        i read it already. i recommend watching techlore’s tesla privacy video. i’m thinking about buying an somewhat drivable vintage car with no tech outside running the car itself. my recent fav is 1988 964 911

          That’s a classic. You would be lucky to get one for 50k rn, and I’m sure it won’t get any cheaper in the future.

              i didn’t say that it’s cheap? it’s my favorite one inside that cluster, and why do you recon that i wouldn’t be able to afford one, just like that?

                It’s just that if “somewhat drivable vintage car” is your criterion, an aircooled Porsche is going to be way in the upper percentiles of what you could get. People who are willing to pay the ridiculous current prices usually do so because they aren’t cross-shopping with anything else. A somewhat drivable vintage car could also be an NA Miata for 1/6th the price.

      Will? Will? Think again. Cars are already the worst when it comes to data collection and privacy. Not just Teslas, anything with Android Auto or similar. They can literally tell if you’re banging someone in the back seat. BMW made people pay a yearly subscription to access heated seats. I hate the modern automotive market.
