They can imitate shifting, allow for manual ‘shifts’ and a lumpy V8 or a screaming V12 if they wanted to. And before anyone says that’s fake, so is sim racing, but sim racing is awesome and better than an Atari.
Well, Dodge is doing just that

Re '12kw/h' short answer: yes, that's probably how it is meant (by the providers of charging points?) or how you could understand it. But the units are not correct. It should be, for example, 10 USD/h@12kW (and something less than 5 USD/hr when charging at 6kW).
HTH.

ETA: The unit kW, kilowatt, has the 'per unit of time' already incorporated into it, as 1 Watt equals 1 Joule per second. 1 joule is an amount of energy (like 1 calorie is).
In that sense it's similar to 'knot' to express speed. 1 knot equals one nautical mile per hour. Just like you wouldn't speak of 1 knot/h to express speed, kW/h isn't correct to express a charging rate (or charging speed). Only kW is.
Thanks! It finally makes sense to me.

Default 2006 911 S ? Intermix/ Should I sell or keep ?

I am the original owner of a 997/2006 911 S (6 speed manual /black exterior black interior /black piano wood/graphite trim in headlights/ suede headliner/ with about 61k miles.) The car looks to have had an intermix about 4 years ago when I had a new clutch done and has not been driven since.
Looking for thoughts and advice on if I should sell as is or keep the car.
Thank you for your thought sand advice in advance.

If you had intermix and never cleared/flushed the lines out, this could get real expensive.

But I digress....
Not to mention the life of the battery and the cost ($26K) to replace them.
