    Not all of it was 3D printed. Also, the engine came from a Corvette.

    Haleakalā sunrises probably don’t get much visitors nowadays if you know what I mean.

    Used to watch the sunsets in Key West, Florida from Mallory Square off Duvall Street. It was a thing in the 70s and I hear even more popular today. Probably all closed due to corona virus and bankrupt as Key West is dependent on the tourist trade.

    Not being a morning person, I prefer the sunsets here in Hawaii to the sunrises. Especially when there’s a green flash.

    These just further my belief that people will pay for almost anything!

    I saw the sunset at the Grand Canyon. I had heard about the crowds pushing in and some people falling off the edge. I sat behind a boulder, I rather get crushed than take a fall. I still had a good view.

    Did Backus and son buy the parking spot in Hong Kong for their selfie vehicle?

    Just wait until that 5 year old kid finds out about the Lamborghini.

    Anyone who can afford to 3D print a car can probably afford to buy the real one.

    So, if you get there early and park in the expensive spot do you think you might get towed?

    Went to Maui in ‘06 for my son’s wedding. My daughter and I got picked up before dawn and driven to the top of Haleakala. We watched the sun rise over the caldera. It looked like it was on a sea of clouds. The caldera looked as if it changed colors from minute to minute. Afterwards our group rode bikes down the mountain to the coast. One of my fondest memories.

    One fun thing to do at Haleakala is go with a bike tour company that drives you up before sunrise with bikes and then you leisurely bike back down, mostly using your brakes with very little pedaling, to the nearby town where you left your car. Or you can just drive up before sunrise and then drive back down after.

    “The Center” is also spelled in AMERICAN English (Hong Kong’s English is British).

    My first thought was one of the Batmobiles from the Dark Knight Trilogy. Of course, those were Lamborghinis, just not this model.

    Instead of paying a million dollars for a parking space, why not just take taxis to and from work. It would be a lot cheaper.

    Wow, these examples are almost enough to turn me communist (or maybe Martian). So many people struggling to feed their families, and then this. Humans…
