hey guys check this out:

another eth victory and more than prob will push the price up .

Porsche just announced :

"After developing and testing applications over the past three months, the German automobile manufacturer has introduced blockchain technology into the Porsche Panamera.The Ethereum-based blockchain applications successfully tested so far include locking and unlocking the vehicle using a decentralized app and temporary access authorizations executed through smart contracts."

good article showing big names are starting to run around ethereum which exposes better connectivity with real word than any other crypto.

If there is no Crypto-kitties, ICO or other app in their blockchain, it may be fast. But if the car lost connection, can it still be used? The car should always be connected? It could be a big problem if it needs to be always connected. And does it cost some "gas" to open/close/start/stop the car? Or the coin/gas is free?

i am not sure but it say the application runs on eth blockchain but i don't think it will be using the eth network it self i am guessing it will have independent platform that run with the eth protocol. regearding the connection i am guessing most modern cars got a satellite sginals( expensive cars got a tracker which sends signals ) and with car like Porsche i don't think adding their cars to their satellite profile would be an issue, bare in mind tho you don't need a constant connection as you not valditing or part of the whole block chain you only need to connect when you using the car application which is so far only tested for locking and unlocking and recording driving data which will be sent when ever you have a connection with the blockchain, this is just my guess tho
