I'm so excited to receive my CT4S! (several months late.)

His choice of white, gloss black ORDP, and a couple red highlights is really well done, in my opinion.

This guy buys a car like every week. Something about this reviewer seems off. Everything is "my new" this and that.

I like his reviews, the animated graphics are always neat that he produces, but agreed, I highly doubt all the cars he says he buys are his otherwise just recently he's bought a Taycan, AMG Black Series, 992 TTS.

I have almsot 13K miles on my CT4S and I have to agree with his initial statement. Took me about a month to get used to it, I almost returned it after 2 weeks but then missing all the mechanical drama but then I suddenly had 3K miles 5K miles 10K miles. I have 3 other cars sitting in the garage gathering dust. Now I'm trying to figure out what to do with them!

Question really is how long do these last, what will battery life be like.

Things you may not know but finding out after 12K miles

Front tires are almost done..
Alignments are $2500..

hmm, a bit snarky are we? the comment is in reference to the need to have the bumpers removed.
good luck with your repair adventures.

lol. not at all. i’m asking if anyone has been told something different from their dealer or had an alignment done. or if these statements are personal opinion.
