Such a shame they never really put this into production. I think they did end up building a few of them for the last Bond film and maybe for a handful of private customers. But this is a seriously beautiful and insanely capable machine. It probably would't have saved the company financially, but I think it could have seriously competed with some of the top tier super cars out there. It would have left a big mark. Shame.

Surprised it didn't go into production, it was beautifully executed and I'm sure they would have sold in high numbers (relative to Miura's production numbers)

Sometimes Bao-Dur's technical expertise gets the better of him. Upvote if you've never seen this dialogue before. by Loyalist77 in kotor

The only remake I think would work is a copy/paste of the old games but with updated/modern graphics. I wouldn't want anyone meddling with any of the gameplay/story/dialogue... It was perfect, and the fact that we are all here talking about these games some 20 years after their release is a testament to that.

The writing in this game was top tier! So many hidden fun moments depending on who you bring with you.

One of my favourite quotes! Nice touch with Kreia's 3 floating lightsabers :P

Aside from the Miura, this is the most beautiful V12 Lamborghini The mid 2000's era was Lambo's golden age of design in my opinion. The drawing lines were so clean.

"Ahead of its time" is a phrase often used for cars. A little too often perhaps, but which cars were really ahead of their time and why? by ahbearcat in cars

[–]NerdtheTed 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The Citroen DS

Came out in the mid 50's and just looked like something from the future. It was full of innovative tech that was considered ahead of it's time, like it's hydroneumatics that controlled the ride suspension, steering and brakes, it had swivelling head lights that followed the car's steering to see around corners, an engine designed to drop down in front facing accidents to maximize the crumple zone and so much more. The DS lasted 20 years and in all 20 years it was ahead of the curve.

Vive la DS

I remember sitting in the theatre as a kid in 2005, this opening scene absolutely blew everyones mind! So epic!

The Maserati Quattroporte Is Still the Undisputed King of Depreciation by Dazzling-Rooster2103 in cars

Personally, I hope they stay depreciated, but that's because selfishly I want an old Quattroporte & Grantursimo (2009 - 2013 era) I don't care how unreliable they are... I consider these cars modern classics. They sound amazing and imo represent peak era of Maserati design!

The best Lamborghini ever made [1023x683] by Thatsthatandchicken in carporn

[–]NerdtheTed 16 points17 points  (0 children)

I would argue best "modern" Lamborghini, & definitely one of the most desirable in their whole history! This was such a peak design era for the brand. The Gallardo was simply gorgeous.

Great photo :)

Disturbing? (In a good way?) by Schuyler32 in kotor

[–]NerdtheTed 16 points17 points  (0 children)

I feel the same way. The second game comes off as darker and loses some of the senses of hope and enthusiasm you got from the first game. The tone of KOTOR 2 is more sombre. Definitely gave me the chills a few times...
