I placed a model y performance order, about 4-5 months ago. ...
The range of model y would probably be 210ish in my way of driving. My friend who has a model s, had 31 small concerns addressed in the first year he owned the car. That was a huge con..
I hate the model y looks, it’s like out of a Pixar cars movie. Dimensions are like an egg. That didn’t help either.

That would be a hard price to justify IMO. The Lyriq is in the low $60k range and you really can't option it. I think they'll be similar size and Cadillac is known for luxury. Not sure why Polestar would think they can get a 50% premium.

I test drove it and honestly I loved the acceleration and the interior dimensions were decent too. only after I ordered it whenever I saw it on the road I was questioning myself that I really want to get this now. One I passed few model ys (trip to NY) wife mentioned that this car looks even uglier than the Prius I owned back in 09. so its a combination of things, Range I didnt know drops that much based the way you drive. after educating myself (should have done before) but I didnt think it justifies 70K plus tag. Plus I dont want to deal with any issues

I never liked how the Ys, 3s, and Xs look. They looked tall like the GX I had. But this weird proportion grew on me. Still don't like the front and how the lights look and need to look inside but the tails look fine to me now. I was bombarded by bunch of Ys, 3s and 2 X, 2 S yesterday. People are buying these left and right. If I went with EV, I most likely would consider a Tesla. Hopefully by then the front will change/grow on me too.

I placed a model y performance order, about 4-5 months ago. Came about 68 plus tags taxes etc. now they are at 70k plus I think.
well the time came to pick it up, had the financing secured etc/ bought car charger at home and the travel charger which they don’t include.
2 days before pick up I cancelled, lost the 500$ deposit plus money I already spent on things mentioned above.
i was thinking of retiring my 2013 rx350 with 195k miles on it. Tesla gave me a rap offer on the rx which turned me off anyways I figured I will sell it or just keep it. So which car should I get rid off, gsf? No I like the gsf a lot better. Lx570? Same as I use it for cross country trips. So no.
back to rx350 which is at almost 200k with no issues looks and runs like brand new and I was thinking if the model y can go 100k maybe it’s a keeper. But I usually don’t drive speed limit, am faster not aggressive just 10-20 mph faster than posted. Here we have long highways and straight back roads with no traffic.

The Taycans are beautiful; I see them running around here quite a bit. But 300 mile range? Bring a lunch. Here's one we saw in downtown Palo Alto. Wifey cooed, "Ooh, is this ours?"

they have improved quite a bit and they keep doing so every year, I dont think they are near the lexus quality yet; their interior is very dull. The model y was surprisingly comfortable to drive, It has alot of usable space inside. I was also hoping they would be offering the new battery in the model y; seems like they just using less battery and keeping the same range.
absolutely love the Taycan sports truismo GTS
