The vast majority of drivers could care less about how fast their car is. The top selling cars in the US are all slow as shit. See top 25 most popular cars list here -

lol @ 99.9% only care about going fast in a straight line. Most people just want something cheap and reliable. Car enthusiasts want fast cars. EVs and car enthusiasts don't mix very well. Regardless, the Plaid is not a "sought after" car in the least. Simple supply and demand, otherwise they wouldn't be losing $50k in value in one year. Couple that with Tesla cutting prices of new models which further decreases value, while other manufactures like Porsche are raising their MSRP by $10k plus increased options costs which inflates the value of used ones. If I was a sucker that paid $150k for a Plaid and then Elon cut the price by $23k I'd never buy a Tesla again. Great for new customers, awful for brand loyalty and existing owners.
