The New Car Fanatic Thread

I think the Tesla fanboys probably expected it. But Porsche had always been conservative with their performance figures. No surprise they outperformed again.
I love Tesla - absolutely love it - but I never would expect Tesla to out perform Porsche in an apples to apples comparison (i.e. electric vs electric). I do enjoy some of the Silicon Valley configurations Tesla brings but as soon as I can afford a Taycan I’m on it - and for me that means waiting for a used one. But getting one when it’s obtainable for me is not even a question.

Taycan, I’m drooling   Sorry for all my shit talking on electric cars, so...This is a long shot but if anyone can hop me in line for the Taycan happy to pay 5k+.  Wife finally wants a car I actually love.  I am putting out an APB.  TIA

Did you see the picture of the green one in the November 2019 issue of Panorama? It was stunning.

Wife’s failed experiment with the Range Rover (as expected) is over. Just put her in a GLS63. Have to say, I enjoy driving the hell out of that mommy wagon. It sounds mean as hell. 

It’s almost always going to fail in that and a G Wagon. And, love the 63 motor.

Went to the car show in town yesterday. The new Corvette was there. I think it looks better in person than in pictures. I still don't like the rising button ridge on the center console.

The Lincoln Continental with the suicide doors was there. It's cool.

I am still amazed at how expensive trucks have become. Also, I looked at the new Ranger and the dimensions of that are pretty close to those of my 1994 F-150. Some of the trucks were so damn big. I've had three F-150s and I'm pretty solid as far as they go but the Rams sure looked nice, especially the interiors.

The Genesis G90 is really nice.
