I grew up with posters of a 911 Turbo, a Ferrari 308, and a Countach on my wall. These were the dream cars of my childhood. When I got to college it shifted to something more realistic, an E36 M3. At that time the M3 was in the mid $40k range and seemed possible when I graduated.
As I got older and my income grew to the point where I could begin entertaining the cars of my childhood, Porsche entered the equation.
For many, Porsche, Ferrari, Lamborghini, etc will always be a dream that isn’t achievable. So, a Model 3 Performance (similar to the E36 M3 in some ways) could be a dream car for many. The Plaid also bridges that gap between higher priced super cars. It’s not crazy to think Tesla’s are dream cars for many.
This doesn’t mean that Porsche or Ferrari are any less of a dream car. I would bet for most people (who appreciate cars) if their financial situation changed, so would their dreams.
