I don't know which is more surprising: that they can calculate inflation since 1968 with such astonishing precision (median income was $32,844) or that buying a car from a defunct automaker (Pontiac) is an act of patriotism.

Also, for those of us who think in terms of horsepower, 1200 watts is about 1.6 hp. A blender might be a more useful kitchen appliance comparison than a toaster to grasp the amount of mechanical power that this car produces.

I wonder if the 90° orientation really does make people feel more secure as the narrator claimed. Did they conduct some kind of research or just declare it to be so? Personally, I'd think it would make me more aware that I'm being watched b
