Don’t know why this is being downvoted. I really wanted to get a BMW. The total price itself was no issue for me at all, but I just couldn’t justify paying a premium for a car that in parts feels bad. The software stack is horrible.
Got a Skoda instead. Its software is also horrible but at least it was a bargain.
- littlestymaar 2y agoSoftware being bad in a car is not nice, but it's not as bad as having reliability issue on the car pieces itself, like Tesla has.
- bryanlarsen 2y agoTesla consistently ranks middle of the pack in unbiased reliability rankings. Given that an electric car has ~10% of the moving parts as an ICE, middle of the pack is pretty bad, but from a customer perspective middle of the pack isn't bad.
- littlestymaar 2y agoIt's not middle of the pack in price either. I remember seeing this survey where Telsa was right next to Dacia in terms of reliability despite the very different price tag.
- bryanlarsen 2y agoI'm in North America, so the Model 3 is one of the cheapest available EV's. No Dacia, no Chinese EV's. AFAICT, only the Leaf & Equinox are cheaper.
- giva 2y agoAs long as it supports Android auto/car play and has physical control for important stuff, I (and most people I know) don't care about software. It will be obsolete in a few years anyway.
