We drove the 1750HP SSC Tuatara! What a thing it was! How's it feel? Compare to a Bugatti or a Pagani or a Koenigsegg? Is it worth the money? And what about that record thing...

Plus, Mercedes stops selling EVs in CA; fuel economy standards end: what does it mean?; and we answer Patreon questions including:

Why do old cars have "patina" and newer cars "look rough"?
Should I replace my tired suspension with aftermarket or OEM?
Are mild performance cars a good value?
How do we feel about Detroit?
Has the G80 M3 grown on us?
Best T-tops for summer?
Which generation of Audi TT RS is best?
Why we haven't talked about Subaru EVs
Glock watches
Best snow super SUV
And more!
