Mercedes EQE 500 Electric Sedan Reviewed!
I had a chance to drive and review a 2023 Mercedes EQE 500 Sedan, and give a few impressions. Overall it's a winner, everything you'd expect in terms of style and luxury from a great brand.
It's definitely a premium product but if you have the $$ you should put it on your list!
Thanks again to @ThreePointMotorsVictoria and @kendinnadge1406 for letting me have the car for review.

Tesla Plaid vs Porsche Taycan 2022 Nurburgring Battle!
Переглядів 1,4 тис.Рік тому
Here are the last versions of both the flagship Tesla and Porsche EVs on their record-setting laps. Very well matched sedans, with different approaches to engineering. 2023 looks to up the ante as the Plaid Track Pack has just set an even faster lap on R compound tires. Rumour has it that a faster version of the Taycan is soon to be released, but we'll have to wait for that next battle! #Tesla ...

Here's a matchup I've been wanting to put together, just had to wait until the production Tesla Model S Plaid had been out on a race track! We already know it's incredibly fast in a straight line, being among the quickest production cars out there, but how will it fair if a customer takes their car out for a track day? With 1020 Horsepower, it has double the power of the stunning Porsche 911 GT...

Porsche Taycan - Porsche Connect App and Energy Costs. How Much Cheaper Is It?
where i am the part of the law says to no modify the exhaust to make it louder, than it says to not exceed 95db.
One thing some people arent aware of about these vehicles, are they are king when it comes to spl in car audio. The shape of the rear makes competition spl a breeze. And Oh the virtue signaling. Look at us, two men, afraid of what ppl will say if we dont social distance and wear a face diaper. Glad its over. Dread the next round of "election time disease to push mail in ballots" coming to a main stream news outlet near u" 2024
Real nice, whats the name of that color? Ignore the haters and critics, must not be car guys
Oh geez, I'd have to ask Joe!
@@WestCoastSupercarsandClassics Thanks!! Sure youre busy but its been on my mind. Gawd I love the lines on these cars...perfection!
Casually just having an R34 in the background 👀
😎
It there a part 2 coming?
As soon as Martin gets back to it! He lost the garage so had to put the project on hold for a while
@@WestCoastSupercarsandClassics That's unfortunate... I hope he gets it back up soon! I'm also located on the island looking to do a similar thing to my Prelude
Its so wrong but it feels so right 😆
Neat to see your project. Good timing too in that I'm working on the exact same car -64 1800S in Red !
Tesla: Hold on kids"
Stop worrying about people cars. And worry about the other stuff. Like crime and drugs and all that other stuff. Not that dum stuff . If I won’t to mood my car exhaust I’m going to do a you not going to stop me . I pay for my with my hard work money. If I won’t to do that customer exhaust I am . You not going to stop me . Bottom line. I live in a state just don’t have to deal with that dum stuff .
34 seconds at full speed. Do you know how big of a gap that is?
Tesla crap box...an expensive computer screen with wheels.....
Did you ever try to turn of traction control on the track? If so, what was your experience? (I have tried it on ice/snow, and it’s pretty insane)
I didn't, just a little extra safety margin when driving near the limit.
@@WestCoastSupercarsandClassics I considered taking it off for a track day this weekend but decided against. The Taycan is extremely impressive on the track I went to (Motorcenter Norway in Sokndal). (CT4S with all the chassis and wheel extras). I am considering whether to get non-OEM rims and slicks for track days. Have you heard of anyone having tried that on a Taycan?
@@Sketchy_Andy I haven't.. I'm using Goodyear Eagle F1s for summer and track. At the time I looked there weren't a lot of choices but probably there are more now. Check with your dealer for specifics though
What state is this
in canada
Fun fact: Electric cars are amazing for acceleration but acceleration only. Braking, cornering, and top speed are just bad.
This was just fascinating to watch. No crazy graphics and unnecessary dialogue. Just great video and compelling feedback. I just picked up my Taycan Turbo last month and absolutely love it. Super hot down here in Florida but hoping to get it on the track in Homestead this summer. Thanks for the inspiring video.
Thank you also for the great feedback!
Just a few 1000 kilometers on it, so it rarely gets driven... a shame considered how much he probably paid for it.
I dunno, it's pretty much a fun toy, not something you get groceries in, or do road trips in. It's rare for folks to drive street-legal race cars that much per year. Maybe if it didn't rain so much out here... LOL
I owned one of these cars for 3 years. FFR Gen 1. It was the coolest looking car but the worst reliable car I ever owned. The day it sold was a great day. First of all, never buy one of these with under 2500 miles. It takes thousands of miles to get the bugs out of it.. the new owner has already dropped 9k in repairs in the first 6 months he owned it. Cool cars but major money pits..
Sorry you had that experience. Since they're all custom built, you can't extrapolate any single build to all others. This one was fun to own, I had it for 5 years and the gent who bought it from me (a superfan of them) has taken his vision and lavished it with care. I should go do a followup video so you can see where he's taken it. For starters, he wanted a different engine colour, so he went to the trouble of removing it and repainting it; he wanted a more original look to the rear window so replaced that... and the list goes on. These are very easy to work on so I didn't find it a chore; I enjoyed working on it myself. But it's not an OEM car with a warranty!
Added Mondi to the list. This car seems to be.
There's a state in Australia called Victoria
Very nice car.
The more I see the EQ`s the more I like them - looks great!
Nice to know normal revs are only tested 😁
Sheer perfection 👌👌😀😀
Like having a big penis and not knowing how to use it.
Found this very useful. Thank you
A Tesla isn't a Porsche. I'd be changing my diaper after driving that Tesla on that track.
My Taycan came with the roof system and bike rack installed by my Porsche centre. I want to remove the bike rack and put something else on - but the Porsche Centre says that’s impossible… 😢 I’m trying to remove the bike rack but having some trouble as the front won’t release. Any thoughts?
with 1957 car through Mongolia , and then someone will say these RR are not reliable …
I have a Model S, but would take a Porsche GT3 over it, obviously. Been scouring the market. You just can’t get an allocation. Tesla is a good daily driver though and has “practical “ performance when accelerating on / off interstates or just getting out a pinch. But the 911s 😮
Built a 916 Restomod with a Ford Colone 2.9 and was thinking on upgrading to a 911 engine. Thanks for the videoing the build: Doug in Cocoa, Fl
GT3 eats curbs all day every day
COMPLIMENTS ! On your video, very informative, it was like visiting an old friend and chatting about The Labour of Love of Car Restoration. I had quite a few 914's back in the day, I fell in love with one by going down the alley and saw this silver 914 in a garage with no license plate which said to me, Hi ! I could be yours ! It was a 2l with Porsche wheels ,the year was 1986 ,guy wanted $1000 ,it was rusty too ,the doors were sagging, you had to slam the doors shut otherwise the door would flex etc etc . Behind the drivers seat , you had to put a piece of plywood so you could keep the water from the road at bay , Also there was a Gas leak ! I was told from the VW mechanic who reluctantly worked on it that I was driving a Bomb ,and he ORDERED me to GET RID OF IT ! I put some silver duct tape over the rear 1/4 panels/ top door jams drove it around for a couple weeks sold the Porsche Rims for 400 CAR for 800 ,and then, The real hunt began ,I had bought and Sold somewhat restored Many 914 's in 2 years .The 914 was considered the Ugly Duckling and most Mechanics saw me come into their Shop and turned and walked away ,OR Thought ... "What Can I Do You For " I had Fallen in Love with On rails feeling and the Sound of a Fine Tuned 2l or 1.8 l Vw engine. I did a lot of talking with people, before I bought my 1st 914 Most People Said Stay Away ...Or Run Away !.. Rapping this up ,otherwise it will become a Long Novel ,If One is to do Restoration on a 914 You Gotta Love The Car,and Understand and Update & Modify The Shortcomings , One has to know Intimately everything about the 914 ,Only & ONLY IF YOU LOVE TO HAVE THAT SWEET DRIVING EXPERIENCE Which I also got from a race ready Datsun 510 in Vancouver. I Also had a Race ready 914 with Weber Carbs ...The Driving of that Car was as Good As SEX !...So you have to be in Love with the Car and the Feel of the Drive & brush off The Snobbery that comes from " real Porsche owners" and just enjoy !
Curious I wonder if the Taycan rack fits a 911-991.2 any friends locks to test it 😂
Why do newbs and nerds, skinny frame, Tesla men, sorry, always want to do 1/4 mile races…that is a distance my grandma can still jog… too short..make it a mile….and see who’s faster….and that is already a short distance…but you need to reach top speed. Same for cybertruck….quarter mile is nothing.
Fun to see the guy explaining Ken how to drift a car! :D
FartMobiles 💩🤣💩
LMAO
Trumpet players, swarm of Bee's, my lawnmower sounds better,,,and that's sooooo cool. Why does any one else need to hear your pipes? Does it play music or you forget what your motor sounds like? Give it up man
Apples and oranges? Man, get it together. Just look at the aero of the Porsche. Practicality for everyday driving: Close to 0. Plaid: Family sedan with 100 points a sedan can reach in usability. And surely the fastest in the sedan competition besides the Lucid. You are just, how should I put it, a man with too much money? Because Tesla is destroying the ICE competition in efficiency and sustainability. Just inhale your exhaust fumes happily. 👍
Again some folks miss the point - they think that Plaid makes all sports cars obsolete and slow. Clearly that's not true, not even slightly, when it comes to the purpose of sports cars to entertain and to rip around tracks. It's partly the fault of UA-cam since it favours quick drag races, and not the more complex track dynamics. It makes it appear as though Plaid is the fastest thing on the road, which it isn't. That's the point. Plaid has its place, but it's not the king of the road and never can be.
Well, it might not be the King of the Race track, it obviously can‘t be because of all the well known reasons like weight, aero, tires, brakes. But King of the road it definitely is. No ICE Car is comparable to the might from a standstill or a roll of a Plaid. Without launch prep aso. Usable in the blink of an eye. Plus it’s ridiculous silence. You can use its power anytime anywhere, even in urban environments. Try that with any ICE of comparable power and you will most likely go to jail or at least annoy people. With a Plaid you can just go for it with almost nobody noticing. And waaaayyyyyyyy more efficiently. That are the points. Those noisy, stinking fart cannons, the 'fun' they may be, the outdated and reckless they are concerning our future and the future of the planet. 😉
@@robinsonreichel1268 A lot of folks do track days, myself included. I track my EV as well, which very few out there can probably say. I also completely understand and support the market for high performance ICE sports cars. It doesn't have to be mutually exclusive. Nobody is going to buy a Plaid as a sports car to take to the track. It's not a good choice. So it cannot replace those products.
@@WestCoastSupercarsandClassics I hear you but I can't feel you anymore. Why not just stop using these fossil burners just for 'fun'? Ever heard of COP28, the global meet to try to save the planet? Which is desperatly seeking a way for us all to survive the avalache industriallisation and the use of fossil fuels has imposed. We need to decarbonize the glory days of burning earth without regret should definetly be over. Don't you have children?
How many lap you get with one full charge
I've never actually tried to count, to be honest. I usually do 3 sessions of 20mins or so. Maybe 8 laps per session (guessing) so 24 laps? If they had a DCFC at the track you could juice up between sessions no problem. I have to save some % so I can drive to the town and recharge.
0:50 Did 'ya catch that? 5:24 It's not a 'P' 1800s. They stopped the 'p' in 1963 when Volvo brought the manufacturing to Sweden.
Jamie calls it a P1800S, at about :55 in. You can argue with him I guess? AFAIK the name switched to P1800S when they moved production to Sweden, and the P was dropped much later when they went to a 2L engine in 1968. Hope that helps.
Helps how? Disclaimer...at a V dealer 10 and I still no nothing. 😂😂
Any updates on this project?
thats what im saying I wanna see!!!
It's about smoothness and responsiveness of the power delivery. A lot of very 'powerful' cars have narrow power bands and feel like sluggish in low-mid range 2K-3K RPM, where most driving is. My tuned Audi A4 only had 310hp, and was a blast to drive - it felt fast in any driving scenario (casual/spirited/passing/racing) and much faster than more powerful BMWs that I've driven. My Cayman has around 340hp and gives an exhilarating experience.
All 6 of the original cars are road legal. Shelby did high speed testing on the M1 in the UK
I have an 04 manual transmission , I was wondering do you know how I can check my fluid to see if I need to give it a change
Thank you. Very useful information.
You're welcome!
Not many good 612 videos. This one is good. Just bought one and awaiting delivery, the wait is killing me!!!
Thank you! Came close to buying this one, it's an astounding engine and a beautiful car. Let me know when you get yours!
Mind your own damn business.
Can we have Rimac Nevera vs Porsche 911 GT3, please.
Oh yeah.... coming up!
Modifying any vehicle to make it louder than the manufacturers specification should be banned and illegal - PERIOD.
Go to communist China I'm sure they will welcome you with open arms
Nope
Nope
Yeah I guess you don’t know what a hobby is then. Shouldn’t be allowed to modify any item from a manufacturer if that’s how you want it. Oh and don’t forget speakers lets ban those because they are to noisy
You get no 🐱 and it shows 😂
Add Hamilton collection to this list
Ive seen the original in a museum in Philadelphia. The curator took it outside for laps and let a freind of mine ride shotgun. Awesome day.
Nooo!! How cool is that?
