Maybe he'll trade it for a new Charger with the electronic fart sounds.

 

Maybe he'll trade it for a new Charger with the electronic fart sounds. That's what every car enthusiast wants LOL.

 

Probably going to need a bigger fart can muffler for the Plaid, just to keep the sound up with the HIGH performance

 

V enthusiast, nor can I see me p

th our old ICE stuff demands a driver's attention. That car will do nothing unless it is prompted into action by the driver. Shifting, traction... intentionally losing traction... all a connected driving experience.

Noise? No. Vibrate? No. Soul? Yes.

This kind of soul:

 

This does not interest me one bit

 

It interested you enough to post in this thread when you could have just skipped it.

 

I see the value in the model S plaid and its 9s capable platform. But being a life long racer, I love the idea of taking a car and chipping away at ETs while improving on the car's dynamics and power.

But the plaid is basically an appliance. Its one and done. Maybe a tenth up or down based on SOC or traction or even temps, but how boring.

You get the car, make your 1 hero pass then you're done. wow...wow... Or you spend the life of the car chasing a hundredth up and down and thats it. Or you have to gut your $130k electric appliance to get another few tenths.

Not something your normal car guy would be interested in. I think they are cool, but not for the enthusiast.

Plus it's forever hive linked, subject to remote management at any time, not user serviceable on any important level, and arguably worthless when the battery expires.

 

I just LOVE the fact that them, and US, can put a 9.0 on our window and cruise through tech!!!!!!!!!

 

 

Truthfully, it's still embarrassing getting beat on the street, electric or not a win is a win. I've gotten smoked more than once and it's a pride killer for sure..... Just my personal feelings about it.

 

There will always be someone faster than You or the Plaid,
Be proud of your ICE machine

 

 

Lol I'm sure we could deflect this debate to shaving.....discuss...

 

Beards... or....?

 

 

 

Now that’s ridiculously fast. Did they improve braking on the plaid yet?

 

A Bidet is fast too....Plaid is 5 letters......Bidet is 5 letters....coincidence?
