Used to love his channel when he focused on repairs and mods now it's mostly fluff and being "edgy". Too bad. This car is Rich being butthurt and giving Tesla the middle finger because they wouldn't allow updates on cars he hacked together.

That's no longer a Tesla, same as for example a classic car with a Tesla drivetrain. Looks like a classic but it's not.

Rich Rebuilds and his team put a V8 in a Model S. They went OEM as much as possible.

Maybe this new V8 Tesla build is the reason why the Tesla stock has lost all of its electricity the last two days

The only reason I could ever see for real world application is if the car was flooded or totalled and rebuilt and the electric drivetrain components were more expensive to replace. Then again, the level of fab required in this build probably cost more than just buying a new model S.

I think it's brilliant. If you guys watched the video, this car is basically Rich's way of laughing at and with SEMA, which he considers an event that exists soleley to destroy cars with mindless modifications. Which is exactly why he brought this car to SEMA.
