buzz is still 1k a month even with discounts and no federal incentives. Inside is still plasticky as fuck and shitty range.

Thru the instant messaging apps grapevine, apparently BYD will start setting up shop at the old Dodge/Chrysler dealership between No. 3 and Minoru in March, with a target opening time by April / May.

I'd still stand by what I've said in the past about Chinese branded EVs -- they'll need to prove themselves in terms of medium term reliability as well as service and parts support. Until then, I would not consider them as potential purchases at all.

Done. paper signed, pick up Sat. Blue color.

Good points

Subaru Solterra - "The Subaru Solterra EV is the product of a co-development with Toyota (bZ4X)"

So if they put ALL specs onto the Toyota (AA + EV charging location) then it would kill off Subaru, so I guess they all stay on their side of the fence and go on from there.

OHHHHH and yes the thing i hateeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee is there is no memory seat.. i hate it when my wife sits like 2 cm from the wheel.... short asians....LOL

As for BYD - I soooooooo wanted to get it. THe only issue is that Tesla has been so sosososo sgood with their rental cars / replacements... the only issue with Tesla is still a 10-20 week replacement. If Telsa can't get stock with a 10 yr distribution, i can't see how BYD will do any better.

BYD was in Montreal since 2018
Press Release: BYD to Deliver First Electric Buses to Montreal and Longueuil

VICTORIA, BC, August 6, 2018 – BYD (Build Your Dreams) Canada has been awarded orders for nine long range, zero emission, battery-electric buses by the Société de transport de Montréal (STM) and the Réseau de transport de Longueuil (RTL).

It was totally CRAP show.. trying to get an axel took 6 months and they can't get that together. I don't know why.... so unless its gts SUPERB distribution, i can't support BYD / Xiaomi cars yet.

RIP 6793026

You just made a terrible life decision.

KEKW congrats brother! KEKW
youre inner chinaman must be celebrating like CNY. such a good deal :alonehappy:

Wait so did you get the Subaru Soltera, or the Toyota bZ?

did you ask negotiate for additional discounts?

I got the BZ. i got an employee toyota discount (not sure if that's legit or not) REGARDLESS... it knocked off 2000. Now i was going to get the FWD which was 380 range, but they pegged by AWD which was above the rebate, so either they do a shady thing and pegged it lower or whatever.

They did us a solid in doing that so i'm happy. 0.99% with zero down. COME ONNNN.. i had cash ready... but if i put it in GIC for 3 yrs, then hell with it.. i'll make money to pay for the 0.99%

I know i will forever had no memory seat... so we'll see.

the guy at openroad toyota gave me 2k without even asking for further discount. so 2k from openroad, 4k from toyota, and 5k from mark clowny. Im sure they could give you 3k if you fight them like bumjeet Cheapjinder.

BYD export price is very high.
Seal is 45k USD+ in EU and Australia

Why am I predicting a for sale thread in two years? :badpokerface:

Well played!! And +1 on the 0.9% financing. Even net of capital gains tax, you're better off investing your cash in almost anything else.

Curious to know how well the kid's car seat fits (esp if you've moved on to a convertible seat by now)?

Only way to know is to go to a dealership with your kid's car seat. And if it fits, buy it. :troll:

me for the last few months: FUCK TOYOTA, FUCKING TRASH!! garbage brand, ill never buy another toyota again

24h ago: HEY GAYS i almost bought a toyota BZ!!! everyone go buy one!!!!

gays: makes a lot of sense.... :accepted:
