Sports cars with ICE are actually green. I worked in this industry, average mileage is under 1000 miles a year. You will see 30 year old cars with barely 20,000 miles.
It’s bizarre, but people pay half a million dollars for cars they either can’t drive because they are so uncomfortable, or won’t drive because they fear devaluation.
Do we think they’ll pull a U-turn if Ferrari’s launches well?
I love the typical carguy’s thinking.
Doesn’t matter that it’s faster.
Doesn’t matter how it looks.
Doesn’t matter if it’s better for the environment.If it don’t do the wroom wroom - car bad. Thanks, EU.
Dud3 i was talking to said he just likes the smell of gas. I was like wtf dude, I think you’ve sniffed too much of it. I said like that I can make my own “fuel” off the 8.5kw of solar panels on my roof.
Lamborghini simply don’t have the funds.
They had to scale back and eventually cancel their LMDh program last year.
Lamborghini is owned by the VW AUDI group. The self centered douches who buy these cars have no interest in EVs.
And Audi cancelled its entire Motorsports programs. LMDh, GT, TCR for F1.
Porsche has also reduced its LMDh program.

I drive cars like these. I just code.
Lambos, Porsches, Ferrari’s all have most of their line up attractively priced for upper middle class people. Especially when you consider cost per mile vs the price tag.
My 911 GTS, with a price tag of 160k will have cost me maybe 7 or 8k to own for 3 year, mostly in insurance, assuming no huge price changes.
If you buy the right cars and can afford the payment, these cars are not incredibly expensive to own. You’re thinking of hypercars.
You just admitted the fucking thing cost $160K. There is zero chance you’d ever convince me that’s not expensive. $30K is what most people would call expensive. Jesus Christ how’s it possible to be so out of touch?
Are you upper middle class? Then maybe that’s why you lack the ability to see how it’s affordable for the top 5% 🤷♂️
You skipped immediately into an emotional argument and skipped by the actual cost to own 🤷♂️.
This car here, ignoring resale value, costs less than my daycare, which I no longer have to pay 🤷♂️.
It doesn’t matter if it literally makes you money to own, when it costs that much and you cannot see it, it’s probably because you and your friends are rich and shallow. Now, how’s that for actually getting emotional?
I’m shallow for pointing out the ownership costs and liking cars? Yes, the cars with their resale values can sometimes even be free. That’s exactly my point. That’s how upper middle class people buy these. You have this weird fixation on attacking me for making a top 5% salary and explaining who actually owns these.
I write open source code for a living. I can afford an expensive MSRP car because of these economics. What exactly has triggered you into hating me me so much?
I don’t think anyone else remotely gives a shit how you explain the cost breakdown. The comments you made here come off extremely out of touch. That’s why you’re getting loads of downvotes on every single one.
Kill the messenger I guess 🤷♂️
Idiots pay $160,000 for a car and call them not expensive. Don’t forget das devaluation.
Go look at the depreciation on many of these low volume cars.

That’s a normal 911 off the lot. The special ones often go up in value.
My 911 GTS, with a price tag of 160k will have cost me maybe 7 or 8k to own for 3 year, mostly in insurance, assuming no huge price changes.
You’re missing a few costs, or it never leaves it’s parking space. Or you live so close to where you work you don’t even need a car.
Nope
Can’t wait for 2035 when they are forced to make EVs
Forced? Non EVs are like the first Ford cars in 2030s
