Simplify logistics.

Maybe they should get rid of the engine and just stick with electricity.

Is this is what happens when Porsche turns off the emissions cheat code- dirty polluting engine fires?

It would be funny to see everyone stuck inside these at the mall parking lot because they can’t get the door open due to the other SUVs parked next to them.

Typical Ryan Felton hack job article. Rather than sticking to the financial updates (good or bad) in this article, couldn’t resist inserting the digs about elon’s antics (which are dumb) and smear lawsuits.

Suicide doors on a cross-over... very bad idea in the real world of parking lots.

Premium for the very rare functional turn signal option? Only 50 were made with this option.

Will there be any ice to race on 30 years from now?

They also go for $10K more

Suicide Doors- super cool on day one.

Buddy of mine has a similar story meeting RJ in an airport.. Said he was a real down to earth, nice guy with a pretty good perspective on the world.
