Did you guys know a Model 3 Performance is only $55k before tax incentives??? I thought these were $80k+, I just assumed the Performance version would be near 6figs. But finding out these are only 55k for 500hp/2.9 0-60, WOW I need to go do a trade in or something. This is actually insane, INSANE, value for money (not to mention 0% financing available?!?!)

Maybe you get got on the other side with resale value or service experience but that is an incredible amount of ass to haul for only $55k

You couldn't pay me to take one. Also feels deeply sacrilegious to try to apply "muscle car" to an EV 😂😂

Something about this HP to dollar ratio is beautifully American muscle car too. Will it be lusted after in 49 years? Probably not. But for $55k in 2024 money you can barely get a fully loaded SUV. And he comes Tesla with a 500hp rocket ship. We actually need to keep this a secret, that’s way too attainable for 90% of that driving skill I see on the road.

If you want hp to dollar ratio, build a used R8 or GTR, or even a 335i. You’ll get WAY higher hp to dollar AND you’ll be seen as an “actual” car guy

Never not me, no EV. I'll stay with gas or hybrid only. Dont want to be into China's pocket even more, the materials (minerals) needed for the batteries only come from that region and how much they have been trying to destroy us from the inside. I'll pass. Has anyone ever thought about the warning labels on our furniture or your kids toys? Next time you buy "Made in China" you may want to throw it out, being the toys they ride around in cause reproductive issues, birth defects and cancer. Years later when your child is having issues carrying a child/or not able to produce, you will remember this post. your cars engine air filters and cabin filters same thing if its Wix brand you should replace it, to filters that do not list proposition 65. Evs are great and all, but there is to much uncertainty of the parts the cars will have.

911 Carrera S vs GTS

I really want to do a low key spec on my next car but it’s almost impossible to spec the GTS without black wheels/accents turning it into a more aggressive looking car.

Thoughts on if the GTS in a 7 speed is more engaging than the S enough to justify the compromise in wheel selection?
