\\ Post Your Car vol. Been a minute //

So Hyundai today unveiled first photos of their newest EV, the Ioniq 6!! And it's GORGEOUS!! If I wasn't set on a Maverick truck, I'd wait for it to arrive and order one. It's that cool looking. Here are a few pics and the link to the reveal. The official reveal is on July 14th.

They say the drag coefficient is .21 which is insane. If this is not priced too high, it's not just a home run but a freaking grand slam. I'd take this well over a M3. And Hyundai said the may be doing a shooting brake model and an N version for performance fans. Cars aren't dead yet. 👍👍

Edit...Oh yeah, we aren't getting those mirrors. NHTSA is so far behind the rest of the world when it comes to new features/ideas on cars. The sideview camera/screen in the corner is great. But we'll never see it on a true production car (yes it's a available on the Speedtail but that's on Show & Display) anytime soon.
Love the Ioniq stuff even if they're not all my style. Love the chances they're taking and the idea that each model isn't just an iteration of each other. Ioniq 7 looks wild.

Yes, new car prices right now are INSANE.

IDK how this can keep up or if it will. How do they expect people to afford this stuff if wages aren't appropriately keeping up?
In a year or two cars will be on the market for dirt cheap after Repo/turn in's cause this isn't sustainable.
 
Spending is already down, but you're not seeing in the auto sector because most car salesmen are scum and will ride out this shortage as long as they can. Manipulating every buyer that walks through the door.

My neighbors house just sold for 2.4M. It ain't worth close to that. My friend who works at Citi in consumer debt told me that about 3-4 weeks ago they had to bring in a specialist due to increasing deliquencies on credit repayment. (Not quite defaulting yet, but trying to reorganize to avoid a possible mass default).

Take that info as you please, I think it's strange as-is that things are still selling wildly over MSRP when most brands already raised prices to account for inflation.

I would be fearful of the scenario where banks that loaned out 125% values get stuck with an overvalued asset/collateral that they have to sell for pennies. If banks go under again, I don't think we should bail them out. Let them rot and die, but let's hope it doesn't come to that.

That being said, here's a sweet pic of my Model S. I'd post my Y but you've all already seen a stock gray Y Performance. :lol:

Was bored, did a quick hackjob cause I wanted to see how gold rims would look on that wrap.

Not bad.

Are these credit cards or mortgages, car loans, personal loans, business loans etc?
 
Never in a million years did I think that keeping my lease longer than it was for, only because I couldn't get a 2022 Maverick, has made my leased car worth so much more than the buyout it's insane! 😮 Won't term it now. I'll buy it and sell it and could pocket some serious cash. Unreal, SMH!!

You might have to pay sales tax which seriously cuts into the profits. I have a hack for that though, sell it to a dealer that carries the brand. This bypasses most leasing companies new third party buyout ban.

I've seen an IG post from one of these car broker accounts, and they're selling an Acura MDX Type-S Tech for $1000/mo.

I cannot understand how people are willingly affording stuff like this.

Oh, if I buy it I know I'll have to pay sales tax. Either that or I'll just see if I can still trade it. See Ford has a stipulation in their leases that once you reach 120 days of term, you can't trade out of it. Either pay the last payments to end it early or ride it out.

Now I'm in a 12 month extension. Technically it's 12 months as listed on my sheet but it can end anytime. So if Ford says I can trade out of it, that's what I'll do. And just cut me the check for the difference between the lease buyout and what it's worth.
