“Whether you hate me, like me or are indifferent, do you want the best car, or do you not want the best car?” [Apartheid Manchild] told audiences at an event in November.

Well, for starters I don’t want a car at all. I’d rather use public transit. You know, an actually effective means of reducing emissions.

If I were in the market, yes, I would want the best car. Which is why I’d never buy a Tesla. I’d buy an XPeng or a BYD or the like.

    Because price point.

    I can get the top of the line BYD performance sedan for less than half the price of the Tesla and Kia dont do a 500hp sedan.

      I think they were joking with the Kia. They’ve implied that the Tesla is so bad, even a Kia is better.

        I know it’s off topic but Kia make awesome electric cars. Kia/Hyundai are easily better than Tesla in most areas that really matter.
