here are my 2 cents on this;
What we have here is a very proud roadster owner who may or may not be
informed and knowledgeable about his car.
He had the good fortune to collide with a very uninformed reporter.
intentionally or not, a little bullshit occurred.
those in the know, we see through the inconsistencys, to the layman it
is an article that is favorable to the roadster. I bet at least one
person that read that said "I gotta get one of those"!
everyone wins!
