see my earlier post .....:winkwink: the 2 door sports version is out now ....:thumbsup

Regarding the other subject - Apple....to be fair to them they did say they would upgrade the iphone at least once every year with the latest technology and also thier other products.

The current VAG diesels are easily tuned too. Seen some bonkers SEAT Leons :thumbsup
I'd rather have an Elise and all the spare cash.

Yes, I would.
Especially if the price was right. It cannot be compared to any other hybrid car. Its pure electric and it looks absolutely beautiful. Not to mention that it costs less than Lexus or Mercedes of the same class.

It will be interesting to see how the final product compares quality wise to Lexus, Mercedes, BMW, etc.

I love Tesla Motors and I'm glad to see they're delivering exactly what they promised... I sedan under the $60k price mark! Looks damn sexy too, very nice design!

sharp looking car, I won't be buying version 1.0 for sure, but when all bugs are polished up, I don't see why not..

all you tree huggers can drive that and drop the demand for oil...cheaper gas for me

just not practical except for city commute

tesla will be lucky if they can build that car for under $50k.

haha, current price of oil is balanced between the cost and demand. But you never know if it will drop or grow if people will start using electric cars all of the sudden. I guess its not going to drop.

Maybe if my wang fell off

I would consider it for sure.

The thing I think a lot of people do when they dismiss the electric car's range is that they don't think realistically about their life. Most people don't drive that much in any given day. the average person could commute to and from work, run their kids around town after work, run errands and still have plenty of range left in any given day.

People see that range and they say, "Well, I couldn't take a trip in it so it isn't practical and I won't get one." But the real question is how often does a person take a trip like that. I can think of only a few times in the last 5 years I have taken a road trip that was long enough that I would have exhausted the range on the car. For trips like that you rent a car for a few days. So you own the electric for 99% of your life and rent a car for that 1% of the time you need more range.

To me dismissing the range for a trip is like saying, "Six years ago I had to haul some stuff out of storage and to the dump, so that means I need a truck and I won't buy a regular car because I can't haul stuff in it."

Thats cool car. If in the nearest future the engineers made a material that the future electric cars will be made that the whole surface of the car will collect solar energy and the cars will auto-recharge while you driving...........

Awesome looking car would love to have it

Probably not. If I can afford a $50,000+ sport luxury sedan I can sacrifice fuel efficiency for more performance..(For example a gas powered M3 sedan does 0-60 in about 4.3 seconds).

I think manufactures went the other way with these hybrid/electric cars. Hybrid cars should be affordable to average cost consciousness consumers. People who buy $40-$50-$60,000+ cars don't weigh as heavily on fuel efficiency.

Tesla Model S Sedan looks interesting. I wonder if they will make a transformer in the future that transforms into a car and a robot.
