Nissan 370Z Forum  

Anyone driven or moved to a Tesla 3?

They're already making $12 billion in revenue after 15 years. For reference, Porsche, who tend to be the same demographic oddly enough, make $24 billion and have been around since

They're already making $12 billion in revenue after 15 years. For reference, Porsche, who tend to be the same demographic oddly enough, make $24 billion and have been around since the 30s. I think they'll be fine. It's not like their cars is their only business, they work with other makers as well.

Kinda strange how you're so pro Kia, who aren't doing anything special other than catching up, but dismiss Tesla who've single-handedly changed the market.

Well, if you're spending 20 billion, for example, to make 12 billion after 15 years, I'm not sure that's something to rally about. And that's with a ton of government support.

That's fine though, we can agree to disagree.

I only support motors that make noise n burn gas... Im an enthusiast. Electric cars are boring period. I thought we were enthusiasts here? Not driving a calculator on wheels. My bad. Gas engine or Go home is usually the enthusiast motto.

It's so interesting that I'm impressed with one well built good driving car. As I have the driving experience to have an opinion and the best most of you can say is. " My friends Rio or optima sucks" Have to stress I like the Kia Stinger as some sort of devaluation. And they're catching up to who in the price point? Get in a $44k Stinger Drive it... Then get in something else 44k brand new with 4 doors. N explain to me How Kia is catching up. At 44k. There's the Giulia n the stinger. Everything else gotta catch up at the price. Wake up from your sleep.

But we hatdda bring up. My Kia opinion on a Tesla page. Weakness at its best.

I hadn't seen nor driven one but had done plenty of research on Tesla cars and I think that the specs and tech are there but I'm not a huge fan of the styling. Looks like something out of Demolition Man lol...however the specs and the fanciness of it make it cool..I would say if you love it go for it but at that price point you've got some pretty stiff competition to look at. Good luck with whatever direction you go man!
