Tesla will sue you for $50,000 if you try to resell your Cybertruck in the first year

This is odd for us but Ferrari has similar contracts.

People may remember how Deadmau5 had to give up on his "Purrari". He was threatened with a lawsuit by Ferrari who was unhappy with his Nyan cat livery and colors. And this is not a one-off, Ferrari won't let you paint it in non-Ferrari colors and I believe they have restrictions on who you resell it to.

Deadmau5 replaced the car with a Japanese sports car that was happy for the marketing opportunity.

Sorry, I don't want to buy a car that looks like old Tomb Raider where Lara's boobs are triangular.

Can I set up an LLC and use that company to buy the car? Then, collapse the LLC, and sell the car at a giant markup to whoever’s dumb enough to buy it

So you don't own the thing you brought, you're going to be the biggest mug buying this

While this is an asshole move, companies like Ferrari do stuff like this too. They, for example, do not allow certain modifications on their cars and if they find out that you have done them, they will ask you to restore those parts back to originals. It is unreal how much car companies try to get from us.
