      Yeah, I think most people think that people who own a porsche have more money than they actually do. I live right near a track that's owned by the local german car dealers, and have friends that work there. Most new sports cars under $150k are aspirational purchases by middle age people who have done well for themselves and saved their pennies after paying off their mortgage. They aren't nearly as wealthy as people think.

    The "spaceship" is also a thing is other European electric cars. The more pedestrian Renault Zoe (sadly not available in North America) you can even hear the sound on the outside of the car, which works pretty well in addressing the problem of EV's being to quiet to be noticed by ear by pedestrians and cyclists.

    An important thing to remember about coefficient of drag, is that it is a ratio of drag force to surface area. So sometimes you will hear "this has less drag than a prius" about a sports car. The CD might be lower, but usually due to larger overall frontal area, total drag force is NOT lower.

    11:58 It anticipated you switching into reverse when you stopped and sharply turned your steering wheel, and it automatically turned on your backup cam. That's pretty smart.
    Edit: I was informed it was the front camera until he actually changed to reverse gear. Must've been proximity sensors detecting the fence.

    I love that cars are evolving but why does every tiny thing have to be over-engineered or unnecessarily electronically controlled?
    Why are door handles and climate controls reinvented in new cars? They are very basic BUT crucial parts of utilising a car and seem with every new E-car to be completely un-user friendly.
