Life before your S

[Slow2k]

What car(s) did you guys have before your model S? I had a 2019 Range Rover Evoque. Still have the s2000

 

[Simon_Emes]

All Merc, GLE and E class. Doesn't interest me at all anylonger...

 

[BlueOvalFan]

Sold it a few years back; 2006 Dodge Charger SRT8 - Modified 500hp street machine, wicked fun to drive. Handled much better than my MS.

 

[tranzndance]

Honda Accord coupe 2004

Chevy Impala LTZ. Still have it. Insurance is about half of what I pay for the T.
It was roughly $300/month for gasoline compared to about $100/month to charge. (2000+ miles per month before COVID-19 lockdowns. Commute can be measured in feet instead of miles now.)

Mercedes ML320, ML350, E350

S2K! Nice man! I still love those.

Had a W211 E500 4matic wagon - LOVED it. Sold after 190K reliable miles. The only products they offer that interest me currently are the AMG GTS/R & E63S wagon. A bad-ass electric AMG wagon would be great.

Lexus LS600hL... The flagship of Lexus! I do miss some of the features of that car, but wouldn't go back...

99 Lexus GS400 - still trying to sell it! Nobody seems to want a clean, low mileage (just under 100K miles) modified car.

Actually did one with all the vehicles I've owned. Now all I have is these S and Q7. Cyber truck on preorder.

Bought this car sight unseen. Found out about it through a car and driver article and was ready for a little hot hatch. Not a lot of power but sure was fun to drive with the right amount of throttle. From factory, 6pd, recaro race seats, lowered suspension, turbo.

Panamera LED headlight pods - nice! Recently sold my Panamera Turbo.

Thanks! Wow your Panamera is just stunning. I guess it was a step down in terms of most things to Model S from that car. What do you like better about the Model S compared to that beauty? I personally would never go back to ICE, but that Panamera Turbo is one fine automobile!

2001 VW Golf TDI (moderately modified) 300K miles old and the last manny tranny in my garage
2006 Chevy Silverado 2500HD Duramax
2007 Lexus Rx400h
2013 Fiat 500e


We gave the Lexus to my sister-in-law since she plans to start a family soon; she sold her Mazdaspeed3 and is happy with the upgrade. We still have the other vehicles, though they only get driven for special purposes. The Fiat is excellent for local errands and parking in tight spaces (like any holiday in our coastal town). TDI when I want to have fun driving stick with a Torsen, also makes a good road-trip alternative if Superchargers are going to be busy; I get up to 720 miles on a single tank of fuel. Duramax for towing/hauling and a new found love for overlanding (I just wish it had a rear independent suspension system).

Well,

among some "oldies" still have this one

And I had this fuel rocket before purchasing the electric rocket

 

[powaking]

Had a Mazda Tribute until the engine let go at 241,000 miles. Skipped along with the Nissan Quest minivan until I traded that in for my S. Wife drives a Q7 TDI now.

 

[aerodyne]

'95 Integra GS-R. Orig owner. Stock, 458k miles. Still have it as a trash hauler....until my Cybertruck comes in...

 

[2101Guy]

Benzes, BMW's. Sold the E55 and miss it. Fast, brutal acceleration, big V8 with a blower. Great interior materials, etc.
Still have the 1991 560. Only 67k miles. Refurbished it last year. Excellent condition. Im second owner. Most things original (including paint).

 

[dabbler]

Last new car was the Range Rover Evoque. Sold her with 45K miles. Terrible fuel mileage. Moved onto a Mini Cooper Clubman. More like a go-kart with a nice body and sporty interior. Pretty harsh ride. As soon as the CPO Telsas became available, I jumped on a Model S 85 with 45K miles.

I do still have fun with my Vixen 21TD motor home. This thing is a blast to drive and take to car shows or camping.
