by the time you're looking at $100k+ cars, you've moved into "want" territory, not "need". some people want a car that can give them a massage. some people want a car that can go 200 mph, even if they'll never do it personally.
> And honestly, the companies can claim that all they want. Pretty much no one is going to test it themselves.
uhh, people are definitely going to verify a claimed top speed of 200 mph lol. give the car reviewers a few months to get their hands on one.
- Broken_Hippo 3y agoSure, it is obviously a want. That they won't realistically use, even in an emergency. Most roads aren't built for this speed nor are the buyers trained in it. They aren't being sold for racing. Few are going to go to a proper place to test it. Car reviewers, sure - on a closed road that has a proper surface or on a track. Most owners aren't going to do this.
- leetcrew 3y agoI agree it doesn't really make sense, but I guess I don't understand what the problem is. not every purchase in life has to be made based on the output of a spreadsheet. as long as they don't actually drive 200 mph on public roads, why care? I worry a lot more about the clapped out sentras in my area.
