I bought my first new car two years ago and I was so excited. Got a red Tesla Model 3 but I’ve been having so many weird incidents with it that I’m not sure if it’s the car or bad luck or what. In the last year, I’ve had:

1. Person throw soccer ball on my windshield while I was waiting at stoplight
2. Hit and run dent on front side of car
3. Someone backed up into side of my car
4. Someone spit on my car while charging
5. Rim come off of someone else’s car and hit mine while driving

(Cont) I know things happen to cars but this feels excessive esp in such a short time frame. Not sure what I’m trying to ask, but is this normal?? Feels bad I can’t even fully enjoy it without worrying about something happening to it 😞

Where do you live?

I mean, some people don't like electric cars or Tesla's, but this just seems like random stuff.

Ive had 2 cars totaled in 3 years and both times I was not at fault so i feel the pain

For some reason, as I’ve seen this week in this bowl, people REALLY hate Teslas. Like these people have TDS: Tesla Derangement Syndrome

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?

I just had a colleague ask me my opinion on a few cars since she’s buying her daughter’s first car. Went through a few brands trying to get a sense of where her mind was, and as soon as I mentioned VW she said “oh, they’re owned by Mercedes and we had bad experiences with Mercedes years ago.”
