You know how classic cars are still great as long as they've

well, as manufacturing gets more complex, so does your toolbox.
electronics themselves actually tend to last a while, what gives out is specific components on boards or certain bad soldering, both of which are easy to fix IF you can identify the problem.

>>17056037
If fixing it is not your hobby maintaining a classic car will be expensive anyway assuming you're driving it.
It's not all profits.

This. Not to mention most of it can be overridden with standalone ECUs, etc.

The only reason classic cars "gain" value now is because boomers are willing to pay outrageous sums for them since they thrashed all the cheap used ones decades ago while growing up

Similarly, an unrusted EK Si Coupe will probably show up at barret jackson for $90k in 30 years

this might be the way to go in the future but everybody has heavily proprietary code running things so reverse engineering will be...difficult..

by the time replacing busted chips or bad capacitors stops working though, we might be into an era where extremely heavy computation can essentially reverse engineer said code, or printing components.

it will be impossible really

All the /o/tists will be riding around in grandfather clause carbureted boomermobiles.

Electronics are pretty easy to fix. People make them out as magic black boxes, but they really aren't.

He was talking about how classic cars (like the Porsche) don't have those issues

The future for "new" classic cars is bleak.

However this is a picture of a Singer Porsche. Literally every piece has been redone or replaced, nothing truly classic about it except for the frame and body panels. That being said its a damn sexy car and Singer makes gorgeuos porsches.

Better get em soon before you won't be able to get them at all.

>tfw in 20 years there will be a late model fully unlocked black box that just plugs right where an ECU does for any make/model that requires and ECU

>>17056037
nah bro

in the future you will be buying my custom made hand-built hypercars.

with 5 liter supercharged turbocharged diesel engines. carbureted.

Reverse engineering isn't really needed with an aftermarket computer, just make it have the same pinout and send the same signals and you're done.

god damnit stop posting like a fucking redditor or fuck off, nobody will miss you pseudo expert.

This. Assuming we still have a country with an economy in twenty years, I can't wait to get all nostalgic watching all the original 80s-00s cars run through at Barrettblark-Jacksontron 2037
