The higher purchasing cost and complex hybrid tech with heavy battery pack and substantial extra wiring make a hybrid just as much a bad choice as EV.

I don’t know brother. I love my Lexus hybrid. It gets 40 miles to the gallon. It’s every bit as comfortable as any other Lexus but more efficient. And the electric side of it makes it get up and go pretty good for a four-cylinder. Nothing compared to my M5 of course but it’s not Purposed for that. It’s also important to know I’ll get rid of it at the end of the warranty.

Agree..

ICE not complex relatively reliable easier to fix by local mechanic not as costly to buy

EV not complex overall reliability data unclear local mechanic no chance and costly to buy

HYBRID Complex not reliable as has 2 drivetrains so plenty to go wrong and costly to buy.

the only and the most devastating advantage hybrid have over an ev in a 2035lmaoo scenario is that I don't need to change my habits ie don't plug in if I don't want to.

True, but under the new, stricter emissions regulations everybody passing like crazy, it has become increasingly challenging to make internal combustion engines comply without the assistance of electric motors. Just take a look at the EURO-7 fiasco.

Isn't it funny that everyone's enemy no 1 is carbon dioxide.
bloody hilarious if we didn't have to put up with idiotic mandates and raised taxes and increased prices at the pumps and for every known food/ utility product. And it seems like its just the start of the slope.

Haha...won't be long before we all need to carry around a carbon capture device to breathe out of. If you're rich you are exempt from that and have the option of buying carbon offsets by planting fictional trees in a fictional forest in Guatemala.

If you are that drawn to fast performance cars, and can afford virtually anything you want, why not just write a check and buy the Plaid today?

If the plan is to have the Z06 for 2 or 3 years, then get the Plaid afterwards, why do you have, and have had, a Plaid "on order" for the past 6+ months? Is your Boy Elon personally holding production of your Plaid for three years or more while you have the Z06?

Your BS just makes no sense.

Lmaoooo....o

I’m still in a model 3 lease. My gf wants it and I wanna transfer it to her name. Her credit sucks. Guess that’s what happens when you fuck with a 25 year old. Im not giving her the car while keeping it under my name.

I want the z06 first. Money isn’t the issue. Space is. There’s 5 cars in my driveway now. Adding a plaid will make it 6. I wanna keep my c7z but if I have to get rid of it to make room for the new z06 I’ll do that.

Trust me I don’t need to pretend to get cars to impress random ass dudes on a bimmerforum lmaooool

At least you know how capable a plaid is. Fastest production car for the average man, period.

Lmaoooooooo

They ditched a possibility of a 6.3 engine for the c8, maybe for a grand sport for that reason.

No desire and emissions kicking everyone’s ass.

Can’t wait for an all electric c9!!!!

Hey, come on at least he claims to be telling the truth: he doesn’t pretend to order/buy cars for internet clout. In reality he’s doing it to impress 25 year olds with bad credit. A true class act.

Or more the reality. Having the carbon offset taken from the less rich. "You peasants don't need to breath as much. Just hold your breath once every few seconds and you'll be fine."

It certainly won't be in his imaginary Model S Plaid(supposedly on order since last year). Current Plaid delivery estimate is one week for new order.
