WHAT THE FUCK?

HOW IS THAT POSSIBLE?

HOW DO YOU PAY MORE THAN $30K FOR A CAR IN THE USA?
>>
Because they are imported directly from Shanghai so the US doesn't get to tariff them.
>>
At that price it's still a scam. Why would you get a Model 3 when you can get a Civic Hybrid for the same money except it'll last 5 times as long, doesn't lose half its range in the winter, and has an actual interior with buttons
>>
>>534324060
Well I don't, I work on my own car, i could spend 10-15k and a week of work replacing every part on my car with a new one.

Basically if I ever buy another car it's because I wake up one day and say.

>fuckit i'm lazy this week I'm gonna burn 30k.

The crazy shit is that if I do this with a chance of making my money back it's called gambling.

>t. 3D puzzle enjoyer

Because civics have plastic valve covers and will degrade just as quickly
>>
americans are so fucking stupid
>>
>>534324685
just replace them with better material, ya dingus
>>
>>534324060
Can you go to Canada an just buy one? What's the big deal
>>
Canadian Teslas have L VINs.
>>
>>534324060
>HOW IS THAT POSSIBLE?

Government EV subsidy paid for by your taxes.
>>
>>534324060
starting with obunga, tesla has relied heavily on customers getting govt subsidies to buy teslas.
trump kept the subsidies btw
>>
A lot of shit is actually cheaper in Canada but Chudnadians are stupid and dont realize exchange rates exist so when a loaf of bread is $4 in New York and $4.50 in Ontario it's cheaper up there.
>>
>>534324060
>10,000 dollarino saving on a loan you’re gonna take with insane interest anyway!
Stupid people will think this is a deal
>>
>>534325219
It's extremely common to get American change at stores when you pay with cash. I get like $10 worth of change a year in USD just buying random shit.
>>
>>534324060
Tesla was selling cars where the range was limited at a cheaper price in order to meet some of the provincial subsidies. Sort of like how Intel first came up with the Celeron where they deliberately lobotomized it to make it slower and cheaper.
>>
>>534324060
you can buy an S or E class from 2005 for 1/10th that price.
>>
>>534325449
Even in NYC I would find maple coins occasionally.
>>
>>534324299
Because civics are gay
>>
>>534326065
teslas are way gayer
obguna was all about them and he was our first openly gay president (trump is the second btw)
>>
Their cars are shit here for half of the year, and our charging infrastructure is both ass, and literally cannot handle mass adoption of EVs without the power grid being pushed to the brink. Same will be the case for the Chink EVs. Less value relative to their use-case in the USA.
>>
>>534326932
at least the chinks are developing sodium ion batteries and theyre pretty much ready for mass adoption.
im sure teslaniggers will find some excuse to never upgrade and jeetlon will lobby to make sure sodium ion batteries are banned here.

Nothing personelle, kid

>>534324891
and void your warranty

>>534324060
>make cars with American tax dollars
>sell them for cheaper to non-Americans
WHY IS NOBODY DYING?!
>>
>>534324060
If you're spending that much money on car and it's not a sportscar, you're fucking up.
>>
>>534327405
Americans don't have enough guns yet to fight against tyranny.
>>
>>534324299
Model 3 is way nicer than a civic, its more comparable to the accord, and the accord is gay
>>
>>534324060
Canadians have lower salaries so this seems fair

got my model 3 for like $16k with the EV credit, it has 200k+ miles now and still has equity lol
>>
>>534324299
Why would you get the hybrid when you can get a Honda Civic with spoon engine, T66 turbo with NOS, and a Motec system exhaust?

Can I just buy it in Canada and drive back into the US?
>>
>>534324060
>drive a chink spyware car
>>
>>534328180
>US tech companies don't spy on you
>>
>>534324060
Elon's appealing to the jeet market, he knows they love his cars
>>
>>534327790
>Nicer
All amenities are immediately negated by the obnioxous laggy touchscreen. I rented one in Cali and couldn't wait to get back to my shitty Kia that has actual tactile buttons for things.
>>
>>534328053
no because it's a tesla car it comes with a subscription service and they shut it down if you don't follow the rules.
>>
>>534327387
>"and void your warranty"
ez
>warranty still in place
>make warranty claim instead
Then
>warranty no longer in place
>replace parts with more durable replacements
I think sourcing compatible and more durable components would be the difficult part. There isn't money to be made from parts that last for these companies.
>>
It's happening!
>Source: Literally Who? on twitter.
>>
>>534324060
Imagine wasting your money on a EV.
