I saw an all black one the other day and it looked decent. Not my style, but I could see why the person went with that choice.

OP, did you get your cybertruck?

Usual suspects who keep getting suspended/banned ruined it as expected.

Yeah the all black one looked better than the standard one we all see. Personally I like the one with the mounted machine gun on it.

I've seen an all red one and an all blue one. They are much nicer looking painted than original color. You can definitely tell a cyber truck at night from the front light pattern too.

Read an article this week. The Cybertruck has the worst resale value of any new car losing 38% of it's value.

Saw my first one in the wild yesterday. Much uglier in person if that was even possible.

I dont believe that. If your comparing to paying over MSRP and selling now, your right. But I dont see them selling under $50k but New is $63k for base, $73k for AWD and $100k for Cyber Beast.

They are not selling under $41k/$48k/$65k

Kinda of like the C8 Market, if you paid $20k over sticker of course you lost. But 2020s MRSP at $60k are still selling for like $50k+ pretty easily. New can be found for up to 15% off MSRP (or they some 10-15% and a Costco $3k rebate for a few months as well)

I think the prices you quoted are after the tax credits, which I don’t think is fair to build into the price. The AWD is $80k. I can see private sales of the Cybertruck going for $50k for distressed sellers. Considering how many have sold, it’s pretty wild to see how many are available at my local Carvana.

For the life of me I don't know why anyone would want one of these, they are possibly the ugliest vehicle ever created IMO. Every time I see one I think, Who could look at that and think to themselves I gotta have one of those?

some people don't buy their vehicles based on how attractive it is

True, those are with the credits, but If Im buying New and getting the credit, thats the price I think people should use to compare.

Ill have to look Carvana tbh. My uncle has one, I didnt hate it as much as I thought I would in person.

Probably applies to a tiny little fraction of the car buying public. I just did a luxury brand research thing and it was 100% about how the car looks. If they have you stare at cars from 5 different angles you bet consumers are overwhelmingly concerned with appearance.

It may seem disturbing for everyone else but cybertruck owners actually think their vehicles are attractive.

This is true, look at all those that actually bought a Pontiac Aztek or Chrysler PT Cruiser.

Terrible "truck". Terrible CEO. Terrible supporters.

Easy identifier of a limited critical thinking skilled individual when you see one in the wild.
