Those are supercars, not luxury cars. Teslas are neither.

Ok then what about Ford era Jaguars?
Able to play steam games is a byproduct of the hardware it runs. it has an AMD proccesor and 16 gigs of ram.
playing games on the ferry, when charging, or on a hot day if your house does not have AC seems like a a great idea to me.

Most car enthusiasts are trying to hold on to a more tactile and interactive experience; Tesla is literally trying to make the cars drive themselves, removing us from the experience for good.
Its not comfortable enough to be a serious GT (nor does it have the friggin legs for that matter when you have to sit at some stupid charging station for 20-30 minutes every 500-600kms)
Its not luxurious enough to rival that of a Bentley or a Rolls, or even a higher end BMW/Mercedes/Lexus/Genesis/etc/etc
It doesnt have the clot to be a supercar, you arent going to score any gold diggers in your lousy tesla especially when half of them are being driven by fantuan delivery idiots.
its only meant to be a good practical city car for people who hates cars and driving in general. count me out. the car has no soul.. its an empty husk of a car much like its so called creator / ceo.

Bentley and Rolls Royce are old money and Tesla is new money.
If you want to talk about useless bullshit. Who needs a picnic basket, wine glasses, or umbrellas in a rear doors.
My dad says he will never buy a gas car again. He also owns a Mercedes Sl350 and Bought a brand new Pontiac Trans AM with a 6.6 litre engine in 79. Had about the same horsepower as my Civic hatch with a b18.
He does not hate cars.
My sister lives in Vancouver but works in Squamish and drives to Whistler on a regular basis. She drives a Model Y.
The internal combustion engine has maxed out there is no where for it to go. You have a 3 cylinder in the GR corolla making 30 HP and modified 4 cylinder engines making 1000 HP.
Tesla and electric cars are good for the enthusiast community. You have a lot of people in the car community that care how a car drives and just want a car that looks cool. In the future gas cars are not going to be cool. Just like vinyl was not cool when CD's and CD players became reasonably priced. Who is going to want to buy a gas guzzler when you can buy a used electric car for 20K.
