Is cancelling the same or different than not accepting.  If they cancel after accepting then they probably should be punished somehow. If they just don’t accept and are punished that is a problem, IMO.

What about CNG? I already have natural gas to my house, while the devices to fill cars aren’t cheap they do exist.  My city powers all of its trucks and buses with CNG. Seems like a decent alternative that doesn’t get much attention.

How do they sell cars now? Can’t you make basically the same argument about the rest of their lineup when compared to other cars in their class?

In context I think they were actually pretty decent, unfortunately, most cars from that era are complete shit.

Seemed like half the people in HS had an Escort or a Plymouth Horizon.  Those cars rattled so much just from the engine vibrations. I remember sitting at stoplights expecting the car to come apart around us because the engine moved so much.  Good times.

So much torque steer on such a mildly powered car.  Decently entertaining though, as long as you don’t want to go straight.

It’s fast and says Porsche on it.  They’ll sell as many as they can make. 

Interest is all we have to go off of right now but there has been enough that they are already planning on building more. Friend of mine put down a decent chunk of money on one awhile back and can’t even get an appointment to spec it because they don’t expect to be able to build it for another year or so because of…

From Electrek:

Because it doesn’t matter. Everyone wants to make this a Porsche vs Tesla thing but it’s about like comparing a 911 to a Corvette.  Sure, they both do similar things but they aren’t really the same. 

The range will last a typical Porsche owner over a week. It’s not a Leaf.

The most important metric for a Taycan buyer is range?  Do you hear 911 owners complain about MPG? I think you’re missing the point.

Love it when they state the car is very reliable but there is a long list of new items.

No, IIRC the 2.5 was was 2006+

The 9-2x was a great deal. Bought one of the last ‘05 Aero’s (cold and premium packages) for $21500. Had to call about 10 different Saab dealers to get that deal but finally found one is St Louis. My local dealer is KC wouldn’t go under $23500.

Had a 5 speed Camry wagon but it was a 4 cyl. Great car but the engine blew before 200k miles. Surprising. Don’t think it’s quite a unicorn but my Volvo 765 turbo wagon with a 5 spd is rare.  And a lot more fun.

Is there a point to the new format? Seems backward now, for no real reason.

Nice, still looking for a ‘96 Park Ave Ultra. Probably still sitting in a retiree’s garage but I will find it.

I see more 90's Buicks than probably any other kind of car. I would guess that the people that originally bought them drove them less than the Accords, Civics and Camrys which have all been driven into the ground and rusted away

I made my parents rent The Road Warrior on laser disc at least 20 times.
