Yeah, a well optioned Miata near me is about 28k, whereas even if they tack on 5000 bucks worth of bloat to the US version this thing is only 19k.

“A car person like myself” should probably buy a car purely on it’s maximum range and ignore driving dynamics, power/speed/handling, and emerging technologies.

Yeah. The grid is far more efficient than an ICU engine. FAR FAR more. like nearly triple the thermodynamic efficiency. It’s also far easier to scrub exhaust from a diesel power-plant than it is from an ICU tailpipe. Also places like the PNW get their power entirely from renewables (hydro). This argument is brought up…

If you’re talking about tax incentives used to attract manufacturers, literally ANY large manufacturer gets those from the states they’re in. Also clearly you have no understanding of the corporate tax system.

Uh. Most of his fortune IS in Tesla. It’s not like he has 8 billion dollars in cash. It’s almost all certainly equities in the companies he owns.

0-60: Completely useful in everyday driving, highway on-ramp, highway passing, local road passing, etc...

Uh, tons of people know the Tesla X exists. What other car has gotten this many non-car people talking about a car? None. The public doesn’t care about new lamborghini’s and ferrari’s beyond the “oh look that person is rich!” Also the general public doesn’t know the difference between an M6 and a 3-series. They’re all…

No one is cross shopping a Tesla X or a 911.

Also an R8, RANGE ROVER (Lmao) or 911? No one is cross-shopping those 3 things either.

Normal car doors don’t shield the interior if it’s coming from the angle that the door is opened to either. Also most car doors have the floor wider than the roof, so it’s not like that’s completely shielded.

Uh... no one smart thought that they made an actual hoverboard, and Lexus never presented it like they made one. Literally only dumb people think that Lexus was trying to trick them.

I think the new styling is pretty awesome too. It’s extremely japanese, and I think it makes it stand way out from the competitors.

Your comment will finally make Elon Musk realize he’s not smart.

unlikely, it’s not like this is actually ‘new’ technology. It’s literally made with legos and position sensors.

This is a terrible line of logic because a cop, soldier, or firefighter doesn’t have tens of millions of dollars at 34 nor will they ever.

baited like a true scrub

dealt with.

reading comprehension requires you to actually make a salient point or joke.

You clearly understand the difference between a one-off student car and a full scale production 7 seater sedan right?

Your Jetta TDI goes 0 to 60 in 8.9 seconds.

This is like asking a Mclaren F1 to be able to go 500 miles on a fill-up whilst also asking it to be able to seat 7 people.

Yes, I am correct, thanks for agreeing.
