Impressive acceleration and range. The 1/4 mill price tag, not so impressive.

After owning an S85 and P90D, I would buy one, both were 100% trouble free, of course they are expensive and selling or trading them can be a pain as many dealerships do not want them

This is the future and the Corvette will eventually follow in this path.

I like the disruption Tesla has brought to the market, however I wish they would make the front of the cars look a little more inviting and interesting. I know they don't need the intake grills or vents required for a gas-powered engine, however just leaving it plain is so over. We get it. It's electric.

If those stats are on the up and up, looks like Tesla has this battery thing figured out.

You were expecting 50k for one? This would be a world beater with a long range. This would be so amazing I might have to spring for one!
No car compares period!

The gas engine is headed for the exit.



Sell the Bugatti and take the loss!

No my point was that it is alot of money. No knock on the car. $250,000 is more than I care to spend on a car. Is it worth it? Maybe to you and a few others. Not me.

Make sure you post pics when you get one.
