And even then, if you need a decent depreciation to make the math work...you are buying too much car.

Honestly, I think the car is underpriced given its pedigree.
Slower than a Toyota Camry
Performance wise, these are amazing. Too bad everything else about them sucks.
Looks like a truck to me. Put that wrap on a Nissan Frontier and it would look the same to me.
Pretty easy. Most everything about Americans is sold in bulk for like a penny a person. Take vehicle registration information and combine it with political affiliation data, and bang.
I’m not even allowed to look at them. My wife is very permissive about the cars I own — at one point, I had six old japanese cars in various states of decay when we had only street parking. Those were okay, but Telsas are an immediate nope.
so they are no longer exclusive.
Funny how people on the right rage against “cancel culture” while embracing it just as much as anyone else.
The charging situation is gonna be basically meaningless to the average user unless they’re on a actual road trip... Superchargers aren’t helpful/needed for the most part...
Whoa whoa whoa, someone posting logic and reason and demonstrating an understanding of how the country works? On Jalopnik?What’s happening to this place?
Yeah he wasn’t suing himself he was suing the city. It’s shady, because there’s the possibility of doing it on purpose, but. I’m kind of surprised it was thrown out.
Considering how successful the Mazda MX-5 was when it launched in 1989, bringing back the small European roadster formula, selling nearly a quarter million units in its first generation, Porsche could have really had a hit on its hands.
Maybe it has less power than the C6 ZR1 or even the C6 Z06, but the performance is nearly as good.
These numbers are strong today, so 15 years ago they were pretty much out of this world.
The engine would have been cool in a Mustang. Of course, everyone would have hated it at the time.
Yeah, agreeing on BS here, this thing was probably still slow. Also, “sports car handling”. Yeah, no. The only way that’s happening with an 80s Ranger is if someone put a Ranger body onto an actual sports car.
Disagree on Bangle, BMW’s mid 00s designs don’t really hold up. I like the E90, but that’s it. The upside down headlights just make the car look dopey.
Domestic power-top convertibles of this era are an automatic “no” for me. They tend to be overly complicated, difficult to work on, and impossible to source parts for. Unless you live in SoCal, it’s unlikely you’re going to find a person who knows how to repair it, you could easily dump $10k into teaching someone to…
Sounds like what other companies (including Ford with ST cars) offer for people who buy their performance cars. I’m guessing GT/Eco owners are going to get an autocross course, while DH buyers get a proper track day.
