Volkswagen vs. Competitors: Why Does VW Favor Front-Wheel Drive?
As far as I know, VW switched to FWD for the Golf because they needed a more modern car. The Beetle and other rear-engined cars were based on older technology from the 1930s. Plus, rear-engine layouts were becoming less popular, and VW probably felt the need to keep up with the times. Besides, it’s almost impossible to fit a boxer or flat engine into a car like the Golf. An FWD layout made more sense.

What Makes a 1969 Z28 Camaro So Valuable?
It’s a performance model from Chevrolet, so any units still available are gonna be in high demand. I mean, it’s a limited edition car—like most rare models, the price will go up if demand is high, especially since there aren’t many out there.

Why Did Hummer Stop Making Vehicles?
The Hummer (whichever model you're talking about) is a big, gas-guzzling beast that just doesn’t make sense for most people anymore, especially today. We don't really need huge, flashy SUVs to show off how tough or masculine we are. That era's kind of over, and honestly, it’s not even considered that cool anymore today.

Is the Supercar Market Dying?
People seem to think sports cars are all about speed, and they expect every car — even the most basic ones — to eventually be fast. But what they forget is that sports cars (or supercars) aren’t just built for speed —they’re built to be controlled and stopped at high speeds. That’s why your Corolla doesn’t really count as a sports car.

Why Now? Examining the Tech Behind the E-Scooter Boom
I think the problem is the battery—basically, we've only just gotten to the point where we can make a decent EV battery that works well in scooters. A few years (or even decades) ago, it felt like that was impossible, so most people just saw e-bikes as the only real option. But now, with the whole EV craze, scooters and e-bikes are getting popular again.

Motorcycle Auction Records: What’s the Limit & When Will it Be Broken?
A quick Google search says the current record for the most expensive motorcycle sold at auction is a 1908 Harley that went for $935,000. It’s believed to be one of only 12 “Strap Tank” motorcycles — so named because of the nickel-plated steel bands suspending the fuel tanks from the frame — in the entire world.

The Muscle Car Famine: Why Production is Dwindling
Basically, the answer’s still the same: muscle cars are a niche market, and these days there are plenty of cheaper cars that make almost the same power. We don’t need massive 5–7 liter V8s to hit 500–600 HP anymore — smaller engines can handle it just fine.

High Demand, Low Supply: Why Isn’t Ford Reproducing the Iconic 1960s Mustang?
The main thing is, they don’t have the molds or dies for those old cars. Modern cars are designed and built using molds, and as far as I know, those dies get sold off or repurposed when a model is discontinued. You can’t just ask Ford to make another early 2000s Mustang — let alone one from the 1960s. That’s just not happening.

If Ferrari Goes Bankrupt, Will Car Prices Soar or Crash?
It depends on how Ferrari does in the future—if demand stays high, the price will go up. The thing is, we don’t really know what would happen if Ferrari went bankrupt or what the demand for their cars would look like. But honestly, I think Ferrari would still be Ferrari. It’s a pretty iconic supercar brand, so even if they go under, there’d probably still be strong demand for their cars. In fact, I’d guess the prices would actually go up—once the factory’s gone, you can’t just order a new one anymore.
