But the wrx isn't over priced. Is really easy to work on. Has tons of ability to replace and repair stuff. And has great specs
William Howard
It's Apple in that the engine hasn't changed much and the interior is still shit, yet they sell like hot cakes.

And they took away the hatch version which people loved. That seems like something Apple would do.

Apple doesn't have shit specs and they charge fairly reasonable prices for smartphone repair. I can tell you don't know the first fucking thing about engineering because if you did you would appreciate the lengths that Apple goes to in order to make what they think is a good product.
William Powell

You're dumb

Lucas Sanders
Apple does overcharge for its shit
It's repair service is fucking garbage for the price. Third party services are always cheaper AND they can actually back up your data and give it to you unlike apple that will wipe your shit even if there's nothing wrong with the drive
T. Computer repair technician servicing Apple computers for the last 12 years straight
Apple have the most removed computers in that they're so unserviceable they'd rather throw away an entire couple outer with a simple problem and give you a brand new one
Xavier Martinez
Do you know the first fucking thing about SoC architecture? No? Then shut the fuck up.
Their repair costs are nothing unusual in the industry. It will always be cheaper to DIY or pay a friend to do repairs. I'm saying that their first party repair services are in line with others. Of course you will do it cheaper because you don't have to deal with scaling up to servicing all RMAs in the US.
And it's normal these days to just give people a refurb and then refurb the device they send back. It's easier from a logistics POV and Tim Cook is all about logistics.

It's not not tesla morons. Tesla isn't nearly normie enough or cheap enough to be Apple and like it or hate it they're still doing genuine innovation and invention (just not the ones we as enthusiasts like)

>cheap enough to be Apple The 8gb Iphone launched for $599, $703 today. that's with a contract
The Apple III launched for $4340 in 1980, $12,800 today.
The Apple 20th Anniversary Mac retailed for $7500 in 1997.
I would agree that Teslas are out of reach of the "normie" buyer compared to a modest smartphone but that's comparing two very different things. Apples and oranges. but like all things apple did, and yet people still buy them. Just like they do outrageously priced apple products, people love tesla.

Beautiful and well-built. Long history of innovation. Hard to service on your own. Recognized by anyone anywhere. Still a status symbol to some extent. Reeed at by poorfags for brand name tax.

I know people love to give Apple shit, but in my experience their computers are damn near indestructible. I've had my MacBook for almost 9 years now and it still works great. I've had to do some basic fixes like replacing the battery and the cooling fan, but they were super easy and the parts were cheap. I know the initial investment is steep, but it pays for itself in the long run. How many of you have had your PC for as long?
Brody Wood
My last laptop was 7 years old, it only needed a new fan, but I just bought a new one. My current one is 4 years old. No problems at all. Apple uses the SAME PARTS from the SAME COMPANIES as everyone else. Then they mark it up 4x. That's why people hate on them.

Because Teslas are extremely advanced. They're not overpriced for the tech you get. In fact, Tesla makes very little profit on each car.

Teslas are neither of those. P100D Teslas accelerate faster than cars costing several times as much, while being able to seat 7 and having over 30 cubic feet of trunk space. No other cars in existence have that ratio of performance, practicality, and price.

>not as fast as other competitors >but easier to use >universal appeal >they hold on to a select few features (straight six engine, M, etc) >they're expensive for what what they are >you really can't argue why you bought a BMW with anything objective, it would be all subjective arguments
And before anyone just says 'well then it could be all German cars', not quite. Mercedes builds several of the best cars in the world (S-class, military G-wagons, 18-wheelers, their F1 program, etc) and Audi kinda just sticks with their program, never really changing anything. AWD for everyone and to hell with excitement (except the RS series)
But back to BMW. They don't have a true flagship (same with Apple, they don't produce any sort of a $5000 PC or some sort of super exclusive phones. It's all sort of very polished but still run-of-the-mill hardware for everyman, rich and poor. Apple and BMW have managed to snag that 'attainable symbol of affluence' that says 'i may or may not have money but i can at least afford this one piece of shiny shit'.
