I need a new car, and I really want to go full electric. I’m wondering if anyone regrets buying one? What are the downsides?

      Boring yes but easier to see, involved in proportionally fewer accidents, surface scratches are harder to see, remains cooler when parked outside, much easier to resell, always available, doesn’t attract attention, and the base white is normally cheaper…

      I completely get it for a lease car. It’s a work vehicle, not a passion project.

        I think white cars are also better at retaining value due to being a popular color (for all the reasons you listed).
