I’ve always thought that if you’re going to pressure the supply side - OEMs -to decrease emissions via CAFE and ZEV state mandates, you should also help increase the demand for lower emission vehicles. Tons of people would rather drive electric than ICE, but the price point isn’t affordable enough yet to make the…

See: Porsche Cayenne and Macan keeping the 911 alive.

The biggest difference between Porsche and Tesla is that Porsche consistently undersells its performance while Tesla oversells.

Bring back the Detroit F1 Grand Prix! Such a cool place to do a race - steeped in automotive history, super wide roads for passing unlike most inner-city street races, right on the water for nice views, more accessible city for fans who aren’t super rich and Senna raced there which is super cool.

What do we want? Low belt lines! When do we want them? Before we hit the curb with our low carbon fiber front splitter!

I bought a 2007 base Cayman for just over $20k a few years ago and it honestly astonishes me to this day how much car you get for that amount of money - even after you throw in the astronomical insurance and maintenance bills. It’s the best car I’ve ever driven that costs less than six figures. Nothing else in the…

Florida in 2005.

Who you blame the loss of bonus income on really depends on your bias though. If you already don’t like unions, you can blame the union workers for striking. If you don’t like big corporations behaving like parasites on the middle class, you can blame the executives for being bad at managing, rewarding and negotiating…

Here’s a crazy idea: they could even put it on some sort of track, or rails, so that it will be more efficient and safer.

People buy SUVs for the same reason why people spend over half a million dollars on cookie cutter McMansions in vanilla suburbs: rich people like comfort and convenience above all else. SUVs, like McMansions, are designed from the inside out - first taking into consideration all the conveniences that the $120k annual…

Comparing the Tesla Model S to the Porsche Taycan seems like comparing a Mustang to a Porsche Cayman.

Personally, I could live with a 150 mile range if the price is right. There are maybe 20 or so days a year where I would drive longer than that non-stop, and for that I would just opt for my gas powered car.

Literally everything. One is a nice car. The other is a full on Luxury Land Yacht SUV that any Billionaire CEO or Oligarch (splitting hairs) would feel at home in. The difference in Luxury between a $31k Palisade and a Navigator is at least as great as the difference between the Navigator and the Rolls Royce Cullinan.

“I’d say women are still treated poorly because there aren’t enough women on the sales floor. Of course, a lot of women aren’t taking dealership jobs because the pay stinks, and there there is often a culture of sexism at the dealerships.”

Clotilde Delbos sounds like a special cleaning solution for industrial washing machines. Fantastic name.

I used to drive that miserable part of the Houston freeway every week. The only time the traffic doesn’t look exactly like that photo is between 1am and 5am.

Neutral: I just hope the air-cooled Porsche bubble bursts before I lose my life savings to something else.

Yeah this is actually a positive in my book. The platform is a proven workhorse platform that balances comfort and handling really well for a sedan. It’s super reliable and can handle a lot of abuse (this is speaking from personal experience).

He might even tweet about how “if it’s true, it would be very troubling.” but then he’ll want to “wait to gather all the facts.”

Telling car enthusiasts to be rational (or even reasonable) with money decisions is a lost cause. I say buy what you want as long as it makes you happy and won’t make you go bankrupt. Also use credit unions, not big banks, for your car loans. They are much less likely to rip you off and they are not a cancer on the…
