  • Submitting a new frivolous acquisition - 991.2 Carrera GTS in agate grey with 7MT. I haven't had a "fun" car in years. The itch has been growing and I settled on a manual 911. I've been patiently wait

  • I've been looking for over 2 years for a Miami Blue 991.2 slick top with a 7MT and RAS, and finally found one. Carrera T with all the aforementioned options and 9k miles. Fucking love this thing.

  • Hah. It couldn’t go over 20mph at that point and was just going to the dealership from the truck. She’s home now. Will try to post more pics tonight but here she is.

Are you a geometry teacher?

All eight people who bought one agree.


I should say cool looking *. It was not practical and it was an Isuzu.

You are right and I also do not know how specifically it compares. I have not been able to find much on the subject. I would like to learn more on it to see if it’s truly comparable. One thing though is that they won’t have the supremely low wheel speed modulation that the lower gearing allows to crawl over objects. Nobody is going to be rock crawling in this thing though so it probably won’t matter.

But, this has 3 motors, which is why I assume it will have the traditional drive unit in the rear, which will mean it cannot take advantage of that torque vectoring like the Rivian can (except possibly in the front).

 

I think mechanically or dynamically, it will be able to crawl just fine.  But the throttle response would be soo different from a combustion-engine 4WD vehicle.  But, again, software could come to the rescue there with a different throttle-response curve.

Has anyone seen pictures of the visibility from the driver's seat? Those A and C(ish...) pillars (vertices?) look like tremendous obstacles for actual driving.

It drives itself. Who needs to see!

They should have had Barry Bostwick dressed like Ace Hunter climbing out of that thing.  I love it.  It needs a flamethrower, though.

I've been buried so I wasn't able to check it all out, but the DBX was officially unveiled this week.

The red color was meh, but I love this blue.

I’m still not sure if this whole thing is a troll attempt.

I'll buy that for a dollar!

The 6000 SUX is a way better name than Cybertruck

I was too distracted by the shitty design to think about the shitty name. It may be shittier than the design.

You sued the last company that made something that did that.

Not too late to change it to the Trig

Forward and rearward visibility even more compromised than I thought. 

And a dumb steering wheel. 

I don't know what to make of the "is the dash real marble?" comment - seems like it's an imprudent substance to make a dashboard out of, whatever it is.

Some entertaining ideas in the thread. 

 

If you're not sick of my car sagas, more hijinks continued.

After a long lull in any new cars appearing in inventory on the Tesla website, a handful of them appeared yesterday.  As I've been waiting 2 months for a gray one with no known delivery date, I said fuck it and decided to snap up the available blue one instead.  Clicked on the Buy button, paid the deposit, and saw the new blue vehicle appear in my account (alongside the original gray order).

Flash forward this morning, I logged back on the website and the fucking blue one disappeared.  Credit card still shows the deposit charge. 

Took a trip to the store where they explained, based on their record, someone tried to buy that same blue car in the morning, their deposit had some issues, and it was eventually resolved and thus assigned/sold to that person.  great job of inventory management, guys.  Whatever.  They said sorry and to keep on waiting.

 

Tonight an even larger batch of cars popped up on the website.  Like 20 identical ones.  I chose one with the coolest VIN number and put in yet another deposit.  And when I "purchased" it, they actually provided estimated delivery date (around XMAS), which they didnt before.  So if the purchase works...merry christmas to me.  If not.... maybe ill just buy a fucking nissan leaf

 

I've seen plenty of the Stingray shooting brake conversions, but never this prototype. Could have been pretty slick looking with curvier hips. 

 

I was hoping the new Ford abomination was going to be a Mustang shooting brake. Of course not though.

I got to drive a DB 11 around a week or so for a cousin who wanted to get it out of the snow. It was very nice. Previous owner had put $18k of gold appointments under the hood. No idea why.

The trunk has just enough room for a music stand and evidently the previous owner’s shitty headgear.
