Agree. Kindig (bitchin' rides show) redid a bus and it sold at auction in '17 for $302k, so there's definitely money out there for them stock or modded.

I liked the Datsun Z that Kindig did, their builds do bring some serious money.

Subaru has axed the Sti on the current platform as an ICE setup. Any future STi may come as an EV in the future if it comes at all. So many people were waiting for the Sti to follow the current WRX release but that appears to have been axed as of this week.

That's very sudden.

Especially from a company that has been very late to the EV game.

On a related Subaru note looks like the 22 WRX's are coming to dealers in my area. My dealer has 5 listed that are in transit they are all premium versions and none have prices. Another dealer has a 22 premium listed for 34,9 which wasn't as high as I thought it would be. Another dealer has a 22 premium for 33,8.

I would consider trading my 2019 in on a new model but I keep scratching my head trying to figure out what I would be gaining. My 2019 has the same power levels, and I believe it is more fuel efficient too. There must be something on the new models that should make it worth upgrading, I think I need to drive one to find out what has improved.

Yeah I need to see one in person I'm not too crazy about the way they look in pictures. Two factors that would make me consider trading up is my powertrain warranty running out and if it starts to rust. Depends on what the money comes down to and then I would decide whether it is worth it or not.

Have we talked about the Lucid Air?

I love the styling that looks great while boasting the lowest drag coefficient among production passenger vehicles. I love that it is quicker than most Teslas and handles better than any of them, and exhibits build quality Tesla can only dream about.

Speaking of dreams, the Dream Edition does cost more than a well equipped S-class and the software is still half baked. (The hardware is there for self driving but the software doesn't even support intelligent cruise control yet.) And Lucid is still something of an unknown quantity when it comes to reliability and support. But then so was Tesla once. The Lucid is fast (really fast), luxurious, efficient, roomy, and practical. So other than the price, what's not to like?

Here's Hagerty's take, with a surprise guest appearance by a couple other of my favorite YouTube content providers.
