If you had a time machine and could send only one modern car back to 1987, what would it be?
Your choice have the potential do impact the whole automotive industry forever.
Pic related. My choice.

Renault Raccoon
3.0l twin-turbo V6 delivering 262 HP
>>17459800
a Tesla to let them know that fossil fuels are finite and alternatives must be researched heavily and immediately
>>17459876
how it is being homossexual?
>>17459876
This
If we send the 80s 30 years of progress then it may make them less shitty in the present
>>17459868
I . . . what?
>>17460020
Renault Racoon prototype, only 1 exists
It was too expensive back then, due to the fancy suspension and electronics
Also its camera-based rear view mirrors would not have been street legal back then. They are now
I gotta warn Toyota.
>>17460102
or any modern toyota really
>>17460102
yes, the 80s need more data on how to make ugly cars
>>17460054
what do you mean by that?
>>17460117
they need to prevent making that abomination
>>17459800
A single 2170 battery cell
>>17459876
>>17460130
these
ICEs should've died a long time ago
>>17459800
fart can civic. it would be a warning.
>>17459800
Show Senna how BTFO he is when the then-new NSX is released.
>rolls up to Senna at a stop-light in a "whats the retail on one of those" scenario
>proceeds to smoke his ass into the next millennium
>tell him i did it whilst getting better gas mileage too for maximum suicide watch
Koenigsegg is the only answer to this question.
>>17459800
the problem is, control theory is so ahead of what is actually being developed,
that R35 chassis would be considered as primitive and boring.
remember this self-balancing Honda motorcycle from few months ago?
controlfags have "solved" this problem over 30 years ago
>>17460048
/this
modern F1 car without fuel flow limit would completely obliterate senna and friends, with sheer downforce
Just because I want to think the future is full of huge convertibles...preferably with V12s
lol if you arent sending a prius or tesla back so we can jump start the next evolution of racing where everyone accelerates at godlike speeds
>>17460314
You send back a Regera and you have the potential of a bunch of cars with no transmissions
>>17461312
>take this back in time
>convince everyone you're from the future without a doubt
>tell companies that ALL cars in the future look like this to varying degrees
>also mention that global warming/climate change is proven a myth
>return to present day on a glorious timeline until wiped out by sooner-than-expected ice age
Worth it
>>17461393
i'd tell them about wind and solar farms, the prevalence of lithium ion batteries, and how cities are full of ridesharing and robust public transportation
but when you get out of the city, EVERYONE drives a big 4-seater electric convertible
>>17461400
Like Holland?
>>17461561
Like Holland, but big four seater convertibles.
>>17461400
Wind and solar are fucking stupid compared to nuclear desu
>>17462937
in theory they're stupid, but realistically they make more sense because no waste.
>>17462942
They have no flywheel. NOT a consistent source of energy. They're stupid.
>>17460072
This is why you go to art school.
>>17462942
Realistically, they are made out of more petroleum than gasoline.
>>17459800
>>17459876
Scientists back then said we'd run out of oil by 1995
The Nissan Juke

> senna pulls up beside you in a NA1 NSX
> "your NSX of the future might be fast, but is it faster than the GTR?"
> senna pulls off
>>17460038
>tfw ywn drive across mars in one of these
>>17464015
It is seriously such a cool car, and they had a working prototype
>>17459803
supreme kek
>>17459800
LS swapped Fiero with a bodykit
Go back to warn Mercedes to NOT merge with chrysler and warn them to fix the head bolts stretching on these.
>>17460048
>not threatening people with the dicknose.
>>17460138
This, or pic related just to fuck with them.
>>17460117
kek
>>17459800
Obviously.
tesla s. but i would take the engineers for a drive first to see reaction
or veneno so the aero dept would look like pic related
>>17464998
I would have to agree. I dislike electric cars because they are kinda meme cars and lithium battery technology hasn't been perfected yet.
Send a tesla back in time and ICEs could literally be a thing of the past.
