So... what car do you guys drive when not flying?

my father feigned frustration at the temperamental stating of its twin cam engine,

Most would nod to one another and say " ***** alfa"

Currently driving an AMG GLC 63S but I've just ordered a Model Y Performance.

Model Y Performance.

Just in case, i should point out it is most definitely not a luxury car.

Yes, but with envy.

Neither is the AMG TBH, it is disappointing in quality. The only really good part of the car is the engine. I am happy with the Tesla after an extended test period.

Welcome to AFF @DasColonel . They say the AMG is likely to be GLC 63V8 is likely to be collectable.

All really depends on your definition of luxury. It's certainly more luxurious than a base Corolla

But Tesla with their spartan interior focus, limited model differentiation or option list, certainly have less premium bits. And only vegan leather.

Note DasColonel is sticking with a European made car (current Tesla Y P in Australia comes from the Berlin factory, all other Aus models from Shanghai, only S/X and 3s until 2020 came from Fremont).

I should add for those that don't know that vegan leather is essentially vinyl.

Note that BMW Senstatec and Sensafin, Mercedes MB-Tex and a whole lot of others brands use synthetics in most of their models, though do generally provide $$ upgrades for real leather.

Alcantara is also completely synthetic.

Thank you @prozac - If it turns out to be collectable, so be it. If it lasts that long. The car has as many squeaks and rattles as a 25 year old commodore, but I guess they are now collectable too.
