So should I get this car at 6k? Like is it worth it. It’s too sexy

BUT OFCR

I am in the same boat right now!!! and i didn’t want an electric- they said only one available and gave me no info!! they were rude and i feel so unsafe with a car i don’t know how to use

Like my mechanic says, BMW owners love their cars until they have to fix them. If you are buying the 2011i xDrive, ask if the Vanos system recall (look it up) was performed on the car. I bought one of these cars and the initial inspection showed the recall was not performed. When I took it to BMW they did the work no problem and found one of the bolt heads that broke off in the oil pan. I have no idea how the car still ran but was lucky I got this done ASAP. The other recall was the air bag. There must have been 2 types in this model and mine was not subject to the recall. I'm dealing with the oil leaks as they appear (oil filter housing gasket, oil pan drain plug grommet) but love the car despite the issues. My car came with the run flat tires and rims, so I bought a spare rim with a tire and a jack. I take it out of the trunk for most of my driving, but put it back in on long trips. They look great and perform great on the highway, but around town you feel every nook and cranny! Ahh, the price of vanity!

Is this about Polestar 2 or Hertz/Electrify America?

I put all season tires michelin run flat. And perform better a low temperature. 20 f no problem

Yet another goose who can’t problem solve real world problems.

This is a great video

Your car turning on in the garage could've been a MITM attack, someone with a signal stealing device got the signal from your keys and turned your vehicle on, good thing it was in the garage. That's my take on the likely culprit

I believe he might fluid top off with filter change. That comment is interchange.

My 2023 34k in 31 months vin 3423. No problems. GM service schedule.

The Dealer Software Update sounds very BMW'ish.

Either manual or automatic, be prepared to shell out about two grand getting the torque tube bushings and bearings replaced...if not you're in for a rude awakening 🙄

The engine started on it's own?

Nothing wrong with Polestar, But bad with Hertz. I have same results with Turo. Give money for returning vehicle at below 50% or whatever.

Swapped out the stock pads at 600 miles for Powerstop z26 pads. Great cold and hot braking with good initial bite and modulation. Very little dust and no noise. Can’t beat these pads for value.

4:10 , That sounds kinda like the CCP wants to install an upgrader Trackker on you. Spooky!

0:04 how come it looks like it was recorded on a slow home security cam

Not all Hertz Polestar rentals are dual motor. You know when you look at the maximum range when you first open the car. Divide the miles remaining by the percentage of battery remaining as a decimal. If it says 240-250 at full charge, then it is likely a dual motor. If it says 260-280 it is a single motor which is a very un-spirited drive. Many of the 2022 and later do not have pilot assist either which is one of the big benefits of Polestar. Never in my experience has Hertz charged me for battery level on return. Hertz does a terrible job of training people on how to use these cars. These are some of the best cars for the money and off-lease used ones are under $25k and trigger a $4k tax credit for most people. If you have the ability to charge at home, this car is a top choice. if not, stick with gas.

Blah Blah Blah. the same thing that has been said over and over for the last 6 month and on top of that they have done the manufactures "3 strikes and you're out" with saying now three times the car would be out for the public. As I actually had a phone call with GM today asking when, pricing and if the car is going to be a 25 or a 26. The answer to all of this was "I don't know". When I then call the car nothing more than a prototype I defiantly stepped on a nerve as they were fast to say it is not. As I explained 'You have built 1 car that has done 233 in another country, but you have no allocations to go out to any dealers, you have no idea the cost, you have no idea what the year will be and for that matter you cannot tell me the MPG (Not that it matters) that is what they call in the car world a prototype. Yes, GM screwed up during covid telling their supplier of carbon fiber "No" when it was time to reorder so they are limited on that as the supplier sold yearly contracts to everyone else. whoops! Then there is the shady deal GM cut with China on the lifters. The lifters were supposed to be made of titanium and not recycled titanium, so the lifters began to derogate. Well, that is what you get when you wanna build something with a country that wants to bomb us off the face of the planet. So good luck to you all thinking the car is just around the corner, because it certainly is not.

Thank you! So helpful. Maybe I'll get one one day

More like hysteria blue

Even though you're paying a premium for dealership service, future buyers will love it.

I replaced mine on my 2007 in September 2024 having done the work myself at a friends garage that had a 2 post hoist. At 35,000 miles it had developed a significant wobble. I replaced the Dampener with one made by Dorman. Fit and finish of the unit is excellent.

Great video but you’re describing a car in perfect condition, which most C4s are not in.

Ive been using Carbotech brake pads for 10 years on various cars. Call Mike Jr for right pad for your driving style

What minimum temperatures did you drive your Michelin 4S's in before parking for the winter? I live in Northern Virginia and recently had all four tires lose traction (on my spec ordered six month-old 2024 Z51 with 4S's and magride) under moderate cornering on curve on a clean smooth four-lane road on a 40 degree F dry November day when the tire temp read "cool" on the dash. Fortunately the electronic nanny caught it and kept it from sliding sideways into the SUV that was going about the same speed in the right lane next to me -- that was extraordinarily sobering if not downright embarassing to say the least. I now have a now have a stack of replacement all-season Michelins and second set of wheels waiting to be mounted. I don't have many miles on the C8 yet but so far it appears to be all I hoped for I only wish it had a bit more headroom at 6'2" despite what I read elsewhere I can only barely fit in the convertible, headroom in the coupe was no go due to the reinforced targa bar. I'm a sucker for high performance options but if I had it to do over again I probably would have ordered the all-seasons and maybe even not the Z51. BTW I decided to go for a fully loaded Z51 with its low-end grunt rather than a base Z06 (both spec'd out at about the same price) as the C8 is intended as a daily driver, I have several other high performance cars (an E63 and a 911) with rpm-related potential that is frustratingly but practically limited by the traffic common in this area.

I just purchased a 2025 identically specked c8. The monroney sticker shows $98k and change. What website were you at that has my car for $10k less msrp?

He went through the hoops to have the yellow engine cover and fluid covers - all I can say is LOL.

LOL, he says at 30,000 miles the wheels have held up well. Wow, that makes this overpriced thing worth it.

The all black interior is the best looking not the ugly colored ones - but what king of a moron would think changing the color of the seat belts would look cool.???

The more I look at this car the more ridiculous it looks to me. After owning a C5 Convert and wanting a C6 Convert I am now thinking the Dave McLellan era C4 styling was the best. C7s are butt ugly especially the coupes.

This video just highlights how stupid people are so willing to throw their money out on crappy looking and crappy engineered vehicles.

The Polestar is a superb car if you like a great driving experience. The technological features inside the cabin are adequate but nothing special. Polestar was previously the racing division of Volvo and has since been sold to another carmaker. The car handles exceptionally well and if you have the performance model it goes 0-60 in 3.9 seconds. The base model will do 0-60 in about 6.5 seconds. The Polestar is more sports car than sedan.

That car is a hole in the road to throw money into.

Great video! Thanks for sharing. Happy New Year 🥂

That was a great video very helpful thanks

Great video exclamation point beautiful Carr exclamation point I had a 2020 C8 and I loved it. I now have a 2023Z06 anniversary edition in Pearl White. I drive it!

30k miles for Pilot Sports is great, I only run Michelins. With tires that wide, 30k is the norm for tread life especially if you're tracking the car..

You have had better luck than myself. After one year, my 2023 spent several weeks at the dealership getting a new replacement transmission, then less than 2000 miles later more service regarding ECM and mystery electrical issues. Entire dash display would go blank, engine would shut down or stammer. After a month of attorney/GM letter writing, GM bought it back. When the dealer did the first trans service, they missed ( or so they say ) the metal fragments in the filter and pan. During the trans install, the mechanic crushed, damaged one of the harnesses which led to part of the electrical issues. I truly regret selling my ‘19 C7 Z06. Sold it to buy the ‘23. 52000 miles and not one glitch.

So what's it like to spend $85K on a car that looks just like EVERYONE ELSES ...?

Get some akebono pads, theyre the best

Ceramic brake pads no dust

Sorry if this is a dopey question. What is the recommendation for a high ticket like this - buy or lease - downpayment on the buy or the lease? Thanks.

2015 stingray 2 owners 104k miles $24k cash from private seller good deal? should I pull the trigger? Looking for advice of corvette owners TIA

Beautiful color. Gotta tell ya, a car that needs software updates...NO, thanks. What happens when they stop supporting it. You'll have a car as worthless as a Windows 98 PC. When they start building cars again instead of rolling computers, I may consider a new one.

Thank you for the update. What is the name of the color blue your car is?

The pop up headlight problem is often due to a nylon gear (not the expensive motor) that has failed... an easy fix is to replace that main gear with a brass one... works great.

So what kind of fuel economy have you gotten after 30K? Also, how do the new tires compare vs the old?
