Autopia
Autopia is a Disneyland attraction, in which patrons steer specially designed cars through an enclosed track. Versions of Autopia exist at Anaheim, California, Disneyland Paris in Marne-la-Vallée, France, and at Hong Kong Disneyland on Lantau Island, Hong Kong. Other versions of the attraction can be found at the Magic Kingdom as the Tomorrowland Speedway and at Tokyo Disneyland as the Grand Circuit Raceway.
The name Autopia is a portmanteau of the words "automobile utopia." The term was later popularized in academic circles by British architecture critic Reyner Banham to describe Los Angeles in his 1971 book Los Angeles: The Architecture of Four Ecologies.
Disneyland Autopia
The Disneyland Autopia, in one form or another, is one of the few current attractions that opened with the park on July 17, 1955. When it opened, it represented the future of what would become America's multilane limited-access highways, which were still being developed. President Eisenhower had yet to sign the Interstate Highway legislation at the time Disneyland opened.
Autopia (Doctor Who comic)
Autopia is the name of an IDW one-shot comic that based on the British science fiction television series Doctor Who. It is written by John Ostrander and illustrated by Kelly Yates. It was first printed in June 2009 and features the Tenth Doctor and companion Donna Noble.
Synopsis
The Doctor is attempting to land the TARDIS on the planet Autopia, however he has difficulty in passing the barrier that is protecting the planet. After breaking through the barrier, he and Donna decide to take a look.
The planet is perfect and the Doctor starts to wonder about a mission referred to as the Chronos Mission. He explains to Donna that the mission included five sentients who, like them, passed the barrier to invite the Autopians to rejoin the Universe. Inside, they discover robots everywhere. They perform all tasks.
After forcing a robot to take the two of them to its mistress, the Doctor finds that there's nothing to do on the planet as, with the help of the robots, everything is perfect. The Doctor begs to differ, stating that everything is stagnant. He then finds out the five sentients were killed on arrival to the planet. The mistress informs them that all intruders die and that they are no exception.

Feel Too Good
by: UtopiaFeel too good to go to work today
I need a little more time so I can stay this way
Let's go for a ride on the circle line
Couldn't you use a day in the sunshine
Mustn't let your bank payments get behind
The bills may pile up, I just brush them off my mind
I can't let debt collectors bother me
Because I feel too good
I feel so good that you just can't bring me down
I can't remember when I felt so high
My mind is on vacation and I don't know why
Wouldn't you like to go for a country drive
Doesn't it make you feel good to be alive
Luncheon by the roadside will do just fine
I left the water running
It just must have slipped my mind
Can't let the little things bother me
Because I feel too good
I feel so good that you just can't bring me down
Someone's bound to bring you down
There's a strange speaking man on the front lawn
Making rude noises and gestures
It's just the neighbor's got something on his mind
Feel too good
I can't let frenchie start to bother me
Because I feel too good
