Obviously not a niche for you then! Jesus, if a car company makes a vehicle that doesn't suit your lifestyle, then it's automatically worthless. It's like comparing an 3er to a Z4, and saying well people should buy the 3er because it has a proper trunk and seats 5 people.

If it was such a worthless car, how come they've already filled the order for the first year? I'm not saying if I had $135k burning in my pocket this is the car I'd go for, but I certainly understand why it's there.

Apart from a Tesla (which is a heavy sedan, so kiwis to papayas again), what electric sports car can you get for $135k?
