    Exactly what I was thinking. Isn't it too new?
    Lack of charisma can be fatal.

    Not really. It's mostly the idea.
    I'm dropping out to create a company that starts with motorcycles, then cars, and forty years later signs a legendary Brazilian driver who has a public and expensive feud with his French teammate.

    Actually, me as well. I like looking at the car at its height. By making it a hot rod, you're chopping up the car- altering its appearance permanently.

    I wouldn't mind if a person modeled a new car, built a tube chassis or something, and put the engine in. Just don't mess with the original.

    It's not anything against having fun. It's just an opinion.
