largely the car industry learned a lesson courtesy of our friends at ford. ford pinto
The Pinto, a subcompact car made by Ford Motor Company, became infamous in the 1970s for bursting into flames if its gas tank was ruptured in a collision. The lawsuits brought by injured people and their survivors uncovered how the company rushed the Pinto through production and onto the market.
f1 had ferrari v12’s with a 1.5L back in the 50’s. 3L and 3.5L v12’s were around in the 80’s
jags, bentleys, rolls and mclarens… some of the worst offenders. hmmm. something seems similar but i just cant put my finger on it.
he also has a couple model specific porsche videos recently. a gt3, turbo s, cayman and taycan… all within the last 2 months.
I would highly recommend his channel if you are considering buying/selling porsche or high end sports/supercars. he doesn’t talk to the feelz… all is based off fact/data in the market.
curious why people refer to these as $200k+ cars.
i tried the ‘build’ option on audi’s website in canada and with the most expensive options and including every single thing to increase cost it was $187,958 canadian / $137,000 usd.
now, i get it is sorta close to 200k but normally people refer to pricing as an average spec not with a optional $7999 special paint colour, a optional $5,000 stereo or the $2500 night vision etc etc etc.
not picking on you… seems everytime this car is mentioned it is somewhere from $200k to $250k.
seen similar from putting things on the roof so as to free up a hand to open the door. doesnt take much to do these small scratches… but they will buff out easy so it is not that big a deal.
it is maddening that there is not a ‘off’ button for these updates… or at least requiring a positive acknowledgement to do a change. it doesn’t take a rocket scientist to know this type of problem will happen again.
why is it so terrible? seems like a leap. i assume you are a member of elons ‘hater’ club? if i have this wrong, i apologize and provide sources for why based on facts as opposed to butthurts.
no bentley or aston martin? i thought both of them would be flirting with the worst depreciation not opnly in dollars but percentage. i think they must not be included? (jaguar is there… so?)
drinking and driving was culturally fine even into the 90s. i remember in the 90’s flipping coins for who was going to drive - not for a designated driver, this was after the bar/club for who would drive the gang back drunk as fuk. remember the saying,’ i’ll take one for the road?’ that was a drink and to drive home.
then around here (greater toronto area in mid/late 90’s) the madd campaigns and whatnot… then the police took a zero tolerance and the game was over. get caught and you are screwed.
