I see where you are coming from.  

I just got sent back to the greys for calling them out for shitting on tesla... so....

guess what: looks like Autopilot/FSD WAS NOT INVOLVED.

car didn’t have FSD at all and Autopilot was not engaged. granted Source for data is Tesla, but this is not the kind of thing you lie about and get away with.

6.7 is plenty fast, hell that blows the doors off a ‘69 Boss 302 (8.1!) or 429 even (7.1).

my all time favorite car that I have owned had a 16.7 0-60 (Triumph Spitfire). the 3 is a nice car (co-worker has a perf plus with all the bells and whistles) but an Accord EX-L is both bigger and a very nice place to spend time.

by “preserve his legacy” I assume she means “maximize my money”... which, OK, good for her.

just wait till someone plows through a crowd of trump-nuggets.   

I went to their website to see if you could actually purchase one, and yes, you can, if you are willing to wait 11 weeks and only want it in white.

didn’t realize the base model S had increased range that much. thought it was still around 300.

the cosmetic update (assuming it is the top image) is a _lot_ cleaner than the older one.

is it even possible to buy a base model 3?  also how does the Genesis driver assist package compare to (not

the funny thing here is, the gas version would do just fine with that grill.  plenty of airflow to keep the gas engine cool, no need for the gaping maw of horror that is the current ToyoLex design language.

you are forgetting that 95% of BMW M cars are bought by people who are buying them for the status and the stoplight drags vs actually driving the shit out of them on track/twisty back roads.  the most common use of their capabilities is driving like an ass at rush hour on the interstate.

this is similar to people

so clearly you have no recollection of the first gen Audi Coupe/Audi Quattro.

nice looking car. looks like a direct competitor in terms of size, range and features to the Model S.  also shows that the Model S is (stylewise) starting to show its age.

a vanishingly small percentage, sure. and an even smaller percentage of those are capable of actually using even 10% of the actual performance capability.

the vast majority buy them as a means of flaunting their wealth or because their penis stopped working (usually both).

if they were interested in actually driving the

that is really funny. soul. whoo! that is a good one.

they buy supercars because:

not to be all conspiracy theorist and all, but do we know that the people shooting at the NG were not Y’all Queda/meatball militia/false flag/chairborne ranger types?

because there was a lot of that shit the first time MSP went through this.

TR7. actually owned one later and it fully lived up to my fantasies. great handling little car, just enough engine, completely unreliable. would buy another one in a heartbeat.

I can do this on my 2010 honda civic. could have done it with my grandfather’s buick back in the ‘70s.

engage cruise control, hop in the back seat to take a nap, run into a tree at 75mph, die.

the fact that stupid people are stupid should not surprise you. the fact that people will do stupid things to show off should

if you think about it seriously, from a use case perspective electric supercars make a ton of sense.

in general they are driven only very short distances and very low mileage per year, so range anxiety is a non factor.
acceleration can be stupendous.
ultra low CG for great handling.
greater freedom of body shaping

you clearly didn’t notice the key modifier: seem

and yes, he has gotten caught out once or twice, but he _seems_ to benefit a lot more often than other drivers, whether by luck or skill or team.

point is, it is a stupid rule and should be eliminated as it rewards people who fucked up and punishes those who didn’t.

I could give a flying fuck about tesla, but I am sick and tired of the anti tesla bias and this website continually misrepresenting and going on and on about tesla battery fires, when, did you look at that number? 212,500 gasoline car fires in 2020, not one of which was reported, no snarky comments about the other
