I agree. That blog entry is better than the others. They need to go more in depth into the features, manufacturing setup and status. Hopefully Rides or some other show will do a documentary sometime soon like was done on the Shelby Cobra Concept.

"parking vehicles at local fireworks displays..."

I can see it now, a group of guys standing with their backs to the fireworks, staring at the car to see if the alarm goes off.

kid: Mommy, why are those men not looking at the pretty fireworks?

Mom: Honey, don't look, they're engineers.

Nah, they just hired:

a - Camaro/Trans AM owners
b - Stanget posters
c - Foxbody 5-0 owners that think their cars are the end all of mustangs
d - people who can't afford the new car
e - people in denial who thought it was ugly then realized 2 years after hopping on the wagon, that its the best thing since the invention of fake knockers

I wonder if they were wearing labcoats...crouching behind some bushes, looking at the car with binoculars and typing on laptops, cuz that would just rock

I am actually very interested in automotive engineering (graduated from high school last year). If any of you are or know a lot about it I'd be interested to know what exactly you do besides "engineer cars" and also if you would recommend a real good college for going into automotive engineering.

Well, I studied Civil and Environmental in College. But my Step Dad owned a Mechanical Company. So I have learned both (actually all three). But right now I am in the construction side of engineering and complain about how someone who sits in an office and does not see the physical product can design things.

But I still do the Geek Speak with my fellow engineer graduates (and the new ones I have met since).
