As funny as this is I can't see it going anywhere.
Maybe not, but there's some merit to it. Initially it was a highly desirable car, now one is ashamed to be in because owner is a Nazi. Another problem is that there's much higher risk that someone else will damage it (again, because of the owner).
Ya, I'm guessing insurance costs have risen and that definitely comes into play.
Also: this was not accidental but a willful decision made by the company. If they did just Boeing it you would not have a case.
That should increase the insurance premium and therefore the lease as well due to the risk
Why? This was not something people must have expected due to it being obvious and there is also plain and obvious harm done to them.
If this is the precedent then everything becomes unexpected. You made a contract buying the car, that contract is signed in the past. Nobody cares what happens after that.
I think they are looking for an early release from the lease, not a refund on a purchase.
Yeah, buying a car, not a Neo Nazi Symbol.
Exactly
They explicitly did not do that.
Let's not forget how much scummy stuff Elon is doing. It's not "only" the whole Nazi thing (which btw totally increased the chance of the car being vandalized). We know that he lied about the autopilot, which totally is something to sue about and give back a leased car.
