Most Uber drivers in my neck of the woods are black Aficans or other first- generation Americans

Go and drive the ATS... yeah, the interior is not on par with the M3, but the chassis, steering, suspension is better.

LOL, good effort squirt. Junior high let out early on Friday?

Considering they’ll probably sell 10 of them in the US, it wouldn’t make much sense to offer two transmissions.

You want an uber-fast, TTV6 sedan with a manual transmission? Cadillac will sell you one.

I agree. The commentators on here keep talking about muddy paths, heavy snow, dense inner city congestion and so on. Honestly, how much of anyone’s driving is in conditions like that? Sure, it may snow heavily one day, but it’s usually cleared off the next. And who is driving on muddy goat paths every day? I guess…

*speaking as a SW Engineer*

I don’t want an economy car. I don’t want something that isn’t fun to drive. I don’t want something that’s unattractive to look at.

I’ll put down $1,000 for a Tesla Model 3 I haven’t seen the final version of and wait two years over that.

Even if it’s owned by the factory, the dealership at the local level has employees, real estate, equipment, insurance,taxes, all the things that go with a physical presence. The profit to the independent owner will either accrue to the factory or be passed on to the consumer.   

LOL okay dude.

This guy is my spirit road animal.

Yeah! Fuck regulations on vehicles. Let’s allow semi-trucks pull 200,000 lb of freight. Let’s allow cars to have 1200 lumen flashlights as headlights. Catalytic converters? Fuck that noise. Emissions requirements? Don’t tell me I can’t pollute the air with whatever quantity of poison I want!

I get asked all the time, “what are you gonna do to it?”

Cold enough for snow, good enough to go?

“what the fuck are you talking about?”

Maybe you should be responsible journalists and not repeat Tesla ad-copy since they haven’t earned that level of trust?

Guess you missed the whole “budget” thing, huh?

I always get a kick out of people who try to say a current car is reliable by talking up their 30+ year old model and its reliability. Other than the fact that its been two different owners since then, manufacturing and technology has changed so much that reliability figures from back then have no effect on today.

I’d be more worried about one of these outside my tent...
