The Tesla Model S, with endless seats, 300-mile range and magic door handles, is the car you design if you don't have to build it. Unrestricted by reality, what does your fantasy car look like?
Our car looks like an El Camino-ized Citroën DS but drives like an E39 and is powered by a hi-tech turbodiesel V8 that puts out 400 HP and 450 lb-ft of torque and still manages to achieve 100 MPG. It hits 60 MPH in 2.3 seconds with a top speed of 201 MPH. It doesn't have a stereo, but the horn plays a random selection from the Minutemen. It's as docile as an El Do when cruising and ferocious as a Viper off the line. It's as reliable as a Volvo 240 and yet it's constantly being destroyed in horrific, Enzo-like crashes only to rise again like a phoenix. It is... The Jalopnik.
Or, you know, the Pontiac G8 ST.
