alcoholicorn,

I saw a video of the Chinese EV show, honestly the big show stoppers are awful. They all want to be Tesla and are adding a billion points of failure. Even Tesla learned having a door handle that requires 9 sensors is terrible design.

And everything needs a touch screen. If I didn’t know better, I’d say this was a conspiracy to keep car dealerships in business on the service side, since EVs in theory, need less maintenance.

Graphy,

I’ve recently test driven far too many cars before pulling the trigger on my midlife crisis car.

The amount of new cars with shit tablets you won’t be able to easily replace in the future is astounding. You should’ve seen my face when I borrowed my neighbors Tesla and it didn’t even have CarPlay. I was just picturing myself sawing a hole in the dash to fit a double din.

alcoholicorn,

What are you looking for in a midlife crisis car?

Do you like working on your car? Alpha Romeo.

Do you like working on your car and driving it? Old Mazda Miata.

Do you like working on your car, regularly spending 500 dollars on tires, and want to die? Gen 1 Dodge Viper.

Graphy, (edited )

I’ve settled on a 718 cayman but all the dealers I’ve called/met basically put me on a waiting list but said don’t get my hopes up on an allocation. So now I’m just looking for a used GTS that’s not extortion pricing.

I love Miata’s! I used to hang out with a couple guys who did meetups next to where I live at “Tail of the Dragon”
