The suicide doors are a nice touch.

Too bad it failed.  Looks interesting to me.

They keep saying EQS is an EV S-class, but it’s just not. Doesn’t look like an S-class, doesn’t ride like an S-class and doesn’t have the same presence as an S-class. Should’ve done what BMW did and made given ICE and EV S-class that looks identical. 

It’s not just the exterior. The dash looks like it’s trying to compensate for something and just ends up looking ridiculous, and the steering wheel looks like it has about 500 buttons on it.

Not good enough. I just saw a year old EQS 580 SUV, loaded, 5k miles, for $60k something.  Why settle for 12% off when you can get 50%+ off a year old model.

They do not look good, I’ll give you that.

Yeah, they do not look good. I considered an EQE briefly when I was replacing my Model 3, but the whole MB EV line leaves me cold. The front end is so smooshed that it ruins the lines of the entire car, which aren’t that great to begin with. I ended up going with an i5, which looks infinitely better. 

I dont even know who its going to win over at all? If you can afford this range in the first place, that 15k is a blip.

The things just do not look good. They aren’t offensive, but when you stand next to a Lucid and a Taycan, why would you choose an EQS? Then you have Tesla which the Model S still looks good, is cheaper, and faster, with a better charging network. EVs have levelled the playing field to where these companies need to be

My wallet tells me it’s going to take more than dropping the price of a $150,000 car to a mere 135 grand to win me over.

Obviously this is wrong, but I was amused!

just surround the guy with the dozen cruisers on scene and be done”

No one knows, and there’s no way to find out.

In the hands of a good operator, those things (and really all heavy equipment) make that money back very quickly.  They’re losing money when they’re just sitting idle.

Heavy equipment is pretty easy to steal....initially. You can get a replacement key from the manufacturer and it’s pretty much the same key for all one model.

Dumbest timeline.

I am 100% certain that nazi, i mean ceo, elon musk does not care and will not do anything about it other than litter other pieces of paradise as well.

law enforcement wants to remind people their cars are clearly marked as law enforcement vehicles.”

I had an old souped up turbo Caravan walk my Fairlane at Wednesday night drags once. That was pretty fun. Damn thing was running high 12s!
