The Lucid is also way nicer inside (and outside IMO but that’s subjective), it gets dramatically better range, and it’s more aerodynamic. The significance here is that the Plaid’s whole schtick is being really fast in a straight line, and this luxury-focused competitor still managed to be faster.

Crush the trucks on sight, same with coal rollers. 

It is an aspirational vehicle to social media-savvy, southern white women who spend money on lip injections, teeth whitening, and fake tans. I assume she was actually aspiring to the Denali version but couldn’t swing it.

An SUV is the absolute last kind of vehicle I would ever want ceramic brakes on

I don’t understand how anyone is supposed to be able to tell McLarens apart. Besides the super wild ones like the Senna and Speedtail, they all look basically identical and use the same engine/tub/mechanicals as far as I know. You could tell me this one was a 570, a 650, or any other reasonable-sounding number and I…

Counterpoint - this is how you know it was owned by a certified Real Corvette Guy boomer who washed it every week and never drove it like a hooligan.

This is probably the nicest 80-series I have seen for sale in quite a while. Miles are irrelevant at this stage. $16k seems like a lot for what it is, but people pay a lot more than that for rattier cars with less of an enthusiast following. NP.

Automakers pivot towards making cars people don’t want to buy, then are surprised when people are not buying their cars. Surprised pikachu face

Looks like he’s going for an 80s David Hasselhoff kind of vibe

This will certainly weigh enough to qualify as a commercial vehicle in CA (where all of these will inevitably be sold), and I’m sure the tax benefits are significantly higher because it’s an EV. There are less interesting ways to do a tax writeoff I suppose.

This is an inbred mopar owner take if I’ve ever seen one. Wait until you find out what it costs for a 250 GTO, which also has less horsepower than a Camry.

Surprisingly enough, this is about what it costs for a clean NSX-R. 

Because these are the same year as the Quattroporte with more miles on it. I wanted to see which was worth more, and it appears a Camry with higher miles is worth more than the Maserati from the same year, which is hilarious.

I had to check what it costs for a Camry from the same year as this with more miles, and holy cow is this hilarious

I am floored that this is being sold as a new car - if you told me it was a 2014 model I would’ve believed you. Every last piece of the interior looks dated.

In 1987 they introduced the 924S to have a budget model back in the lineup, and it was about $20k MSRP or $55k today. That would basically be the equivalent of them bringing back a 987 Cayman and putting a detuned, base model Macan 4cyl in it for $55k today - dated platform with dated options and an undesirable…

Counterpoint: The NA Miata would’ve made this obsolete once people realized it was almost certainly a better drivers’ car. The MR2 had more cohesive styling, good performance, and was already out on the market for less. This would have been a very odd choice for Porsche to pursue at the time.

Oddly enough, those are actually coming into a second life as track cars. The suspension was pretty sophisticated, they came with a good engine with lots of tuning potential, and you can get them down to like 2400# when gutted. There is a red and white one that has been mobbing the wheel-to-wheel series with Gridlife…

I really love the TSX wagons, but those are collector/enthusiast-tier now and prices reflect it. I test drove one many years ago as a potential replacement for an RSX-S and found that it was not really much nicer on the inside and drove similar to the RSX but overall worse. I think they are supremely cool for what…

The chrome boomer wheels are the only misstep here - everything else looks great.
