EV's & Tundra's

Solid choice. If sex appeal was a car...




More than I could ever afford (and it's not even the 911), but I do love the way they look.

 

GT4 RS is very rich for my blood - but 981 GT4’s are more manageable

 

The biggest lesson learned from my EV experience was either:

a) buy used
b) lease with the right deal

Don’t do what I did. I got ****ed

 

Market is completely different today than 2021. I bought before Elon dropped new prices and before the EV market in general declined rapidly.

With dealer inventory stockpiled, incentives, lower pricing, now is a more compelling time to buy (except rates suck, obviously).

Overall, I think we all learned that the market views EV’s as appliances and they don’t follow a normal depreciation schedule.

 

Drive it - don’t save it for the next owner!

 

Say whatever you want about EV’s, but you can’t deny the performance. They boogie!

Mine performed flawlessly in the snowy winters of MN!

 

Definitely different from years back. My 7 seat LR MY was $39k with 0% interest back in October.

 

Did someone say "depreciation"?

are we not still following "fight club" rules as it come to that word?



after all is said...Tesla EV's are the most damn awesome (affordable) accelerating cars on the planet.

If that damn MSp was just a wee bit higher off the ground, we'd still have it.

that being said the MXp is just as nasty.



AND...the 911 Turbo is awesome, and looks great in the rear view mirror of the MSp.

 

^^^^ love the wheels!!! And the sound! HA!!!

 

predictions?

how will this perform against a:
M3P?
MSP?


will it be under $200k?

 

The new Roadster should be the fastest street legal car on earth.
Thoughts on pricing?
My wild guess- $179,900

1. is this available in the USA?
2. it <shockingly>looks just like a MS.
3. let's get one stateside & get it over to Dragtimes to see if the bull shits in the buckwheat.
4. Look at those specs...We live in amazing times.
5. $72k...doubt it will cost anywhere near that north of the Gulf of America.
6. has it passed NHTSA safety tests yet? the MS scored VERY high.

 

I was going to say it looks a mix of a McLaren, MS, and Porsche.

 

So people liked to call out about the threat the CT is to pedestrians yet this thing is over a ton heavier and just as much of a front end.

 

I appreciate what EVs can do, what they offer and so on... They're just not for me. I have had brutally fast cars, one of which RS7 which was AWD and was blistering off the line, but not as fast as many Tesla's... I quickly became bored. It just, went. There was no drama, no driving skill involved and the fun wore off quickly. After driving a friends plaid, it was cool and fast, but the thrill is similar to rollercoaster and I wouldn't want that everyday.
