Oh man, EV drag race protip right there. Just move to Pikes Peak and you'll win more.

It's not so much the burnout that I enjoy (I'd rather not keep buying tires πŸ˜…) as sustained actual acceleration. Which means ideally two powered axles for traction, and at least from what I've read it's hard to beat a model 3 performance for the price. Especially since it comes under the cap for a $7500 tax credit.

I normally wouldn't but figured in context it made sense. But tbf they're similar 0-60 times at least. I'm sure the rest of the handling is significantly better in the BMW, as well as quality, but I'm at 100k miles on my C63 and ready for some lower maintenance fun at this point. Until I can afford a 3 car garage and lift, or something, which probably isn't for a while.

I'm very much in the market at the moment but I've not seen the other options in the price range with what appeals to me the most: the quickness and fun to drive aspect. Are there actually others comparable to say an m3 performance?

Trump didn't have much to with that aside from a few people copying his MO. There were structures in place and a few people following his playbook have rapidly gained enough influence to completely gum up the works.

Full blown tragedy of the commons.

How much you want for it?

You're right though, should have just said rich business owners.

You don't understand clearly.

White business owners need those planes to make their sales calls. The money generated by those sales trickles down to...

*checks notes*

Other white business owners?

I actually protest Reddit so hard I don't read any more so I don't even say "I read it."

That's just the default location for what it's worth. You can move GOPATH wherever you want.

Don't worry, they will repopulate the earth with their billionaire genius genes once we all die and they return on their rockets and emerge from their sweet underground bunkers.
