I was shocked to see this about cars...

[FromMyColdDeadHand]

Let me get this straight... the 2021 Porsche Taycan Turbo S doesn’t have a fuel burning engine? I assumed it was a hybrid electric/gas-turbo engine. But it’s all electric, but they call it a turbo? From Porsche, from the Germans - the engineering people. They couldn’t come up with a name for Uber fast/powerful propulsion systems? They just plaster ‘turbo’ on their? Isn’t that false advertising?

And this is after Ford calling a four door car with an electric motor a ‘Mustang’. What the fudge.

I’m not anti electric. Interesting tech. Just seems odd that they are doing a bait and switch with the marketing.

Colorado is trying to pass a law that larger companies have to have a plan and incentives for their employees to get out of their cars and into public transit..

Colorado has a lot of stupid plans. That's why I'm working on moving to NM.

If Porsche called it like it is, it'd be the Taycan Type S White-Privilege Virtue Signal Edition. But they'd probably get an angry tweat from Musk for infringing on his trademark.

Taycan Type S White-Privilege Virtue Signal Edition.

FWIW Does it come with a red button for "turbo" like the old arcade grand prix racer game?

I actually saw a four door mustang a few days ago and it was quite literally the gayest thing that I have ever seen and if you know my browser history then that is really saying something

No doubt!

So I haven't seen the 4-door mustang yet. It's a little bit of a prole car for around here. Electric for poors.

I'm a little salty about all this at the moment. Just a bit ago some WASPy asshole in an Audi eTron tried to run me down in the crosswalk. I'm sure him and his Tesla driving jerkoff buddies will have a good laugh about it at the golf course later.

A few years ago the talk was "Why doesn't Chevy come up with a four door Camaro?" Now it's Ford with the Mustang. It's like the auto industry wants to cater to the market that has sons/grandsons of fathers/grandfathers that drove real muscle/sports cars. Except this "younger generations wants to feel like they're driving bad-ass cars but need the room in the back for the child seats, dog, cooler, and tablet screens in the back of the front seat to keep the kids satisfied. A new category of "Muscle Family Green" cars.

When I see a two door Mustang, Camaro, and Challenger, I can see the lineage of their ancestral DNA, it warms my heart. These four door abominations degrade and defame their badges. What's next, a four door Corvette?

The 4 door Mustang, circa 2003... (AKA Mercury Marauder)
