The destruction of a way of life, that of a purely gas powered engine, who's rumble vibrates and creates a moist river of love and satisfaction between a woman's legs will soon be on its way out, thanks to ridiculous looking pricks, the environmentalists. Porsche, who was once the most profitable car company in the world, has chosen to concede defeat and has embraced their cowardice with the introduction of the new 918 Spyder.
This open two-seater is powered by a high-speed V8 developing more than 500 bhp and running at maximum speed engine of 9,200 rpm as well as electric motors on the front and rear axle with overall mechanical output of 218 bhp (160 kW). An emission level of just 70 grams CO2 per kilometre on fuel consumption of three litres/100 kilometres (equal to 94 mpg imp) truly outstanding even for an ultra-compact city car, on the one hand, combined with the performance of a super sports car and acceleration from a standstill to 100 km/h in just under 3.2 seconds, top speed of 320 km/h (198 mph) plus, and a lap time on the Nordschleife of Nürburgring in less than 7:30 minutes, faster than even the Porsche Carrera GT, on the other.
Yes, the consumption levels, and performance figures are quite remarkable. Yes the car looks incredibly sexy. Regardless of the previous stated facts, I cannot but help to think that this car is purely built for the sake of marketing and image. Porsche wants to please the anti-Christ, and they believe that Porsche 918 Spyder is the vessel that will lead them right to him.
Many of us know how environmentally unfriendly the lithium ion batteries are. Wouldn't a simple turbocharged six cylinder engine be much more efficient than having V8 engine, additional electric motors, and a battery that weighs over 100 kilograms?
I'm no engineer, but I have studied psychology, and I can confidently say that we are going through an important turning point. This is the time when we men need to grab on to our balls more than ever. Let us stand up side by side and fight for the preservation of our lifestyle. We say: Thank you Porsche for designing such an awesome looking car, but no thanks to the dickless engineering that you have put in it. A battery belongs in a woman's toy, and has no place in a man's toy.
