Cool marketing gimmick. The suction is cool though, let’s see how it will do on the track. Basically your own Brabham BT46, very cool

Maybe the most useless feature for a car. I'd imagine you need some commercial performance license to actually own this feature.

Also true of being able to go over 90 MPH, despite many sports/premium cars touting an ability to reach a top speed above 150 MPH.

Some cars come with "Donut Mode" or drift modes. Donuts and drifting are definitely not road legal actions. These, and many other capabilities of sports cars, are obviously for track use only. These Roadster gimmicks are no different.

150mph is the "gentleman's agreement" speed. If a car can do 150 chances are it can do 200.

And it begins. I can't wait to hear all the ways people will poo poo this incredible tech tomorrow.
