The tall, narrow grill and slant nose are 2002 design cues.

2005 coupe, j30a4 with some tl type s goodies... Got her up to 160 surprisingly quick on I-10 driving back to Tucson from Sacramento on a nice open stretch, impressively stable at that speed, total sleeper that car was.

Well son of a bitch Mazda, didn’t know about that one, sneaky bastards.  

That’s what plastic seat covers are for, be like driving in granny’s living room.

The G is a through and through truck, no questions there... But the Cayenne? Definitely not an old road vehicle, Porsche designed it to kick ass on road, sure it has a little off road capability but where it truly shines on the tarmac, more of a car than a truck.

Used to have a v6 6mt Accord with a few bolts ons, stock wheels and muffler for stealth though... Surprised quite a few 350zs and Mustang in its day, everyone who rode in it had something to say about how they never expected it to be that quick.

I hate how these features are advertised (Kia I’m looking at you), like it’s ok to not pay attention to the road, because your car will (probably) save your ass. I’ve never rear ended anyone because I keep a safe following distance, stay off my phone, and am constantly scanning ahead for any signs of danger. Maybe…

Old bimmers aren’t nearly as unreliable though, Mercedes on the other hand are a much different animal, disintegrating wiring harnesses being the least of your problems.

But goddamn did all that craziness pay off... Looks like it just rolled outta the showroom. Probably the cleanest interior of anything I’ve seen on NPOCP, you wouldn’t pop the hood at a car show with this thing you’d pop the doors, lol.

Didn’t really feel like writing a thesis on your entire comment... But you should know that out of the 17 percent of released prisoners that re-engaged, 90 percent where freed under George W Bush Jr, before Obama took office. You would know this if you actually did your research instead of regurgitating conservative…

You realize that Obama pardoning Wendell Callahan was fake news right? The side that’s always accusing the left of “fake news” are the ones pumping it out like water. So sad. You remind me of my friends father, spends hours a day watching Fox news and reading fake news stories on his face book feed, unfortunately…

Most cars are slightly detuned from the factory to increase reliability, emissions compliance, and gas mileage... Not so the manufacturer can charge you extra for features the car is already capable of.

I agree... While truckbro is definitely a dick, I would never leave my car at some random location for a week. If I have a breakdown she’s getting towed back to my house within an hour and parts are being ordered not long after that. Something is definitely up with this story.

I think he’s let his own head get the best of him... I feel like he’s the Kayne West of the tech industry. Even though I’m an ICE fan I really have no issue with the proliferation of electric vehicles, but Musk and his nickel and diming, overvalueing of Tesla and spaceX to dupe investors, and bold claims regarding…

Didn’t they release the full range and reduced range at the same time though? I could kind of understand them charging more for the extended range if they developed the software after the fact but it doesn’t seem like they did. And even then every piece of technology I own allows you to upgrade for free, even the…

“Seeing all of those together reminds me how incredibly ugly porsches are.”

Only weasel here is you... Is your life so meaningless and devoid of purpose that the only satisfaction you get is acting like a big man on the internet?

You’re correct, it does happen sometimes... But you’re not going to see a 4 grand difference between two chipsets with identical hardware. Honestly I just don’t see the reason why everything tesla does is defended by their fans. I’m a BMW guy, and would be the first one to bitch about their penny pinching cost saving…

Actually had to look that up, bmw does some weird things sometimes... Although I did notice that the cam profiles and radiator size were different, as well as the detuned 800 not requiring premium fuel, with riders saying the detuned version was a more civilized ride than the higher spec. Whilst the tesla battery pack…

They recoup the cost by selling the car... That’s be like if Mercedes sold a car that cut the fuel pump off even though you have a quarter tank left and made you pay 4 grand to unlock the ”extended mileage” feature.
