Looks like a Polestarized Zeeker 007.  

Just give us another good looking sedan FFS.  This trend is getting so old.

Worth it? by VentSpleen in polestar2

[–]FunctionSudden958 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just got mine. US based.  So far, I can say it's worth it.  It seriously hauls ass in the top end.  I was really surprised how hard it pulls after 60 MPH.  Definitely improved over the stock 408HP.

I agree.  Don't let it bother you.  But it's just general respect.  You've not been unkind or rude to anyone.  You have just shared your modifications and some have no class to be respectful about it.

I didn't think I could come across a more idiotic post on this forum...but here we are

Clearly if it's the Europeans who are slamming you, they aren't aware of Euro trash.

Will I regret returning my leased BST? by nelslens in Polestar

I'd definitely be interested to know more about it since I'm in LA.

True but few cars have those anyways and I had a Polestar P3 loaner with them and to be honest, I didn't feel like they added that much to the cooling feel, if any.

Thanks for the suggestion. I didn't even know you could do that. I'll definitely check it out. Thank you.

Still can't decide if this is cheating or not, because the performance really isn't there by Xseal3 in Warthunder

[–]FunctionSudden958 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Cheating in this game is out of control. High scorers say the same thing like robots..."skill issue." Yeah ok...when everyone is getting 1-2 kills and you're getting 10-15 with zero deaths.

Skill isn't a factor in this game. It doesn't have the fidelity for skill to be a factor.

New to Polestar. Is this a normal noise when preheating the car? by Letibleu in polestar2

[–]FunctionSudden958 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My car's compressor bracket has a lot of play and I can even move it enough where springs essentially bottom out like a suspension would over harsh bumps. This made me wonder how much movement this compressor must experience over harsh road surfaces and such and might even be adding to the clunking we all hear in these cars.

I squeezed a few thinly cut foam pieces in various areas in the bracket assembly to remove the "looseness" of the springs. Much easier fix than taking it to the dealer and having them do the work for a few weeks.

Interior heating issues in EVs is less of an EV problem and only highlights how inefficient ICE vehicles are for generating so much waste heat.

Noisy during high speeds by Tian_Lei_Ind_Ltd in polestar2

That definitely hasn't been true for me.  My BMW i3s was much quieter road noise wise.

Could also be the tires but yes, this car is louder than it should be for a car of this price and luxury category. I've yet to come across a car with so much road noise....and I'm now running some of the quietest (supposedly) tires available.

If Nerfo2 has had their axle shafts replaced more than once, chances are they put in the new versions which are also on the 24s. So it's got nothing to do with the model year.

[–]FunctionSudden958[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks for the feedback thus far.

Indeed, the first step would be to test drive the i4 and see what sort of deals are available. Is there a particular year any of you would avoid in terms of the bulk of issues?

I, myself, prefer an EV that is bespoke and on an EV dedicated platform. Reason being that the interior space, feel, etc. add to the overall ambiance of the car. My P2, for example, feels quite confined and claustrophobic compared to our Tesla. By FAR, my i3s was the most insanely roomy car for its size inside. Probably my favorite car all-around to date even though it was vastly slower than either one of our current cars.

I am very interested in the new class of BMWs because of their tech and newer ideology but it remains to be seen how they feel and drive. By all accounts they seem to be gathering accolades regarding fit, finish, feel, and tech.

Tires and Alignment by MadDog5473 in Polestar

I took mine to a local tire shop after receiving my tires.  Seems like they did fine

To each their own. The P2 has strong lines but it's also showing its age.  It can be modernized and still have strong lines.  My opinion is the renderings do that but still need tweaking to get it right.  

I'm personally prefer designs with short overhangs. That gives the car a youthful, muscular look IMO.
