So much depends on use and budget. Let’s set aside the latter, because it’s either not a concern, or it’s highly dependent on what you want to spend your money on, and thus only you can decide. Do you have a long commute each day that involves a lot of bumper to bumper freeway traffic? Do you regularly carry adult passengers in the back? Haul kids’ things to sports activities? You have a Ferrari so like most of us, appreciate vehicle dynamics and driving qualities. Based on your answers to the above, you have already received great recommendations. Another Tesla could well be the answer, as it checks most of the boxes if the answers to most of the questions is yes. If a Model S isn’t big enough, you can go to an X or Y. Granted, a lot of things may change due to Covid 19, at least for the next couple of years. Anyway, I’d also consider Porsche. A Taycan is super. Or a Macan, which handles extremely well for a sport SUV. Me? It was mostly just me in the car, I wanted very good performance and driving qualities, and all weather capability. So I went with a Porsche 991 turbo. A bonus is that I occasionally track it, too, particularly if the track event will mix me with a variety of cars that have much too little to lose compared to my Ferrari.

Last DD was a Merc AMG CL 55 which I pit 207k miles loved that car. Bought a Ferrari 612 OTO but decided it was too nice as a DD so kept it as weekend car. Looked at a Raptor and decided service would be a problem for me as a DD. Didn't like the AMG models a couple years ago. Didn't like the fit/interior on Tesla S. Afraid of the reliability of a Mauser but did like looks and interior. Ended up with a Panamera TTS as my DD. It has been a good and reliable car but not so much fun as the 612 but I don't worry about parking it as a grocery getter either.
If you want a daily driver, then you need to get yourself a 2010 Focus SE. Yep, even has power windows and a fancy lever on the side of the driver seat to rise and lower the seat to your preferred height. I don't need to wash it. I can drive behind a gravel hauler and not worry about the paint chips. Hail and bad weather mean nothing! I laugh at door dings and park it at the airport without worry. Had a 2001 with 334,000 miles (got rid of it because I didn't feel like changing the water pump), had a 2009 that has 250K miles (my son still drives it) and now have a 2010 with 200K. And before I started working from home, I was putting 150 miles per day on it.
I just gave my CL65 to a friend so I could make room for Model 3P. Under 90 mph, Tesla is a lot of fun, banging out 3.5 seconds to 60 all day and night and great AWD handling on the twisties. I have an 11 kW charger at home, and a 250 kW supercharger 3.1 miles from my house so no shortage of electrons for hard driving. Above that speed, need to get the Ferraris or my E46 M3 CSL out.
I drive a Jeep Grand Cherokee. This is my 5th one over various years ... I fit well in the latest versions. Sure I’d love to drive something like a AMG or M series SUV but I can’t show up to customers flaunting and I drive around 35k miles a year and maintenance on a AMG or M series is tough. I had a Porsche Macan ...tried that...caught sarcastic comments and getting an oil change is a pain in the ....With the Jeep I can pull in a oil change place and be done in 20 minutes. The Jeep does have a Hemi...lol Image Unavailable, Please Login
Yeah well it’s a different era- I still like my 05 cl65 over anything, mine is tuned and gets sub 11 1/4 mile and is built better then a Tesla and massages my back I only drive electric car to go to work. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
My 05 was tuned, but it had a Quaife diff. That's when it became usable. Open diff with the inability to disable traction control fully is the problem with most AMGs. And the massage function is pretty lame TBH. The Tesla drives itself in traffic ! No oil changes, no maintenance.
On my back road run on MP4S I can pull 1.7G and I never have to worry about ABC parts or a decent infotainment ! Image Unavailable, Please Login
05 vs 2015 ur comparing apple and oranges. My s63 coupe has far greater safety tech and build quality than Tesla (overall).Sorry not a Tesla interior fan it’s pretty poor. Great cars for sure, just not for me Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
Guilia QV or RR sport v8... whichever one my wife isn't driving! Still trying to make a decision on the weekend car... 458 or 488
I used an SLS GT Roadster as a DD for several years- most people thought it was a modded SL-until it fell apart(NYC streets can be so unforgiving) Now I use several vehicles depending on the day and weather Perfect spring/summer/fall days get a Ducati Mediocre weather gets the ML63 Horrific weather gets the Jeep Wrangler with 36 in tires and steel bumpers (the taxis steer clear of those sharp edges) When I want luxury it’s the Maybach S600 I haven’t use my Ferrari’s as DD because the experience is horrific in NY traffic (and too much evil eye) although I have been tempted during the pandemic now that the roads are empty (but those street conditions are still unforgiving-even in bumpy road mode) Sent from my iPhone using FerrariChat
