A rare case where the price is too high by any reasonable age/mileage/status symbol calculation. I would pay that any day of the week and twice on Sunday for this, though. I admit I haven’t driven a Ferrari, but but you’d be hard to pressed to find a car that drives as well terms of feel, ergonomics and balance as

I’m speechless, but with 36,895 comments, I haven’t always been speechless.  This post is the best prize ever!  Thanks so much, Andrew!

Yep. Some people still want these things, and they’re in short supply, so the price is high.

While I understand the sentiment, that was 30 years ago. When this car came out, I doubt you'd question antique tags on a MY 1960 car, no matter how pedestrian it was.

That’s more my bad examples than anything. Better ones would be the Corvette, or a Shelby Mustang, the “why buy a 911, my Z06 was $50,000 less and is [insert performance metric here]” argument.
My point being that while I’ve never driven a Porsche, the almost universal praise is that they do everything well while still

All bench racing is just a group of people trying to one-up or disparage other people for their own self-worth or otherwise. Do you think a 911 owner cares that a Hellcat makes more power or the Miata gets better mileage, other similar pointless paper comparisons. That’s just the crap us poor folk like to do so we

This is really the only reasonable point I’ve read so far: yeah, it’s twice as expensive as the Tesla (which is a bragging right, not a fault, BTW), but it has a much higher build quality than the Tesla, and literally oozes with style.

The question is whether potential buyers of the Taycan actually give a shit. They may well just buy it because it’s the most expensive EV. As a comparative example, I don’t think that they would care if you had a dig at them because their iPhone 11 Pro had shorter battery life than your Asus Zenfone 6.

That’s not stopping Porsche and Ferrari owners now, so I don’t think it would change that much with EVs.

I guess the only comfort I have is knowing that it met its demise while being driven, not as a museum show piece... 

That is so beautiful that I want to cry.

... and now I’m sad all over again...

Oh, this is going to be fantastic. 

But that’s the point. With the Tesla truck and the other electric pickup offerings (Ford, Rivian) they are being aimed at those who may need to tow higher loads more often, and market their high tow ratings. The point of the article is that while a Tesla truck can tow 14,000 lbs, you’re only going to be able to take

Not factory and not a car, but still...

The Celica TRD hood spoiler was always pretty ugly and weird.

Hot take: Australia V8 Supercars is what NASCAR always should have been.

Totally irrelevant to the specific topic, but while looking for any images of a land speeder with a roof, I found this. Now I want it.

Such a good movie! 

That aerial shot made me think of Robbie the Robot bossin his little taxi cab across the surface of The Forbidden Planet.
