  1. Well, I understand the idea of a cheaper base model.. I know you do as well.
  2. I expected their first EV to have an optional battery with 400 miles of range. I thoroughly believed they would be the first to crack that barrier and push Tesla down a notch. The best or nothing..? Nothing.
  3. That was the joke
  4. If I'm being honest, I also expected when the automotive giants(any brand whose been around for 50+ years) put out some EV competition for Tesla, I thought they'd stomp them. I figured they had the money and experience and know-how to just make a better vehicle. Now, that's not to say their build quality won't stomp Tesla's as we've all heard about their sub-standard QC..
  5. There are front shots, you just have to flip through the pictures. This looks much larger than THAT grille.
  6. Congrats! Good to know somebody else here recently turned 60.
  7. I got CLS vibes from it.. but as things ove forward that large coupe-like sedan blends in with "true" sedans anyway.
  8. The profile is absolutely beautiful but that grille is so unbelievably awful. This is outstanding.
  9. It only took 10 years(by the time this power train is actually produced and sold) for somebody to catch up to Tesla.. It looks like concept garbage that nothing on the exterior or interior will make to to production. The only thing news-worthy here is the EV technology.
  10. I get that, I've done that before. I don't/won't understand leaving them on the desk and not throwing them away though...
  11. My desk isn't spotless but I can't let it get cluttered with useless stuff like THE PREVIOUS DAY(S) CALENDAR DATES!
  12. The clutter around that desk gives me anxiety.
  13. That's one of their two available wheel designs.. The second design is available in two sizes, 19" and 20".
  14. At least over at Toyota you can get your Rav4 with off-roady goodness or with a hybrid powertrain.
  15. Now who's the troll...
  16. You don't know why they are in the area. They could be perfectly convenient for them to charge up 45 minutes while eating or shopping.
  17. "Isn't in the spirit" sounds like a way to just be grumpy about it. It's there. It's paid for. There is no reason not to use them, as long as it's still convenient to the user. Once it isn't convenient, I see no point in it. It doesn't really matter when it costs at home. If Tesla didn't package their supercharger network into the price of their cars...I would get it more. It is there to facilitate long distance traveling but all of the ones you see Teslas hoarded around are ones "around town".
  18. You make it sound like they didn't already pay for the service up front... While annoying, I get it. They paid for that. Why pay two times for charging?
  19. I definitely believe it will be put together better.
  20. Even worse.. 10 years newer and it has a smaller battery, less range, and weighs more.
  21. Good point.. The Taycan is a whole 0.3in shorter and 0.1in wider. Maybe they should have sacrificed the 0.3in for more range.
  22. Shouldn't a car 10 years newer be the most advanced tech and not behind the 10 year old car?
  23. That's one hell of a premium but I do agree.
  24. Isn't this also much more expensive than a Model S along with much less range? Those are two pretty big disadvantages of the Taycan.
