The white Urus I saw a few days ago (in the Copperfield area) was the first Urus that I’ve seen that wasn’t within a few blocks of the Galleria.

A 2023 BMW X7 (still had the temporary paper LP).

I’ve sat in one, and I like them, but not the color I saw….which was sort of an ‘overcast grey’.

A Tesla Plaid, as in “plaid* speed”. Only a subtle badge (circled in green) identifies the plaids.

For an added $31,000 you get extra super crazy speed.

$105,000 — MSRP for a regular Tesla Model S
$136,000 — MSRP for a Tesla Model S Plaid

* - “plaid” is from the 1987 movie, Spaceballs, a favorite of Elon Musk. He incorporated two terms for his Tesla cars: ludicrous speed, for extra fast, and then plaid speed for extra super crazy fast.

I think these prices are extra super crazy.

They definitely do. Until one tries to build an AWD reliable 1000hp car that can be daily driven by anyone with all the creature comforts of a luxury sedan.

The look wasn't like their sports cars, by any means, more like any small-midsize SUV, like an Outback or RAV4. On the other hand, it has a twin-turbo V8 with 641 horsepower. I took a bit of delight in passing it in my F150 Coyote V8 with only 385 horsepower.
I saw an Aston Martin SUV (the DBX) the other day. It was a bright metallic orange, which was a cool color, but honestly. I like Aston Martin but the SUV would be my last choice. Ditto for Lamborghini.

On Sunday, I spotted an Audi Q4 Sportback e-tron. Who at Audi styling thought THIS looked good?

The same people who designed the Honda Accord Crosstour, the BMW X6, and the Mercedes-AMG GLE 63 S Coupe, that’s who. I’m not a fan of that body style. But there are some out on the road, so it’s somewhat popular. Maybe it’ll grow on me.

I actually don't find that bad looking.

Like many a profile pic on Tinder, you will be surprised in real life.

My BMW 3 Series GT isn't a looker but it's Charlize Theron compared to the Audi.
