>fastest car in the world>no soulWhy does this happen so frequently?
>>28699930Define "car with soul"
>>28699930Speed =/= sovlKoenigsegg lost its soul when it stopped using supercharged Ford blocks.
>>28699930this design is no different than all the other supercar slop that’s out there. we’ve hit the performance limits of legacy systems like ICE, vacuum boosted brakes, vacuum boosted steering. to get more performance out of a new design, the only way to go is electrical assists, including hybridization and things like DCTs since these assists decouple the driver from controlling the vehicle, that is where the “loss of soul” comes from
>>28699930>fastest car in the worldNo one cares anymore. We've got rich fatigue too. I can stroll through a decade of rich people begging for attention in front of status objects on YT right now. It's clear they're just as pathetic as anyone else so no one gives a shit anymore.
>>28699977Good take. Most people don't give a shit about "I SPENT 10M ON THIS CAR LOOL AT ME" anymore. Even if some rich dude just paid a shop to build his car, the details, the finished result and a good ride-along are much more interesting than endless arab-bait that will never be driven
>>28699934The funny part about the Gemera is that every single customer chose the option for the V8. Every production Gemera is a V8.

because it's an exercise of engineering rather than a good design. nobody with a family is going to drive this shit, and nobody who wants performance would get a sedan. it solves no problems while introducing countless others.
>>28699930>fastest car in the worldNo it isn't, it's going to be stashed away in some rich Arab's garage and never driven.
>>28699977Hyper-cars went from being the best ND goal of every kid to Saudi-prince bait that had statistics completly unimpressive to the average person. I think it was around the time of the release of cars like the hellcat and the ZR1 were supercar hp numbers just were in reach of the normal person, and social media showing that 99% of the rich end up just driving attainable (poor financial decision) sports cars rather than buying some hyper Ferrari or Bugatti as previously thought
>>28699933The 1996 Geo Tracker
Kneel.Eggman can do no wrong
>>28700016>There were so few left that asked for a three-cylinder, we managed to convince almost all of them [to go for the V8 instead]. So for the time being, it [the Gemera] is V8 only.Why would you lie anon?
>>28699930Because they only cared about numbers.
