By temperament and by instinct I have a need for the superfluous. — Gabriele d’Annunzio

A new car is a formidable enabler of freedom, of course. It allows its owner to travel anywhere, at any time, without sticking to a public transportation schedule. It is — more or less — a symbol of speed and an expression of the individual. It is a private cocoon, sometimes the last refuge where a man is left alone for any meaningful amount of time. And, nota bene, the car is intensely hated by our rulers
...
Sadly, this same regulation has also made modern cars fat, ugly, and boring.
...
The proper alternative to driving a modern car, of course, is not public transportation. It is owning a classic car — as a treat for special occasions, or even as an everyday driver. Interestingly, many regulators try to shut the use of classic cars down, but some countries recognize them as part of their cultural and industrial heritage and protect your right to own and use them.


...
All the classic cars were invented by white men. For example:

Maybe someday we will build cars with the focus on style, aesthetic and good engineering. And of course, spewing copious amounts of CO2 that make the woke cry little salty tears!

(regulating technology for vague and unsubstantiated reasons like global warming is a one-way ticket to obscenity and purposelessness)
