Sorry if this is in the wrong place. Just thought it would be cool to share with you guys!
Yeah, it's not real, but it's something my brother made as a joke, but I kind of like it.
Also the interiors were really futuristic and awesome and I loved the steering wheel
There's part of me that makes it hard not to fall in love with these.
I've also always been a fan of the digital dashes

Exactly what it says.
Midnight in a Perfect World on Amazon or order anywhere. The first book in a quartet chronicling the rise of a man from angry criminal to philanthropist. Midnight... is a distopic noirish novel featuring 'Duchess', a modified 1990 Subaru Legacy wagon.

I was actually wondering that too. I guess at 87mph it cuts off the fuel, just in case.

The ones I've seen are just an audible alarm when you excede a set speed.

That's pretty cool. I want one. And you could set it for like 12mph so it'd go off all the time

it was a long long time ago when the car wasn't old, it was practically new, and was still a car and not a crushed cube somewhere lol

Man. Looks like it was a pretty fun car and I loved the interior. Shame that that's probably the fate of most of them these days.

I had an 88 XT, 5spd, pushbutton 4WD, but nonturbo... 97hp of fury. I still miss that car to this day.
