Nio EP9 - electric car - 1360 HP - 0-60 2.7 sect 0-125 7 secs

In China we invest much in electric cars, EVs' mileage worsen in cold winter, but in Thailand they would fare superb if there's no trade barrier! ???? ( elec cars AC consume less than heating )

 

I love the BYD hybrid-plugin SUV, 0-100 4.5~4.9s awd, heavy 6 pot disc brakes all around (mistaken. only for debut promo version), 80km on battery, using safer LiFePo rather than questionable 18650. For a neat new price of ￥170k ~ $26,000, far more accesible compare to Tesla!

When I was a kid, my fantasy car was the Porsche 917.  Air cooled, 4.5 or 5 Litre, depending on the race series, straight 12, twin-turbocharged and tuned to over 1,500 BHP for the 917/30 that dominated the last years of Can-Am racing.  0 - 100 in 2.3 sec, 0 - 200 in 5.3 sec.  Road legal replicas exist, but there's a couple of real street legal ones in Monaco, each worth around USD45 Million:
