why is tesla not a good sports car? it has very high acceleration and instant torque.
not a bait thread, i genuinely wonder.

The acceleration stats aren't consistent with repetition, it's heavy as fuck, and most likely has some odd wear items in performance applications.

>>16113832
It's not a sports car. That's why it's not a good sports car.
>>
>>16113832
Weight. The worst brakes barely still possible to even get street legality, even with the biggest motor. One "ludicrous mode" acceleration depletes the battery a shitload and power goes down significantly.
A lap around the Ring basically kills the Tesla.

You could make something better than that for a fraction of the price even if you have basic skills.

Tesla fatal crash and fire.png

The Tesla’s driver, a 27 year-old woman, and her 44 year-old passenger were allegedly driving at a “high rate of speed,” IFD Battalion Chief Kevin Jones told WTHR, when the driver lost control and slammed into a tree. The driver was pronounced dead on the scene, the passenger later died in the hospital.
The crash sent battery cells “firing off almost like projectiles around the rescuers”.

Well, that's your problem

Guessing this was some thirsty dude who actually owned the car and wanted to impress her by letting her drive.

It's not the velocity you idiots, it's the acceleration at the end.

Get a car with paddle shifters or learn stick.

I want to remove my dealer frame that's covered in advertisements, but I'm looking for one where you can slide the plate in, so it keeps the metal off the paint. Should I just buy a cheap plastic frame, or are the metal ones better? I imagine a decent metal one would have a rubber backing to protect the paint.

>>16113303
They wouldn't. Get some double stick interior tape and stick it on the 4 corners of your plate then put your frame back on and RE install screws. The tape is probably only available through a dealership but you can buy a substitute after that it should be good. I personally don't worry about what your worried about because my plate is secured so it won't move.

My Polo is stuck between two cars, I've been waiting for 1 1/2 hour, tried to wiggle my way out, can't do shit with my 60 hp plus the clutch started smelling.
Live in the city they said... called the police, as usual they can't do shit, I'm stuck.

Wat do

Sell the Polo as is where is and buy a new car an hour later. Problem solved. Also move out of the city, fuck that

Could probably get a mate or two to come help you flip the van over. That's one way of getting out I'd say. You seem pretty fucked, I'm surprised police won't do anything. Try the council perhaps?

Went and checked out this 07 camry today. No real damage inside or out. Test drove it and it drove like a dream. Guy is asking $3425 for it. It has a NOT ACTUAL MILEAGE brand on the title, which I realize is a huge red flag. They told me the DMV made an error. The car has only had 1 owner and has never been in an accident according to carfax. The NOT ACTUAL MILEAGE brand is literally the start of the vehicles history. It has 232k on it now. Thoughts?

Just get a civic for 3k. Clean title, 2 owner if possible, manual trans, stock radio, ex trim. 03-05

>>16112553
Eh I bought a car with a not actual mileage issue. Guy gave me proof that the improper mileage was reported to the dmv and that it was corrected. Tbh I wouldn't let mileage scare you unless it's some grave oversight and it's clear you might be getting scammed.
