It has to be the Benz Patent-Motorwagen. The first true automobile. Karl Friedrich Benz 1885. Gasoline automobile powered by an internal combustion engine: three wheeled, Four cycle, engine and chassis form a single unit.
It would be a semi-translucent white bubble with one button. It would be overpriced and you could only buy it from one dealer. If you opened the hood you would void the warranty and why would you, it would be so proprietary that you couldn't do anything to it anyways. You could only get music from iTunes on the radio and the battery would die frequently. It would have windows, as an aftermarket option but they wouldn't work really well.
I miss the choke knob on my RX-7. I don't guess that they are going to put a pushbutton transmission back into the Dart now that they have bastardized it, huh?
I love all the little chrome toggle switches center mounted top and bottom in my MINI. Sometime I pretend that I am an airline pilot at stoplights and randomly switch them on and off.
Why is this in the "Everything that didn't suck" column. About the only people who could get excited about this are the buying execs for rental car companies.
Honda Forums: So like does anybody like have a friend or something in Japan who can like buy and ship me some of the carbon-fiber wrapped JDM exhaust bearings? I heard they were like good for like 30whp.
You can't tell that it's crap just by looking at it? If you wanted to get more technical, the market for this.....thing....has a demo group of about 9 years old to maybe 16-17. The exact same group that can't afford to buy a car. Even if the range extended into the early twenties, this...thing...will not be cheaply produced. It will necessarily have to be priced higher than the OEM it is based on to afford the silly plastic bits, the Vader grille, administrative and mfg overhead and William's pockets.
