Any thoughts on the Ford Mustang? Was looking at a Nissan 370Z Coupe but the MPG is terrible.

what about a used... save that money so you dont have to worry about MPG...

you can get a fun car easily under 10k... or go 2-5k budget and do upgrades..

I want to get a mini someday soon. I know, not the classic "man" car, but those cars look like go-karts and go-karts are fun.

Same here. I read those things can meet you out in front of drive way and have the cabin reeady at the perfect temperature or whatever you prefer.

Yeah, they're expensive as shit. No gas though. To get one that's all decked out with autopilot and all that, including 0-60 in under 3 seconds, you're looking at 135k. If I hit it rich, that's the car I'd buy.

The whole idea behind buying an expensive car is to burn fossil fuel like there is no tomorrow.

Do I have to teach you dicklickers everything?

Pffftttttt....anyone that spends 120k on a car and pretends it's about the environment or his fellow man is a phony and should donate that money to charity. I call bullshit and will dislike them

Or maybe they like the car and not paying for gas.

Yeah, cause at $2/gal the dynamics of an electric car outweighs the additional price you pay for an electric car. Duh.

You'd be right, if we weren't talking about buying expensive cars that will have minimal difference in price.

The difference they are charging for the electric feature far outweighs any costs savings over gas. Car for posers

You're bitching about a car that goes 0-60 in 2.8 seconds and boasts 762 hp, simply because it's electric.

The time to buy that car was a few years ago. The govt was offering huge tax incentives since it was an all electric car, which made it very affordable, but those tax incentives are gone now. And Tesla owners are douchebags. I've seen countless times where they use an electric charge station as their own personal parking spot. They're not even using the charging station, but instead just park their car there.

That shit would drive me nuts. I hate when people do that at the gas pumps too, especially when there's parking spots.
