    On a related note, it’s long been a dream of mine to “download a car” by 3D scanning a nice 1:18 model of something exotic (like a Ferrari 250 Berlinetta Lusso or BMW 507), pay a company to create a full size model by milling it out of a huge block of foam with a huge 5-axis CNC machine, cast fiber glass molds of the body panels, build a spaceframe chassis underneath, fit the rear subframe of a Tesla, and the front axle of a Miata, and live forever in glory.
