The people buying Teslas must have a absolutely odd definition of sexy. I put them at a 4/10 at best. Shit I put my daily driver Civic at 6/10 because the driver cockpit is phenomenal and has a significant amount of attention to detail for a cheap car, but I have driven many high end 6-figure cars as well.



Sexy tech and sexy performance. Buying car for it’s looks is super dumb.

Admittedly i’m talking about first generation cars - roadster and S. Cars that decided Tesla’s fate.


Buying a car for straight line performance is what's dumb.


Less dumb than caring about exterior. I am the one using car - it’s better be comfortable and fit for purpose rather than meet someone’s elses expectations.

I agree we should actually limit top speed and acceleration so people don’t use them as weapons so much.

In a way - nerf and desex the cars.


Agreed. Sexy cars are used for showing status and attracting women to have sex with you.

This is dumb because you can just have sex with your hand. Logically why even involve women? On this regard, you sir are a genius.


Arguably it’s the most common form of sex


My Model Y accelerates from 0-60 in 4.4 seconds. That to me is sexy. Flooring the pedal in my car feels like being launched into orbit. And my car is among the slower models Tesla makes.

Can your Civic do that?

I'll answer for you: No it cannot.

We all have different definitions of sexy.
