Have this weird theory on the evolution of Tesla drivers—or at least one demographic, anyway:
Volvo 240 DL > Volvo 740 (reluctantly, as there was a brief hole in the market) > Subaru Outback > Pruis > Prius or Tesla
The common thread is "cars for people who don't like cars and want you to know it", so the idea of the Tesla club is curious to say the least.

At leas the Prius and Volvo have some build quality.
Maybe we need a facebook page for Left Lane Tesla as well.
This is how I imagine the Tesla factory after seeing the mess they deliver:

Interesting. Tesla owners in Europe are just as annoying and brainwashed as they are here in the US. It really is a bizarre thing. The cars are so poorly made that they are literally falling apart in front of their eyes but they refuse to acknowledge it's a problem. They'll even go apeshi*t on you if try say it's a problem. The DEATHS from 'autopilot'? No lawsuits. Crazy.

Even tough this thread was started with a bitter taste in the mouth I'm starting to really enjoy it
Well, we have a guy that seen a red GT2RS on the E6 north of Oslo today around 16.00 CET.
Could be just a petrol drinking Norwegian 2RS.

Just a thought, will Porsche report info it receives on a stolen vehicle? If a car ever plugs into a PIWIS or uses a VIN number to buy parts will it set off an alarm and generate a notification. This is worth looking into.

How is it that they can’t get these guys pulled over??
Police not interested, I mean they never are over there but this should get them a photo in the local paper with a bright red GT2RS, no?

Same guy with the door that wouldn't close took delivery of another car and the glove box dropped open and wouldn't close
Crazy panels gaps
Crooked trims
I could go on and on and this is just people I personally know.
Why, do you own one?? Lol!

And they spend ample money on PPF and coatings. They put so much in to these freakin cars. I think they are delusional -probably all smoking the same XXXX as Elon- got to get me some of that crap

No doubt Porsche owners waste way more money on cars than Tesla owners do. But there are plenty of people who own both.
But rather than let this bash session rage on, anyone who's interested should just go read the Tesla existential threat thread where
a debate rages like a NorCal wildfire...

In the meantime, I'll just leave this here, as it may help Kobalt and the rest of us understand the wider Tesla viewpoint....

In the meantime, I am still trying to get my head around stealing cars that you can never plug into any diagnostic equipment ever. Other than for various parts, what's the market for these? Folks who will drive them until they fail and push them off a cliff?
