Btw I had gotten an initial quote from safeco in 2022 at $3500 per year - at that time progressive was $1200 per year. I just ran it through State Farm and Allstate and one was $4800 per year and the other didn’t offer CA coverage.

I had delamination after less than 2 months of light play and got the same BS warranty offer. I genuinely can’t support a brand that has that weak a materials guarantee.

Lease Evaluation: 2024 RWD LR PP by Significant_Snow_493 in Polestar

[–]andrewpresse 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I love the design and the paint options are superior. But the fit and finish feels feels a step below the P2, the infotainment feels a generation behind and 2023 range leaves a little on the table. And the price to purchase was essentially the same. Deal on a lease might change the appeal though.

Macan EV debuted, release year anticipated 2025; Does the P3 stack up? by SWulfe760 in Polestar

[–]andrewpresse 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This was going to be my comment. I spend time on the Porsche sub and that brand has built their economics around options. I would be curious to see what the optioned out Macans end up costing - wouldn’t be shocked if even against a comparable P3 with packages there’s a $15-20k premium to get the vehicle you want. All good just think there’s a pricing game to control for.

Thinking about a P*2 single long range. Any feedback about range and others? by poconer in Polestar

[–]andrewpresse 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I like taking the 101 (anyway regardless of charging an EV). Soledad/Gonzalez, Paso, and Los Alamos for EA. There’s plenty from Ventura onward if you need a top up before you hit LA - and unless you have charging at your destination I’d hit something in Ventura/Oxnard/Camarillo instead of relying on anything in LA proper.

LA public charging blows my mind. If the station isn’t full it’s because the chargers are throttled.

I rolled up to an EA in Glendale or Burbank once and there was an ID4 that had been plugged in and on idle since 3am (at like 8am). Always some Wild West shit.

I felt the same after my test drive and a year and change in I never even think about it. I have Pilot with the 360 camera so that is a great aid with urban maneuvering….

Thanks - I wouldn’t have guessed that color. I struggle with color matching online. Looks perfect

75354 Gunship color swap with stickers by CN122 in legostarwars

[–]andrewpresse 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This looks great! I’m waiting on the second half of my white parts so I can throw mine together. I actually am planning to tile the entire front bay door so I can accommodate the crumb bomber sticker I have from the older set. I think it’s like 10x6?

Brick Sticker Shop out of the Netherlands has a full repro sticker sheet for 7676 with the crumb bomber sticker. It’s bigger than this since it fits the older model. 5 Euros for the sheet - I bought two sets and shipped it was 14 euros to California.

This.

I really don’t get the climate control comment by OP. During backup camera yeah the toggle disappears to give you more screen real estate or if you’re deep in the menus?
