“that may be true from a distance, but the fit and finish issues with those cars are myriad and not even close to what we’ve come to expect from Honda and Toyota:”
The Japanese cars are pieces of crap next to a Tesla. You are either Japanese, or you need to visit your Optometrist. There are dozens of them here where I live ( just over the hill from the Tesla Plant) so I am able to look at them up close every day. Also, was just in McCarran, NV (my family’s business supports the construction of the new Tesla battery plant there). Musk has made a huge bet there, with 3 million square feet of mfg space complete, and the build out to be something on the order of 12 million sf.
“You are either Japanese, or you need to visit your Optometrist”
you’re insulting the wrong person; all i did was post a link with over a half million hits about Tesla owners complaining about fit and finish: you need to log onto all of those links and insult all of those people instead, explaining to them how they must be Japanese or blind.
Most people bashing Teslas have never driven one.
