I think maximum sales, and profits, would be around a $250K selling price. My b-i-l has been eyeing this for years, and doubt he is a buyer at $1M. For $1M I would get a 911, a McLaren, C8Z, BlackWing V, C7ZR1 and Escalade. |

Yes, the Vette is slightly faster but if the MYP can hang with a Vette, a X5 won't stand a chance. |

The Tesla Model Y is a basic ass piece of shit SUV that happens to go fast in a straight line. Quote:
The most absurd part, the thing that is absolutely mind blowing at this point... is that you still can't get it through your f**king head that none of that shit matters to 99% of the people buying SUVs. People buying a BMW or a Mercedes care about the seats. They care about the type of leather. They care about how it looks (lol Tesla), they care about how it feels. They care about the wheels. They care about about a very long list of things that aren't horsepower. Go ask a few X5M owners whether they care that the Tesla is faster in a straight line. They don't walk into a BMW dealership and ask how much horsepower the X5 has. They don't ask what the skidpad number is. They don't ask how fast it can run a lap on whatever track. That shit. Doesn't. Matter. I've met some dense people in my life but holy shit, you are on a whole new level. |

The BMW X5 ran a 7:42, I do not know the trim or if had enhancements, cannot confirm if a M-Series. Could not find a Model X or Y Ring time. 2024 X5M Competition ran a 2:58 at Lightning Lap: https://www.caranddriver.com/feature...storical-data/ |

A X5M is not in the same class as a Model Y Performance. The X5M belongs in a class with the MX Plaid, Urus, RSQ8 |

Meanwhile, in related EV news, Hertz is hurting bad after betting on EVs, Ford and GM can't sell their EVs, and Fisker just announced they're "pausing production" because of a cash shortage and "weak demand" for EVs.
But hey, EVs are the future according to idiots in the government. |

13000 miles on a set of tires I changed tires on my Kona Electric at 38k miles I had 26500 miles on my Model Y LR when I traded it in and it still had like 30% tread remaining. I changed tires on my Model X Plaid at 30k miles, mostly because the rear tires were worn on the inside due to the factory negative camber. (and those 30k miles included many drag strip launches). I installed camber spacers to get more even wear on my new set of tires. I should get 40k miles out of my new set of tires. The only time I can see tires only lasting 13k miles is a Model S Plaid with 21" wheels that constantly does launches and drives super hard.. Other than that, I can't see any EV only getting 13k miles out of a set of tires. |

I've never driven a car that was unable to pass normal traffic. If you feel the need to pass at 40 over because it tickles your tiny pickle to blow by another car, you're grasping for justification.

The URUS is almost 3 times the price of a Model X Plaid. It better has better materials and brakes considering the $$ you are paying.
