Clearly, we live in different neighborhoods. This is what it looked like out my back window this morning. Yesterday was none.

These cars are going to be a real shot in the arm to the US automotive scene. I can't wait to see (and hear) them screaming around town and the local autocross.

ya, i see these test cars all the time on this road. They like going up to Mt Charleston and stop at the paiute reservation gas station. So far the cars i saw testing were Dodge Dart, some Fiat van, new Grand Cherokee, and the SRT Viper and some unknown car covered in black cloth that at the time I thought was the mustang but idk since these are all fiat products.

This car is bigger than I thought it would be. thought they were like Lotus Elise in size but they are more BRZ or Cayman sized.

Usually when I see a car they are out within a couple of months. Is this coming that soon?

I've seen 'em a lot in Colorado, too. This past summer I saw a half dozen Focus electric vehicles going through the mountains. And a number of Mercedes with camo paint schemes.

I never saw anything like this until I moved out here, lol. But i'm from Chicago which has pretty standard weather i guess.

I lived in Chicago for four winters. If that is "standard" weather, then I'm sure glad to be away from the mean!

I think there is a lot of testing in Colorado, in particular, because of the high altitude, elevation changes, handling and braking stresses, rather than the weather. I know Arizona is also a hotbed (see what I did there?) for testing in the summer for hot weather testing.

Too expensive for me or $60,000

I had the interior cleaned because it smelled really badly like sweat. I run as a habit from when I was in the military but I drive the car to where I run and have to take a shower at home and it smelled like that. Run in my neighborhood now, when someone enters your car and says "it smells like sweat" and you didn't run in 3 days your doing it wrong.
