This. It wouldn’t be possible to pass on the right if the person in the left lane was following the law/etiquette (depending on the state). 

Looks like the E tron is closer to the X than the 3 to me:

That’s misleading... That chart should be comparing the E-tron to a Model X, not a Model 3.

If there’s no analogous domestic product (like, say, a Porsche 911), consumers will eat the 25% and the value of used cars will go up in kind.

Change “drive” to “rely on”, and I agree.

It was drugs. My first thought was “Why not say you lost it at the casino instead of tell them you spent it on an erotic massage???”

Nobody is spending $8500 on an old rust-free S-10 to drive it in the snow.

True... but I don’t think this particular S10 has sunk to the point of “Mini Truck” status.

Those points would be valid if not for the fact that Europe is getting a new generation of Fiesta and Focus that are both apparently pretty good. Ford’s making newer, better cars... We just can’t have them here.

I also don’t recall the dog getting to ride in a $30M+ Testa Rossa in the book.

Yeah, my first thought was “Shouldn’t that be a feature on Alfas?”

Agreed. As a person with a flatulent brain, I see a lot of myself before my morning coffee in that guy.

It kind of makes you wonder why they didn’t just push it back in the lake to put the fire out.

Weirdly, I always look at a date’s odometer if I happen to get in her car... If her car has 150,000+ miles and is in good shape, I respect both her frugality and mechanical sympathy.  Game recognizes game.

Counterpoint:

It’s an R53 with an auto... It’s going to stop going any places in the near future due to transmission failure.

If they’re operating 24/7, the only places they’ll sit and wait would be where they’re being recharged.

The “better place” the world is turning into:

Seinfeld will get it, and use it to pick up Leno for Comedians In Cars Getting Coffee just to rub it in.
