I think feeding rats fruit loops would be more expensive than what they pay human drivers.

If the rat can drive me to my destination without veering wildly into other lanes I'm willing to buy a box of Froot Loops to pay for the journey.

Yeah, except Sweden.
It's got to be 3X or more expensive or a lot of the parts, not to mention shipping delays.
And body parts even here in the States... I'd be terrified of smacking them intos a tree. That big ol' girl, especially. What is that, a 500?

I'm not sure I should admit to this, but damned if I don't like that thing more than a stock 1980 Vette. The asking price is straight up idiotic, but I kind of dig the car.

What scares me is it's right in the middle of the era of movies that have been getting pillaged for reboots. It's only a matter of time before it's Highlander's turn.

The rest of the movies suck mainly because the first movie *ended* and didn’t leave the story open for continuation. They had to seriously contrive some poo poo to make the sequels, and they were clearly just money grabs. The series was at least better than the sequels, being set before the first movie, and had a few interesting concepts.
I don’t recall any awesome car poo poo in Highlander, sadly, but it has been a long while since I’ve watched it.

Highlander 2 is yeah, a fuckin mess. But Connerly is worth the watch. 3 is back to the "normal" world of the first film but it still sucks. 4 is the hybrid of the films and show and is notorious for being hacked to bits and the plot makes almost no sense. And then 5 is a total what the gently caress. Adrian Paul is really bitter about that one.

I have fond memories of the TV show, but even as a kid I knew it was dumb for a TV show. More of a cartoon that just happened to be live action and had a sweet theme song.
