well, someone has to counter the fact-free allegations of other posts, for instance this one: ? Look, David, we’ve been over this so many times: it’s not all about EVs, nor is it about “software”. I watched the SavageGeese interview with Rawlinson - your remark that “no one speaks like this at...

BMW had it right, apparently. I’m not pulling an about-face on EVs, but it’s good to know one can dream of a GT4 in the future. And keep working on synthetic fuels.

Violations of .. not alerting? Or violations of the speed limit + 10? Does that depend on the year model of the vehicle? (Yes, I am 'leading'..)

At least they don’t suck at software. (yes, dripping with /sarcasm)

The unending delays (ID, Macan EV), the failed experiments with Cariad, the deluge of recalls and stop-sales must have been ruinously expensive for the group; and that’s on top of the general slowdown in CN and other big markets, the cost of continuing development, cost of energy and so on. I...

Woohoo! Any bets on the timing of the next recall?

So nothing changed.

So.. a different EV caused the fire?

Ye of little faith.. ? We’re not done with ICE for a long while. For the vast majority on transportation needs (as in trips/scenarios), EVs and even current infrastructure are sufficient, but outside of those they are simply outmatched. I find it unbelievable, time and time again, how...

Here’s another one - and please excuse the background story, I think it helps explain why this was an extraordinary encounter. In early 2017 I picked up my 996 from Santa Cruz, and drove down to LA for a consulate appointment. My first time in California, in a 911, and a few other firsts. The...

I don’t mean to be a nuisance, but I’d need more info on the rules: - is it “pics or didn’t happen”? - do gatherings/events count? Or just casual, on-the-street encounters? (How about museums?) - replicas ok? (I assume not) The downside of my obsession with this brand is that I’ve become quite...

TIL that the S/T is either offered only in America, or that its price is only outrageous to Americans. Not sure, I’m still parsing this: “If this isn’t the greatest scam ever perpetrated on the American public, I don’t know what is.”

Yes. Well, what did you expect? I find the colors to be extremely delicious. That is, by the way, one well-written app/page, I went through 100+ colors yesterday - all beautifully and quickly rendered. It sure as hell beats Rennbow.com. I saw some old favorites, and while it’s not for me, I’m...

? I was merely going for a pun - “popular” == general, communal, prevalent -> “of the majority”. But, to borrow your analogy, the puzzling aspect of this country (and despite its relative low taxation) is that the 9:1 wolves *still* won’t vote “sheep for dinner” because, somehow, one day they...

Those which a majority agrees upon. ? (Like, say, a $10 EV tax..)

Regressive taxes are not popular.

Is this new? A few months ago I made a trip to Whistler. On both legs, the built-in nav avoided recommending stations I knew existed, because it had more uh, current information. No Fs were given, though. (In case anyone cares, the details: - EA station in Bellingham, WA had derated chargers as...

A similar piece, in video format:

The US dealer model is very different from UK/Europe's. (Porsche have tried once to change it, and it cost the then-CEO his job - though not immediately. Too bad, he was actually quite a good fellow - he saved the 911 from being axed.)

And you'd have to do that because the time travel machine likely has capacitive touch buttons.
