    Doesnt matter. Do people really do no research before spending so much on a car?

      absolutely, there are so many folks I have to warn about ‘problem models’. Stuff you could learn yourself just by googling the model of the car + ‘problems’

      Probably not. The brand reputation could be best summed up as sect.

      While the car might be reliable but they are objectively anti-right to repair causing issues for the consumer and they need to build dozens before being reliable:

      With VW you can get (most) software, order VW parts overnight or OEM and third-party parts within 2-3 days. At the same time, I hear that some Tesla repairs take months and workshops are 1-2 hours drive away …

      Build quality is clearly not a strong point of Tesla. If you wouldn’t know one might suspect the car had an accident before (gap dimensions all over the place). I think Tesla is also the only car where it is strongly recommended to perform wheel alignment on a new car.
