What Car Should I Buy? - A Weekly Megathread
Any posts pertaining to car buying suggestions or advice belong in this weekly megathread; do not post car-choosing questions in the main queue. A fresh thread will be posted every Monday and posts auto sorted by new. A few other subreddits worth checking out that will help your car buying experience are /r/WhatCarShouldIBuy, /r/UsedCars and /r/AskCarSales. www.everydaydriver.com may also be helpful.
Make/Model-specific questions should be asked on Make/Model-specific subreddits. Check the AutosNetwork for a complete list of those subreddits. Also check out our community-sourced Ultimate car buying wiki.

Additional Notes:
For those providing suggestions: Facts are ideal in this thread, especially when trying to help out a new car buyer. Please help out buyers with sources and reasoning for your suggestions.
For those asking for help, be sure to thank those who take the time to offer you advice (especially those who lead you to a purchase.) A follow up thank you and the knowledge that their advice led to a purchase is a very warm fuzzy feeling.

Tesla 'Cannot Guarantee' Your Roadster Pre-Order Will Ever Be Delivered
insideevs.comAs the reservation agreement available online says:
"You understand that Roadster is still under development at the time you entered into this Agreement and so we cannot guarantee when your vehicle will actually be delivered or if it will be delivered ... The estimated Purchase Price of the vehicle, if provided, is only an estimate. We are still working on what options, features and hardware the vehicle will have and so cannot confirm the exact price just yet."

video Hagerty - The FLYING Tesla Roadster explained by the man who engineered it
https://youtu.be/22rvpUecLts?is=Dav-zfQoXrHlgXQP
Henry Catchpole sits down with Tesla’s VP of Vehicle Engineering, Lars Moravy, to talk about how it all works, what’s changed over the years, and how technology from Optimus and SpaceX helped make it possible.
Design: It’s now a two-seat supercar with a sleek, wedge-shaped design, pop-down headlights, and some really cool moving body panels.
Power: All three versions have over 1,341 horsepower and 1,400 Nm of torque, with power going to the rear wheels.
Performance model: Adds fans and skirts to create more downforce, helping the car stay planted on the road, even at low speeds.
Thrust version: Uses four nitrogen-powered thrusters to go from 0 to 60 mph in a claimed 0.85 seconds.
Rocket version: Adds six more thrusters and another nitrogen tank. This is the version that can actually lift off the ground, with a claimed 0–60 mph time of just 0.55 seconds.
More details: The video also covers the battery, tires, robotic actuators, and the futuristic steering yoke.

roadandtrack.comr/cars • u/1132saturday • 10h ago
Is the Porsche Mission S essentially what the R8 would have eventually become if it wasn't discontinued?
I can't be the only one thinking this. The R8 was discontinued a few years ago and we all know that Porsche doesn't have tons of cash sitting around to develop a new car, so the easiest solution is to rebadge something that worked in the past and add some styling and tech to it.
