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.

My compliments to the camera work in this video! I don't remember ever seeing in-car shots in a KZread video this good looking. 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.

Watching this car review as a car enthusiast was the most refreshing experience ever. Seeing Alex so excited about this car and talking about it as a normal person instead of being some pompous who gets to drive ridiculously expensive cars all the time made this the best car review ever. Thank you so much for this!
