Cool Car

I know this is not computer related, but it is somewhat technical.

 

Check this car out by Swiss design company Rinspeed.

Movses jan, that is exactly what I thought when I saw all the pictures of this car. I guess one has to jump in it.

 

Sip that car was funny. I had never seen anything like that.

I'm seek and tired of the stupid Chevy Tahoe Z-71 , it's one of the worst cars that has ever been made.

 

I have driven a Toyota for long time and some germen cars, but i love Toyotas wary much. i believe my next car is a Toyota Sequoia. by brother just gat hold one, nice car, good handling. much better brake system and it better on gas than my Chevy.

 

another car that i have been looking for is an old Toyota - land curser - 2door -, like to restore-modify one and take it to Hunting and 4x4ing. will one day whan i stop spending so much time on the web- i might get hold of one

Those old Landcruisers are awesome! Actually the new ones are also good except that they are soooo fricking expensive

 

About the Sequoia, I have read a lot of articles about it. The general concensus is that it is a Toyota so you can expect a good quality vehicle It is not particularly suited for off roading and "4-wheeling" due to its very "mushy" suspension and limited wheel travel ... i.e. off-road, it would be very easy to lift one of the wheels into the air!

 

Also, they have a lot of sophisticated electronics that take the control away from the driver. But that probably makes it very easy to drive on the streets and use the 4x4 feature for snow/ice conditions.

 

But I have always been a Chevy man myself

 

By the way, Azat, they don't say what happens to rear passengers! I wouldn't want to be sitting at the back of that thing when it starts to collapse like that!!!!

I was wondering what would happen to that car if it gets in a rear-end collision. I for sure would not want to be in the back.

Hey by the way, I just noticed that your nice classic landcruiser was parked on a handicap spot ... you may want to move it before you get a ticket http://zr2.cs.ucla.edu/Sip/zr2/roflmao.gif

Rumor has it that soon LA drivers are going to drive one of these SUV to work.

Actually couple of summers ago I was on one at Colombia Icefield in Banff National Park. It was a lot of fun. BTW: The tiers are taller than I.

What's up tonight? Did I miss something? I have been at UCLA for the past 35 hours with a 2 hour nap on my chair! In the past 70 hours I have probably had about 4 or 5 hours of sleep ... man I feel good right now ... but I'll probably sleep all Saturday !!!

 

Graduate life is very strange ... there are weeks that I don't do much and then there are weeks that there is sooo much happening I forget to eat, sleep, shower, and sometimes even to go to bathroom

 

By the way, you may want to check out This bad boy ... the way SUVs are going, we'll probably see those in LA soon.
