Then I guess a super no va is when you reach the speed of light and have to stop.
I'd love to be a neutrino, those things don't have to worry about anything stopping them. They can move through any solid object.

Yea, they were cleverly designed for speed, and people do consider them works of art, but for what? "Look what I can do". So the fuck what? If you like speeding and risking your own safety become a NASCAR driver. But public roads are not your personal speedway.
Diamonds are also another impractical overpriced crap based on appeal to vanity. They are plentiful, they do nothing but look pretty. The only do something practical when they are put on drill bits to cut through hard objects.
Now here is where you cry claiming I want a ban on everything I don't like. Nope, just saying your priorities are flawed.
Does your limited thinking not allow you to see the joke? Do you not know that a Nova was a muscle car from the 60's/70's and that picking a different muscle car was humorous? (yeah, maybe bad humor but humor none the less)
Who is the binary now?
And where the fuck did 'diamonds' come from? What's next, the NRA?
Now you did it again, quoted me out of context. Yes I can take a joke and I did already apologize for missing it.
What do sports cars and diamonds and even guns have in common?
When I was a kid, I was super jealous of of the other kids on the block, everyone had BMX bicycles with mag rims which cost far more. My mom got me a cheap Ross with spokes. I look at that now and realize she was right, I had a bike and that is what counted, not the cost, not the looks, I had a bike.
Much of our societies problems are because of the marketing of fear and vanity, in selling anything, even religion. Most people go through life never questioning how or why they do things. The ones who improve life, are the ones who question why and look for better ways. I get that you want that car sure. I get that others want diamonds and even guns. But again, just because you want something and can do something does not make it always practical. Just like I wanted a bicycle and still didn't understand I already had one and it worked just as well as the more expensive bikes.
