    I have real carbon fiber ones on mine. No sayings or anything. Looks cool, and c'mon, F1 carbon fiber on a 100hp hybrid? It's just too funny!

    That’s true. I, too, used to take issue with this line until I learned that what Han Solo is referring to is that the Millenium Falcon was able to navigate a very difficult trading route lined with obstacles (The Kessel Run), shaving distance off the route by using clever navigation techniques, rather than just pure speed. So, in this case, “parsec” is appropriate.

    Thanks! That always bugged me, too. It's somehow encouraging to find out that he really did mean distance. But the context is speed. ("It's the ship that made the Kessel Run in less than twelve parsecs. I've outrun Imperial starships. Not the local bulk cruisers mind you, I'm talking about the big Corellian ships now. She's fast enough for you old man. What's the cargo?") So it still doesn't completely feel right to me.

    Of course it doesn't feel right. It is a story fabricated later to cover the initial mistake.

    I'm inclined to agree.

    You're right, especially where I live. Sadly, it's all too true. Lot of ID10Ts.

    Maybe

    would be less obvious?

    What's bad is when your own car's mpg is higher than your own IQ. ..... And you're driving a Bugatti Chiron (11 mpg).
    But then again, there's the "wow" factor with that car. (0 to 400 kph and back to 0 in under 42 seconds).
