I can't believe we're still waiting for an open source car!

The open source washing machine and printer still aren't here either... :(

I think chances are vastly better now with EVs, you probably could reuse the crowdfunded opensource washing machine. Combustion engines are simply way, way too complex. Although I presume the real showstopper is control electronics and regulatory approval for ICEs and EVs alike.
