I'm with those who say depends on how it looks, but I'd add how it handles. The weight will be an issue for handling until batteries get lighter, but electric cars do have low centre of gravity, just...

Same here!

I had a 2SS and now a 2SS 1lE, and there is a world of difference in daily driving. The two suspensions behave differently not just at 10/10 but at most dynamic situations. It's true...

Almost bought one exactly like that back in the day... with the Corvette hood scoop like the pic and a "6-pack" underneath it, except it was white.

I largely agree, but you have to do your marketing around significant product announcements, which are mostly past for the gen 6.

I had a 2SS A8 with MRC & NPP which I DD'ed... just traded it in for a 2SS 1LE and couldn't be happier! I have no issues using it as daily... but I don't have to commute very far.

5th gen 19s are x8 offset +38, 20s fronts are also x8 offset +35.

5th gen rims fit ok but tires will tub against front suspension.
