FACT OF THE DAY: CAR LOOKS

It is a common misinterpretation that if a 'car looks like it will be fast, it is fast'. That isn't true unless there were changes to the cars engine, suspension, tires, brakes, or transmission. An example of this is the golf cart size Scion iQ pictured above. With a help of a British-Columbia based automotive tuner SR, the Scion iQ looks that it could hit 200 mph on the Autobahn. Well, it doesn't. There were no changes whatsoever to the engine, or any other parts at all except for the interior, making it still slow.
