Am I the only one that thinks the Prius v and c should have alternate names? The Prius c could just be simply be called Aqua, just like in Japan, but the Prius v would be still be an Prius, but it'd be called the Prius + instead.
Am I the only one who thinks "Who the hell cares?" --- Post updated --- Which other non-supercar can't be loaded with that?
Not very many. The only other vehicles I know of that had tent support was the Chevrolet Avalanche and Cadillac Escalade EXT.
Presumably insurance not included? Which they will likely try to sell you on the day. Wonder if they will try and make you rent your racing helmet etc? There are many things to look out for with companies that do this sort of thing. So check reviews in advance.
Well, I can't really change what Toyota does anyways, it's their decision if they want to add more to the Prius line-up, or changing car names. It was really my opinion on the names, that they seem to go in an different route in America unlike what they did in Japan (Aqua) and UK (Prius +) by naming them all by Prius, then with an roman numeral even though it's not for consistency. (Ex. of consistency in roman numerals for cars: Renault Laguna)
When do you think Spacecraft will be avaliable as a viable means of public transport? (Assuming we already have bases on mars and the moon) It will happen eventually, private ones for the rich and big "Space Ferries" for tourists with a lot of pocket money.
I'm gonna take a punt at it being after my lifetime. I don't see it happening in the next 80 years (for normal people). I don't think the technology will be around, and frankly, there's a fair chance it could start a war over who owns the land. Especially considering the current international climate. To design and build a moon base alone is probably at least a 10 year process before they even get around to sending anything. So you have at least a 10 year buffer plus the time it takes to make getting into space affordable.
I checked the FAQ on their website, it said insurance is included in the package, and that you'd have to sign a liability waiver when you arrive. It also said they provide helmets for participants at no charge. Here's a link to their FAQ page. It looks like they have good ratings.
Sounds like a fun time then. From memory I think the insurance for these things generally has a fee for making a claim against it (or they only cover a certain percentage of the total damage). Long story short, don't put it in a wall
It does, and a great opportunity too, considering there's not very many opportunities out there for regular people to drive a supercar, let alone on a racetrack.
There are quite a few companies that offer this type of thing. Some "major" brands as well as some smaller track specific ones. There are also companies that offer skidpan training too, which could also be useful skills for the road. Some car manufacturers like Caterham also run their own track day experience thingys: http://uk.caterhamcars.com/experience Caterham only offer in the UK though
Could a corroded fuel-injection fuse cause car to suddenly cut out with very little (and no immediate) warning, no bad noises or engine lockup, no CEL, no other electrical gremlins, and no way of getting it to start again? I guess I'll find out for myself in a while as I'm going back up to where it konked out with a couple fuses to see if that helps...
I don't get why to make Polestar an company that produces it's own cars now, instead of sticking to tuned cars of the official company like MUGEN, NISMO, and TRD. Even if they wanted to make an electric performance group, they could've made that an new subsidiary instead of making one of their already existing subsidiaries into that category.
