@notfunny339713 күн бұрын
Buying one new is absolutely a horrific idea because depreciation, it's gonna cost you more than just about any car except a Maserati But a used one for 40k, absolute steal, sucks for the guy who paid like 150k to buy it new back then, great for teenagers who financed something they absolutely cannot afford. At least a new one is only 90-110k (+20k for working brakes), but it's still gonna be worth less than half that in a year. Honestly just about all EVs are depreciation sinks, the only ones I would honestly consider is a 5 year old model S or new base Lucid Air Pure. 400hp at the rear wheels sounds great.

@DragTimes Sapphire owner here. In the manual is states that for acceleration events over 10 seconds, Sapphire mode will provide better times than Dragstrip mode. The battery is only conditioned for 1/4 mile runs in Dragstrip mode so power is reduced after 10 seconds. The exact language is as follows, located on page 16 in the Sapphire Track Manual: "The DRAGSTRIP profile optimizes the battery pack temperature and cools the drive units to ensure that the system is ready to output full power for short (up to ten seconds) bursts of acceleration. The DRAGSTRIP profile is the default when entering TRACK Mode. NOTE: For acceleration events longer than a quarter mile or ten seconds, selecting SAPPHIRE Mode will help you achieve the quickest time." It wouldn't matter against the Nevera, but I'd like to see what kind of time difference running it in Sapphire mode, as recommended, would yield.

The plaid costs 109k as tested, plus 20k for the track package Plus I believe this youtuber specifically bought a new even lighter magnesium or something wheel set, I don't think he told us the price but Porsche sells them for 20k, so probably at least 10-15 k from aftermarket vendors. So all in all, 109+20+10?= 139k Do some math, 250÷139= 1.79 So it's 79% more money for a few 0.2 or whatever second 0-60 This Tesla "package" would also give you 2 extra sets of wheels and 1 extra set of tyres. Wish they just let you add the track package from factory, would be cheaper that way. The sapphire is fully loaded at 249,900, so there's that at least, Porsches can double in price with options. I'm not sure what this youtuber didn't get in his Tesla, fully loaded is 110k, so he must have gotten a slightly cheaper color or something.

@twothbeave lighter wheels are useful for waayy more than just low end acceleration, it's both rotational mass and unsprung weight Just saying. It's not about the purchase price, it's about the price of ownership A Porsche 911 GT3 RS is way cheaper to own than Maserati gran turismo for example because the Maserati depreciates way faster. After you buy a 200k 911, you will still have a 160k in 3 years, if you buy a Maserati for 200k, you will have a 100k Maserati in 3 years. The Maserati costs twice as much. Someone who bought a plaid for 150k 2021, now has to sell it for 40-60k, a loss of 90-110k It cost them 3x what a Porsche 911 would have. No amount of fuel savings is gonna offset that. If you're gonna own the car forever, it's not a problem, except with an EV, the battery dies at some point. A 3 year old plaid for 40k is a good deal however. Honestly if the plaid was also a good luxury car like a lucid air, then it would be decent. A new lucid air pure or touring for around 70-78k is a better fit for most people honestly. It only has 3 second or whatever 0-60, but you're in luxury car so who cares. In a plaid, you have to deal with the rickety steering wheel lol

I'm seriously looking just to get the long range because even though I've driven the Plaid multiple times on the street, Plaid mode is too reactionary and quick for the street. Sport mode is much better but it's still quick too.

The brakes are great, of course, but the human reaction is not ready for such high speeds anywhere else except the dragstip, unless you are driving at 4 in the morning with nowhere traffic. So I agree with you, LR will be better even for people that want the crazy acceleration. It will still be incredibly fast. And c’mon, if you want to get some fun, just rent a Ferrari/Dodge/ or a Track-pack Plaid for a day, and it will be enough. The daily advantages of a bigger battery outweigh all speed differences.

And the only reason that first race wasn't closer is because on the turnaround the Plaid being a safety focused car, had it's stability control kick in and slow the car down. Once they put the car in track mode for the second race it responded better BUT track mode has a weaker launch profile than dragstrip mode so it gets off the line slower.

If you drive a plaid most won’t know the difference and think it’s another model 3. The Sapphire is more unique and way more of a flex, which is kind of the point of buying a car like that. You can drive a Ford that just as fast as a Porsche but people will notice the Porsche over an everyday ford.
