    Bentley GT vs Taycan

    Continental is on the Pamamera platform, previous generation was a VW Phaeton. The Bentley EV will probably be on the PPE platform. Cars are becoming just different skin and badges. Even the Rolls Royce Spectre is just an i7 with different skin The Taycans J1 platform is its own beast. A...

    The lease deals in the US for the EQS are give aways right now. Tons of incentives from MB

    BMW i7

    I ended up driving the i7 and really enjoyed the experience. I liked it better than the EQS

    Taycan vs Telsa M3P thoughts?

    I drove the EQE AMG and I was pleasantly surprised on the speed and handling. There are a lot of incentives right now too. It's smaller and closer in size to the Model 3.

    If true… "The coming EV batteries will sweep away fossil fuel transport, with or without net zero"

    What revolutionary materials or technology are used to create such weight savings?

    Interesting info on the potential Audi RS6 EV

    This will be on the PPE platform. Same as the Macan EV The beauty of the J1 is it's purpose built. PPE will be for SUVs and everything in between.

    Spent some time w/ Lucid Air this morning… impressions

    Congratulations. On reselling your car, I would use caution. The Air Grand Touring is is wholesaling for around $105k now. They are not liquid cars in the used market

    Tesla likes to snake peoples money the same way. I would dispute with my Credit card company to put the burden back on Lucid to prove they tried to give you your money back. Just have proof you asked for a refund multiple times. I got my refund back in 24 hours so they are capable

    You're very right about the engineering and design Their marketing and target audience seems to be exclusively based on their engineering prowess

    Spent some time w/ Lucid Air this morning… impressions

    The highest volume Mercedes dealer in the US, in the EV Meca of orange county had 3 of them collecting dust, no interest. More concerning is this https://insideevs.com/news/625692/lucid-employees-reportedly-calling-canceling-clients-up-to-14-times/

    Spent some time w/ Lucid Air this morning… impressions

    Good luck to the dealer trying to sell that Lucid. I've only seen them sit on the dealer lots lots as trade Ins. Forget wholesaling it. Latest wholesale is $135k for a Dream with half the Miles on it. Its a $170k car and was trading in the $180ks earlier this year. I agree with most of your...

    BMW i7

    Boy what a disappointment. Another car that looks sexy in pictures, but cheap plastic, paper thin leather, poor materials all over. No wonder it's inexpensive for all the features you get. Useless massage seats, ultra high dash. I should drive it in a week to get a better feel Appreciate the...

    Rimac Nevera sets EV speed record

    Visually there is nothing about it that Is appealing. By 2030 it will have the Bugatti skin and interior. Im interested in seeing what tech Porsche will get from this

    Rimac Nevera sets EV speed record

    Blistering performance and a top speed of 258mph. Eventually this will be a Bugatti, with Porsche and the rest of the VW family that will benefit from this R&D

    Porsche 718 / 983 Boxster / Cayman EV Sports Car Announced For 2025 Launch

    The only non EV Porsche that interests me is the GT3/GT3RS for the same reasons you mentioned. NA, 9000 revs symphony is very appealing. Dual clutch, forced induction is what pushed me to BEV. A Lotus Exige with a GT3 power train would be a dream

    Glad to be done with Porsche and Taycan

    Lucid just did a $600m secondary and $915m from the Saudis When I was looking to get the Grand Touring, I was going to lease as a way to hedge against such a young company. The therms weren't bad. Captive through BofA
