Big difference from a Tesla for sure! Supra wasn't very family friendly. Kids were scared of it because it was too loud and it was very thirsty, I built it myself from a non turbo auto to a 6 speed GTE swap with a big single and stand alone, was making around 700 or so and it was a lot of fun but I never had much confidence to take it on long trips. I definitely miss it but I'm looking forward to the positives that a Tesla brings to the table.

Nice. I've had plenty of experience with those cars and they were fun. Unfortunately just so dated today.....
Black 94 6-spd TT: show winner, SP57 single. Custom suede & red stitched interior. (my fav)
White 94 6-spd TT: ex-Virtual Works car
Red 94 6-spd TT: 1300hp 1/4 car 3.4L stroker w/all goodies & chute

Traded in my 2012 Dodge Challenger R/T Classic. Beautiful, fun car but getting to the point where it'll start needing repairs.

I sold my 2012 BMW X5 with 84k miles for a Dual Motor. Was tired of the recalls, leaking gaskets, failed water pumps, and cracked expansion tanks.
Also sold my 2011 335is convertible for the same reason. I was a BMW guy for decades, just tired of the constant leaky greasy mess! Looking forward to following the EV industry and watching the growth over the next couple of years.

2013 6MT Audi S4 (dual pulley) to 2019 P3D+. I wonder if I’ll missing rowing gears in a couple months. It’s the first time in 15 years there isn’t an Audi in the garage. I thought for months I’d be getting an Audi RS3, but went with the Tesla instead. I feel the biggest thing missing with the Tesla is CarPlay. I was really looking forward to integrated Waze... maybe in some future update...

A little different experience..
I was telling my wife about all the advantages of EVs and she said that if they sold a 2 seater convertible one she'd get one. I told her "they do", it just costs $250,000.
Honestly though if they could make a smallish convertible I think they'd poach a lot of sales from both the 911 type buyers and the Miata buyers. Unfortunately that doesn’t appear to be on their roadmap.

Honestly id mazda or tesla made an affordable convertible (SR+ specs etc) I'd be in for it. Half tempted to convert the mx5 but that doesnt make any real sense..
