part of the Auto-race feature. You turn that off in the infotainment by selecting all the images that contain "ships" to confirm your humanity after the "are you sure you want to disengage the auto-race feature?"

That’s absolutely wild haha.

Lucid seems like a pretty solid EV package, aside from the horribly ugly rear end design. I would be pretty put off by a vehicle that accelerates with no accelerator input though.

That was a Toyota feature a while back wasn't it?

Sounds kind of like Musks vision of how a Tesla will just “know” whether it should be in forward or reverse.

Kinda spotted. Took it for a test drive.

Attachment 119050

Basically a nicer more well thought out and better built Model S. 860hp version, 0-100 is def fast as fuck. 60-120 felt fast but not the fastest car I’ve driven. 1200hp version would be fun. Too much Vancouver traffic to get any taste of cornering limits.

It’s buggy tho (imo) but could be as designed? Launch control acceleration doesn’t stop when I lifted the throttle. Bit of a wtf. Didn’t stop accelerating till I hammered the brakes. Caught me off guard a little.

This might be the reason...

Need some gold rims to finish the Ironman look.

[heavyD]

The gold trim is a curious choice. I just don't think it works on cars or SUV's. Maybe gold wheels would help.

I’m pretty sure the XM is just a giant troll against the people who buy them.

Like a giant kick me sign that people pay a quarter million dollars to wear.

Not enough space between tire and fender.

I think those are (horribly designed) black flares that make it worse.

As much as I hate to admit it, I think the XM is pretty cool. Much better in person, IMO.

Not how I'd spend my $250k, but it's marginally less douchey than an Urus I guess?

And dramatically slower.

That’s the real issue, is it’s somehow stupid looking and a worse performance car than an X5M.

Yeah the only reason to buy one of these over an X5M is the aesthetic. Which is obviously polarizing.

"Polarizing" is very diplomatic.

Like a 400lb chick in a thong bikini is "polarizing".

I can't come up with a rational reason to buy an XM... It probably doesn't crack the top 5 reasons by any metric that someone would buy a car.

Indeed. But there's still people out there that like it, despite the fact that it's nausea inducing for most.

Excellent comparison. haha

[killramos]

Do they like it?

Are they paid to like it?

Do they just like that it’s expensive?
