It will be very fast, but… idk, to me this car was all about a manual transmission and winding out the gears. I imagine that on a track it will please, but on the road I don’t know what the point of this car will be, except to show off the badge. I may be completely, terribly wrong, but I’m struggling to imagine it being fun. And I struggle to imagine why I would say to myself, let’s go for a drive to nowhere just for the fun of driving.

Not like this hasn’t been said a billion times, but I think I have come to realize like so many others that the fun of driving really did revolve around a manual transmission and an ice engine.

I don’t think I would ever drive this (or any electric) just for the fun of it. There are even a few guys I know who ride their lawn mower for fun ha ha… electric is going to kill all that and I’m sure something else will take it’s place, but do I need a $90k electric cayman?

Idk about that.
I couldn't have said it better myself.
