had heard all kinds of crazy stories lately but the used car market has really gotten outta hand!

if only there was something that could be bought for 20k that could give you the experience of being out there on the open road!!!

And if you crash it destroys itself and you have to fight with insurance to get it repaired. May as well go for the real experience.

Pay 20 grand for the fake virtual experience, or pay 20 grand for the real thing.......

at least this way you can mod the car to have a V8 and other stuff and then you can say to the real lifers that THIS is how the car should have come from the factory at this price.......

Internet wins again!


Or maybe this is a preview of what an EV twin will be like......

Actually dope.

Good use of interior pieces that would probably just go to a dumpster.

Does the shifter rattle at the top of 4th and 5th gear?
