What am I missing?



First of all, it's got four doors. Sports cars have no more than two, sometimes even less.
Secondly, what the hell does "Turbo" mean on an electric car?
Third, and most important, they just aren't paying attention.

No one cares anymore.

Charger, yeah bring it back. NO what the **** was that?
Camaro, yeah bring it back. NO what the **** was that?
Mustang, yeah bring it back. wait it never went anywhere. Lets make it electric. NO what the **** is that.

There is no soul left in the auto industry.

I hear there is an abandoned one, somewhere around Mars.

Funny because any Tesla would run circles around the Porsche yet the Tesla is considered a luxury car.

My favorite Porsche will always be the 904.



The car in the photo was 1st in class and 4th overall at Le Mans in 1965. They finished just 12 laps short of the winning Ferrari 250 LM.

I actually saw one of those Tesla/Lotus sports cars back when I was working at CG Air Station SF....passed me on I-280.

And the Turbo thing...People think "turbo" added to ANYTHING makes it better...And don't even know what "Turbo" means......(Apparently including Porsche management)

The irony is that pushing that "turbo" button slowed the computer down to play older programs at the correct speed.

I used to have all kinds of stuff pass me on 280 near Palo Alto, including a red Ferrari 458.

There's no such thing as 'truth in advertising' anymore.
