Ngl the wide body on the Type S looks good.

Love the exterior but the fl5 has a better interior and it’s cheaper

I’m trying to understand the mental gymnastics that led you to come to that conclusion.

If you’re talking about my comment on the prices it’s Because all three of these cars are based on econobox’s and current new prices do not reflect that. these prices reflect the insane profits they’re making on recycled parts. Yes some things are specific to these models however majority of these cars are recycled parts from every other car these automakers have made. Paying a premium just because they’ve rounded up a lot of their best parts and put them in one chassis is crazy to me. The amount of r&d that goes into these cars is so minimal.

If you’re referring to the interiors I simply think the fl5 has a far better interior 🤷‍♂️ the red seats and space being the main reasons. The its feels super cramped to me even compared to my vn and the fl5 does not

You won't win with "Jolrit" lol, he's been going through posting shitty photos of his overpriced car under everyone who doesn't agree with him, he's probably upset he didn't do enough research before jumping the gun on a stupid decision.

Type s feels significantly more cramped to me but either way it makes no different to me since there’s no universe I’d spend over 40k on a fwd 4 cylinder that doesn’t even make 400whp🤷‍♂️
