Now we "Force Space." Well, that's what their press release says.

Porsche has never built a car below Tesla's current standards for fit and finish. Had a 67 911 apart for restoration and even back then everything fit perfectly. Back then it was a $7,500 to $9.000 car. Today probably $150k+

Trump's Space Command is laughable as they reconquer the same ground occupied by the USAF since 1953. How do you think Mercury and Gemini got into space?

The dual motor can knock off a GT2. Base model pictured. I hunt Porsches, Mustangs and Corvettes. Easy and fun.

I have a Model 3 and that sucker is fast (not the performance model either). It’s not a sports car, but it will beat quite a few of them off the line and handles better than a lot of them.
