Honda Fit wasn't around in the early 2000s in our markets

and how much does a Fit cost? maybe a 1/4 of the 3? Stop comparing Tesla to the likes of Honda, of which are still assembled at a much higher standard ...sure they've had various (gamebreaking) design flaws but they didn't become the most prominent motor company by building garbage, anyways the benchmark for TSLA should be Lexus/BMW ffs

the issues i brought up are not just some one off example, it's not some collective conspiracy from reviewers, tsla was building vehicles in dirty, exposed environments and pulling crazy hours to meet quota...shitty builds are just the growing pains of a new and unconventional manufacturer, at least they seem to be really making the effort to improve things

yes there's more scrutiny from the public, but let me know which other 'hot cars' had awful builds as widespread as the 3

the new Leaf has already been detailed in the US, they'll be available weeks after the base 3...at least they didn't have to hype it for 3 years to deliver

if sales number are the only thing that matters, we'll only be driving Corollas. TSLA sells because of tremendously successful marketing, paradoxically by the lack thereof. Space X, calling rescue divers pedos, getting into fraud troubles with SEC, etc. They're some very desirable aspects of TSLA like the tech, the performance, but only some of the blind fans will say build quality and reliability on the whole is acceptable
