Long time thread lurker.

Just did the LA Auto show this week. Stelantis and Volvo were no shows. Lots of EVs.

Looks like VW is bringing back their hippie van, full electric. There were a couple there.

The basement was full of LA lowriders, motorcycles and lowrider bicycles. That was more exciting to me than 99 percent of the manufacturers' stuff.

Lowriders are really the only car culture that I find amazing and cool. I'm curious if eventually someone makes an EV convert from something like a late 40s Mercury or a 60s Impala to use as a lowrider.

Oh yes! There was a company there that was doing antique car EV installs (not lowriders, just normal cruisers). Sorry I didn't catch the company name. They had about 6 or 7 converted classic cars. I looked at the vendor list, but couldn't find it.

E: there were about 6 of those extreme VW bug lowriders that were about 3 feet high.

I'd post pics but I don't have a imgur account.

Been lurking in here for quite a while. Just did my taxes and I don't qualify for the tax credit now, so I guess all cars (minus Tesla, I just can't) are under consideration now.

Why not the ioniq 5? I see the 6 get thrown out there a lot.

Ahh, cool. I thought there were some kind of build issues as opposed to people just wanting sedans. Thanks for the incentive tip too.

Hope they have the parts unlike my Jeep recall still pending from summer 2022.
