Ha. Ha.

That's with 12k miles. The payoff is currently $55,467.84 with PS FS. Absolutely insane.

Thankfully it's a lease.

Dear Polestar Financial Services

Dear Polestar Financial Services,

You should consider lowering the residual value for current lessees. Between the non-stop software issues, charging shenanigans, and now a literal ban of the next model year there is little doubt these vehicles are not worth what they were estimated to be at origination.

Still, there are people out there that love their P3 enough to purchase it at lease end. Why let these cars go to auction and take a financial bath when someone like me is willing to buy the car at true market value?

Why this makes sense:

  • I win
  • You win
  • The cars don't end up on a used lot somewhere at a severe discount and in the process lower what you can reasonably get for whatever new P3s you have left in the US
  • The government will change, the ban will go away, you may want to re-enter the US market in the future
  • You keep true fans happy... ish and maybe we remain loyal whenever you come back to the states

Thanks,

A fan

Got an email from Polestar that a software update is available. Went to the car and its nowhere in sight.

I wish more companies did this. It would save me from checking and create a little excitement. But the execution is horrible. Come on!

Anyone claim a Lidar offer? If so, which one?

All of the options seem bad to me. The lease came with road hazard protection and we'll never get to brake pads under it. Also, 1500 seems like a low ball offer.

Anyone take it? Just curious? Anyone have luck calling Volvo and counter offering?

Can I get a skin fade after a HT?

I never see anyone on here with a fade after a HT. That possible or is the scaring too bad.

I'm considering using my chest hair as the donor area (don't need it anyway) so I can still get a fade and never grow my hair long anyways so why not. Am I crazy?
