But they do! :)

Polestar just ran a $25k discount on the Polestar 3 over the last two months.

And I had a $20k preorder discount on my R1T.

The key is to be better at bargain hunting than the next guy, so that you can stay ahead of the depreciation curve!

Well, perhaps you should put your world-class negotiation skills to use by telling Carney to step aside and overcome Trump’s whack-a-mole economics and political policies.

needa bigger vehicle: should i trade my small ICE in for a depreciated EV?

or sell it then lease one; are dealers trying to move volume as the US tax credit is expiring? does that impact our market quite a bit?

ex30 left such great driving impression; does anything else drive like it? maybe just slightly bigger haha

I don't think it's all that world-class when the discounts are advertised right on the manufacturer's website :p. Just gotta keep an eye out.

I checked out how much a base RDX goes for and because of incentives you can get one for $63k all in - just $2k more - yikes to the CR-V's pricing.

Isn't that the right way to do it? Small overlap so when you are getting a loaded CRV, you'd think oh I'll get a RDX instead. But a base RDX is going to be missing some niceties and they'll want to spend even more.

That just a little bit mindset is hard to beat, that's how I ended up in a M3

That's still $40k in depreciation, you just only had to eat $5k of it thanks to the discounts.

Is the Lotus too small? :troll:

that's staying i think
no longer have the ability to keep two 2-seaters tho lol

This (to me) depends on:
1. How much you plan on using this vehicle per year
2. Whether you can charge at home to cover your everyday use
3. How long you plan to keep the vehicle

We don't get the aggressive incentives that the US enjoys, so don't expect to get those crazy lease deals you see on TikTok / Reels. I think the only exception we got here is/was the 500e.

What did you enjoy from the EX30's driving impression? If it's acceleration, I think the Model Y Performance is the next closest thing in Canada, or an EV6 GT that I've seen hovering around $50k.

Wait, don't you also have a Miata? :lawl:

Don't you mean S2000?

Wait, so now he has a Lotus, Miata, and S2000? And a crap load of other cars? Ballin! :ahwow:

He probably differed his property taxes!!

LOL! Does that mean he's poor? :troll:

Polestar 2 big enough? You can even option these with Ohlins.

There was a $15k incentive on these (in Canada, not in the US):

It ended 2 weeks ago, but it might come back, given that the PS3 $25k incentive is back again.

Alright guys, by some miracle, I sold another Ioniq 5 N, now he is asking about PPF and Ceramic, I have no idea what I am talking about, I do know the owner of Speed Projects Laboratory

But is there anyone else you guys swear by or what not?

^ PS2 i like liftback like i4 and model S
isn't it FWD and tariffed 100% because MiC?

looks like refresh went RWD-based

1. not much, putt around town
2. 95% will be at-home
3. never had EV so dunno; probably aim for 5 yrs?

never tried 3.3s 0-60 vehicle on SWB, i'm like damn now i see why chinese EV's are sucha hit; lack of HUD was a dumb choice to me though

Don't you have some dealer lot boy ppf ceramic coat installer?

Id only recommend an EV if you have regular access to charging. What's your budget?

Used EVs seem to be the best value right now. Bmw i4, vw id4, mach e, polestar 2, tesla model 3/y, chevrolet bolt, etc. All of these can be had for mid 30s to 40 except for the Bmw i4. Wouldn't recommend the Hyundai or kia evs because of the ICCU issues which is too bad because they do seem like nice cars.

Damn if I can get a 2WD PS2 for just Cdn $15k, I'd be trading my shxtbox in the blink of an eye!

RDI Detailing near Ironwood is not too far from the auto mall. The dude charges a premium but does a good job.
