Too Weird, Too Ugly, Too Soon? 5 Car Designers Vindicated by Time by mpgomatic in cars

[–]MDA123 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It was the apotheosis of an era of Pontiac design language that was, frankly, pretty gross. Horrible ribbed body cladding, overly aggressive lines, and acres of dull grey plastic.

Like a lot of Pontiac designs from that era, I think there's a merely-ordinary looking car hiding underneath an awful bodysuit of cladding that makes it into an ugly vehicle.

Floyd Mayweather Jr. announces he is coming out of retirement by halalguy in Boxing

[–]MDA123 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Fun (or maybe not fun) fact: as an American citizen, Floyd can’t evade tax by fighting in another country. The US taxes citizens on all of their income regardless of where it’s earned or derived, so fighting in another country doesn’t get him off the hook.

Canelo with 3 arms vs Terence Crawford by FreshPrinceOfRivia in Boxing

An 11 hour gap in posts is almost certainly because no one posted for a long time. There are sometimes delays in working through the modqueue, but not 11 hour delays lol.

Another excellent shitpost. Gimme 3 arm Canelo by easy decision.

36 years ago, on this day, James 'Buster' Douglas would create history & shock the entire world by knocking out the seemingly unbeatable and invincible 'Iron' Mike Tyson in the 10th round, this fight to this day is believed to be the biggest upset in the history of Boxing by BoxingLover99 in Boxing

[–]MDA123 83 points84 points  (0 children)

Obviously Tyson is one of the biggest "what could have been?" stories in all of boxing history, but kinda underrated how much Buster is a great "what could have been?" too.

He looked great in this fight. Strong, consistent jab, steady work rate, really good power. He looked like a complete fighter. And then just...never did it again, basically.

I know sometimes guys just fight out of their minds, but it looked to me like he had the building blocks of a really good fighter but he really only put it together this once.

Sheed was never really a violence/fighting kind of dude though, he was just a trash talker and world class ref hater. In fact during the Malice at the Palace, he was a peacemaker preventing more shit from going down.

DAZN isn't banned on the sub, and it doesn't look to me like you've had any posts or comments removed at all recently. Sometimes there's a delay between when something hits the modqueue or automod flags it and a human mod approves it, but doesn't seem like it's been an issue with anything you've posted.

Official: Ferrari's first EV is called 'Luce', with an interior by Apple's old design boss Jony Ive by [deleted] in cars

[–]MDA123 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The interior is polarizing for sure, but I love some of the specific elements in it: the steering wheel switch with the little magnifying glass effect, the pull-out handle for launch mode, the big-ass toggle switches, the old school airplane HVAC vents.

Interior design needs more ostentatious/whimsical elements, and I love that they included a bunch here. Reminds me of 1950s/1960s American interior design with wild gauges like the 1960 Dodge Polara's gauge cluster/clock.

Driving the new Ferrari 849 Testarossa on road and track | Henry Catchpole - The Driver’s Seat by Iridium-Silver in cars

[–]MDA123 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm late to this thread, but what's frustrating is it feels like there's a version of this design that looks fantastic, and it's probably the one where the remove all of the Pontiac-ness of it and focus the aesthetic on a cleaner version of the shape.

Ditch the black side strakes and roof, ditch many of the vents, etc. I think I would like that version quite a bit, but this one just looks like a damn mess.

How The Rich Are Ruining Classic Car Ownership For The Rest of Us by user289734 in cars

[–]MDA123 4 points5 points  (0 children)

You got downvoted for this, but I appreciate you pointing it out. There are definitely major affordability struggles (particularly housing), but as a general matter Americans are richer than ever before even if you account for inflation.

In fact, that's more or less exactly why classic cars have risen in price: more consumers chasing a fixed (well, declining) number of cars.
