I also have to admit that I’m not far from being a guy showing a car in a bass pro parking lot. I’ve got the cargo shorts, I’ve got the grey beard, I’ve got the long-winded ability to hyperfocus on minute details. Only think holding me back is my back account indicates collecting Nissan Versas instead of even C4s.

There’s no case where 50% depreciation in a year is a good thing.

Yes, but the economics of charging stations are pretty bad. I would say, yes, they burned a bunch of money to build out charging stations. Anyone else is free to burn money to do so...but they don’t...as it’s basically building a machine that turns dollars into dimes.

Nabbed the best locations? I’ve never seen a Tesla charging station, but my local Target has chargers. That seems like a good location. Google shows 3 other charging stations closer than Tesla, and the Tesla location is off the beaten path.

Are you asking why a perpetual energy machine doesn’t exist?

Porsche worrying about being too expensive? O tempora, O mores.

There’s no such thing as a free lunch.

14,000 mile Polestar2 at $26K has entered the chat.

I’m in agreement, I would the Z06 as well.

Musk just has to make another ridiculous promise and it’ll bounce right back.

I think I’d just have a ZO6, save all the extra money and use it for tires and track days. Enjoy the better sound and response.

Is anyone surprised that so few of the reservations turned into actual orders? Not only the price of the Cybertruck was not what was promised, but the whole “exoskeleton” design (that was supposed to be the Cybertruck’s main innovation and give it superior range via weight savings) never materialized, instead the…

So yes, the Dodge Challenger Demon 170 is still officially the quicker car in the quarter mile, but since it required a prepped surface to break into the eights, there’s no telling just how big a difference you would see in the real world.

Judging by how good these things seem to be handling their first winter, I’m not sure Canada is going to be too welcoming.

Any bets on what date the US government will suddenly require thousands of stainless steel-bodied electric vehicle for official duties?

Imagine what it would do on a prepped surface.

I thought it was for parking outside a  Bass Pro Shop on a Saturday in the Summer and bragging about while wearing cargo shorts.

Those 296 numbers are on a prepped drag strip. It will be interesting to see if the ZR-1 goes faster there. I wonder how much the electric motor helps the Ferrari off the line.

Per R&T:

The ZR1 is for anyone with the money to buy it.
