You could have just said don't make this joke.

How do you explain the trend?

Honda S2000. I’m in the market for a roadster. I wanted to check this off my list to confirm it wasn’t that great because I was set on a Porsche. Honda makes lame sensible cars and hatchbacks for the fartcan and stickers crowd. VTEC was something lame and fodder for memes.

How disappointing is the new Miata? Steering was just deal killing. Great post by the way. Could ask what car disappointed you the most?

And here I love you because you can talk awesome $5k cars all day and rub this in our face.

Are you loyal to those because they are the best at what they do or is there something more beyond that. If, say, Audi made a better luxobarge, than the S class, would you consider it? Or is there some mystique or just some X-factor that would keep you loyal to the Benz?

“ALL drivers are safer today than they were 5, 10, 15 years ago.” How is statement reconciled with the data from the article? The fatality rate for Less Than High School rose more than 50%.

I was responding to Raph about the 928.

Too much in what way?

A few thoughts. $142k is with the top motors and every option checked. There will be just fine versions for $80k and more to the point at leases for around $1k/month which is what better end luxury cars go for. Very competitive car in high end SUV segment. Because of the X’s unique capacity it will take sales from…

The Benz will depreciate a lot more and cost more to operate.

Yeah, something. Ridiculous to subsidize expensive. For the Leaf, etc makes more sense.

Not sure. Let’s see what it’s like. He S seats are for kids like 5 years old.

The S has two child seats that can replace the trunk. Not the same thing at all.

The tax breaks should be means tested.

Wow does this car bring out the stupid commentariat. Tesla managed to fit people and cargo capacity of minivan or large SUV into something much smaller. Is it good looking? Compared to what, a Sienna or Yukon. Yes. The driving dynamics will be better than any three row truck bar none because most of the weight is in…

Sounds like you don't know tesla owners.

Glad they did away with the silly nose cone grill thing. It doesn't have an engine and shouldn't pretend. It will take time for some people to adjust.

False choice between turning a profit and selling to rich hippies of whom there are many. But of course that’s not Tesla’s only customers.

Bad looking compared to what. The X6, GLE are all kind of weird. It's just s shape that a lot of people like and the Tesla has loads more storage people moving capacity than any of them.
