflated as a stock price manipulator, as Musk is wont to do.

it’s wholly possible that they had 1-2 million reservations, and people started cancelling them as soon as they saw what a donkey of a car it is. then musk turning into a raging nazi took care of whatever other reservations were left and not delivered on.

It’s a little 16k town in northern CA that didn’t bother investigating what would fit their needs or what else they’d need to get to make them useful parts of their fleet.

It’s the batteries - super heavy, they’ll always sink.

If We Can Figure Out How to Make Them

Always been a problem with chemical rockets is you need more to go farther, but then you need to carry more fuel, then you need more fuel to carry more fuel and so on until you get to a point where the amount of fuel you need to go a certain speed and distance outweighs the universe. Plus you need fuel to slow down…
