Cool. Can they make one I can afford?

Wait a year. It'll depreciate $100k

I think they’ve ironed a lot of them out at this point, but especially near its release, it had a TON of software issues and recalls. I believe it was because they basically outsourced a bunch of major components, and then didn’t spend nearly enough time on making sure the software to tie everything together was super bulletproof.

These days it’s way easier to find Reddit posts of people checking if they’re reasonable to by at some point in time from the last couple years than it is to find articles… I think a lot of them may have been taken down and scrubbed in a PR effort.

Thanks for the info. I didn't know. The last I saw, the car was in the Avengers with a fake engine sound.
