So… we’ve got some Modernism, Post-future Triangularism and some Wooden Curvaceousism and some Holy Craparoonie Funkatecturalism! Wow, that’s a lots of isms for today’s FUTURETECHTURE…

Just because I can… doesn’t mean I should. Unless… they’re cool, to which I have no choice but to create complete RANDOMNESS…

EV’s are @ 100K units. So awesome…, but the Blue Spark is the best inner city car ever!

Originally from Carscoop…

Chevrolet today announced that the new 2014 Spark EV 1LT is available for low mileage lease (12,000 miles/19,300 km) for as low as $199 per month for 36 months, with $999 due at lease signing including security deposit (tax, title, license dealer fees extra).

• Universal is setting up a new remake of Jean-Claude Van Damme’s TIMECOP. Maybe they should get Stallone, Schwarzenegger, Dwayne Johnson, Paul Walker and Vin… wait… isn’t that already happening somewhere?

• Evan Peters (American Horror Story) will be the mutant Quicksilver in The AVENGERS 2 along with his sister, Scarlet Witch. If you don’t know who they are, I suggest a trip to ComicCon… But, you’ll need a costume first.

• POLTERGEIST sequel is coming from MGM directed by Gil Kenan and written by David Lindsay-Abaire. Although there were already 2 sequels… this one will be Poltergeist 1.5, I guess?

This is Ethan. Recently, his Mom (Cheryl) came to see me at an event to snag a copy of the Wacky Rides. So glad to see that smile from back East! BIG THANKS, Cheryl!!

If you’ve wrangled a copy too, take a pict of your child holding it and shoot it to me 2 askfireball@fireballtim.com! He’ll be the next SQUIRT posted!

Input for the new show online has been tremendous. BIG THANKS to Architect James, Tweeters and DesignYouTrust for re-posting. Please SHARE last Monday’s episode on Twitter and FB (or wherever!) so we can spread Kar Koolness to Kids! Next up… ALASKA!!

Italy’s Moretti Motor Company was founded in 1925 and lasted until the mid-1980s.

This Moretti EGS Concept here was re-designed by Brian Males, a Slovakian Automotive and Transport design student at Coventry University. Funkadelic…

Males explains…

“In no field more than in the design of automobiles is the Italian genius for sensual pleasure better manifested.”

“In my research I learned that emotional reactions which are processed on visceral level, have a much more impact on choice, rather than cognitions; that the portion of humanity within our cars or as Chris Bangle says, Avatars, has a tremendous impact, and not only in the human-machine interface design but also in the aesthetics.”

“We can’t probably avoid a robotization of the transport, but in terms of aesthetics we can maintain the portion of humanity within our cars.”

“In the era of transition between petrol and electric age we need to look for the factors which could ease this process. A Human factor, probably. Imperfectness? Nostalgia ? Sexuality?”

Interesting thing about cars and how diverse they are. In subtle and in major ways, like people. You can take several coupes and see minor differences, but those can make all the difference.

The thing about HONDA is that what they make is secure. They aren’t racy out of the box or exaggerated, nor are they disjointed or half-built. The way to really tell cars apart is by driving them so close together as I get a chance to. And when you throw them into the mix like that, you begin to see the subtle differences.

The 2013 HONDA EX-L COUPE is a solid car. But more than solid, it’s secure. A tool that brings Peace of Mind. Now, not everyone is actively seeking peace of mind, although you’d think that’d be the number one goal for everyone. But, to want peace of mind, you actually have to believe you can attain it. If your thoughts are all over the place and you don’t wrangle them in, then POM can be hard to attain. But a Honda helps.

This lil’ Modern Steel Metallic version came to me for a week and throughout that week, I got a lot done. And how did the Honda help? By giving me peace of mind that I didn’t need to worry about how it functioned. Its 278hp 24 valve VTEC motor was smooth and easy, it’s leather seats were comfortable (although actual leather is now being poo-pooh’d), its overwhelming list of extras and features made it deliver on virtually every scale. And at just over $32K, it’s affordable. Fuel economy could be (and will be) a bit better as always, but the 18/28MPG rating allowed for this to be classed as performance. So it moves.

I’m an extreme guy. This wouldn’t be my car, honestly. But it would be a car for my son to which would bring me tremendous peace of mind even more than me driving it. And,… I wouldn’t probably have to buy him another car… EVER. If that’s the only peace I ever got… it’d be worth it.

Check out Honda’s site to see how you can put one together for fun. Nothing fancy, just straight forward peace of mind.
