We're on the exact same page. I have a full archive copy of zlib and I highly recommend anyone who gives a damn about reading to do the same.

I need to take a picture, but Tesla has been using an abandoned mall parking lot near me for some time to store excess vehicles. Well, that parking lot now looks like a mall from the 90s at Christmas time because there could easily be a thousand vehicles parked there. It seems like the number just keeps growing and growing every time I drive by the spot. I'm not sure if it's a regional hub where they store vehicles for a multistate area or whatever, but it's unbelievable how many cars are parked there now.
I'm not sure if it's people not wanting EVs, or if Musk really upset people by taking away their left-wing propaganda arm Twitter. |

It's primarily the cities of Vancouver/Victoria, Toronto, Ottawa & Montreal. All bastions of very progressive liberal green enthusiasm.

No, because adding 2 and 2 *does equal 4. The only supposition is in whether i have apples. But keep *equivocating.

the new model 3 performance seems to have some good improvements. the styling and seats for one. i agree it seems to be more of a facelift than a new generation. its like 8 years old now. i was listening to the carmudgeon podcast with jason camisa and he said the car is better than an M3 now. His explanation was a bit too far fetched though... basically something to the effect of if its not a high rpm NA engine with a manual and lightweight... why even bother.

I, for one, would love to see what someone can lap a circuit in the newer Model 3 Performance. It touts a bunch of "Track focused" upgrades, but we all know about Elon/his marketing team/EV Performance car woes. I'd love to see where it stacks up versus other similarly-priced cars on repeated laps of the 'Ring or Suzuka.
Curious to see if anyone'll make meaningful EV track toys that don't Alt+F4 after a few battery cycles. I'd love to see it versus the new i4 LCI and the i5. Not sure if any of you have driven a 'fast' EV with aggressive regenerative braking, but it's quite... different? Not better, not worse, just a different headspace. Our Taycan and Model Y Performance laps were quite intriguing, being a single speed transmission with a serious sensation of 'engine braking' due to regen. A totally different way to drive fast vs my Miata or M3C. Quote:
Good god, move the goalposts further.

- the E90 chassis was the last of the real BMW DNA cars - GM should LS-swap the CT4 Blackwing - the current BMW 3 Series M CS is overweight and too isolated - because of the above, the new Model 3P is the better car now |

Oh and brakes. Jesus christ good breaks too. How did the braking feel when you used maintenance throttle? What did the breakzone feel like switching from one pedal to the other? Is there a double hit of regen then full force brakes?
