JJ Neufmois I got to hand it to someone who came up this Steampunk-themed camaro. It looks like a neat concept, but...if everything "here" runs on boiling water, shouldn't this camaro be slowing down after a good 50 mph or so? You be the judge sweatdrop gonk ] Actually, if look on youtube, there is an interview with Jay Leno, who owns a Steam-powered car. He said it reaches far past 50 mph easily. You really don't understand how much power there is in steam, do you.

Meh. I'm a Ford person anyways. My dad and I are restoring one of these.  Which would be cool in a steampunk style

Probably, but it's like you said.
It's an interesting concept.
They could have done better art though...

I think it's ugly, but I think most every car made after the mid 60's is ugly so...

Dixie Dellamorto I think it's ugly, but I think most every car made after the mid 60's is ugly so... What about the Morgans and the Weismans? They still retain their 60s glory.

You really don't understand how much power there is in steam, do you. Not quite. I've always thought steam will actually be consumed much faster than fossil fuel, and is good for only the distance a late 1800s car can travel until it's completely "burnt-out."

You get a condenser. It converts the majority of the stream back into water and re-injects in back into the system.

I like it, but it looks a little bit too slick to have the same feel as steampunk.

Maybe it would look even better in a different color...
However I'd still pay a large stack of bills for a car like that.
Awesome.
