Still think my mk7 sportwagen was best vw. Such a good chassis and that ea888 was quite stout. Only problem was that crappy dsg / leaky pano roof and potential unreliability. Otherwise I would have just bought it out.

The only good thing is if you want Euro and Highlander sized 7 seat for 45k. The Highlander is a better choice though.

I don't get why people like Audi, the seats are so uncomfortable, drove around in a q5 s line. The seats are so hard like I'm sitting in a wooden chair. Not really a fan of the interior layout either. Worse than bmw sport seats.

Only comfortable in the X3M with the non-Sport bucket seats (whatever they're called). I fit VAG seats much better - whether it's a GTI, S5/RS5/TT whatever, or a Porsche Cayman/Taycan/911 - all feels comfortable to me. Different body shapes I guess.
Also, hard is better for long road trips, you get more support. I do like my mattresses firm as well, but not Seahorse firm.

Just noticed a bunch of Long Range Model 3s in inventory are on sale - perhaps they're clearing them out to make room for the Shanghai models? https://www.tesla.com/en_CA/inventor...w1k9&range=200 | |

Decent deal if you're able to utilize all the EV rebates, $62 grand out the door after taxes and rebates
Also the refreshed model 3 is just around the corner too, I believe for a fall release.
EDIT: Big correction
The Long range Model 3 does NOT qualify for the provincial rebate because the MSRP is more than $55,000
So out the door price would be $66,000 roughly

The Model S / X's are also $10k off with 3 years of free charging - seems decent at that price range given their tech / performance.

Drove the Polestar 2 at the Surrey activation today. Performance pack, RS'er was my test drive host. Thing is nuts, and I took my mother on the test drive. She approved.

Friend in the past few months inquired about getting a new rav4 prime. Salesperson said 5 year wait and they take $1000 as deposit. Do dealerships give interest for holding your money that long?

With the single motor cars at least, the facelifted model is a lot better, having quite a power bump as well as being RWD (instead of FWD).

Based on the conversation I had with PotenzaEight during the test drive, Tesla owners don't find the Polestar "digital" enough, and that unless people know, they're going to miss out on the 2024 update.
I'm not going to be buying for a year or so, so I'm hoping for additional updates, or adapting NACS.

Potentially looking for a new daily. This Corolla Hybrid is asking $45,800. https://www.facebook.com/marketplace...ibextid=6ojiHh
Isn’t a Model 3 SR for $49k a no brainer?
