In response to John:
The Tesla S does look like a beautiful car. I would happily take the car for a test drive if Tesla wanted to offer. But it strikes me as similar to a lot of $100K cars: an expensive toy. I mean, who buys a car which may need a new $12k battery pack in 8 years? Someone with money to burn who wants an expensive conversation piece. When you get up in this range, it’s not about practicality so much as having something more powerful or more exclusive than the other guy.
At present, there are faster, equally beautiful gasoline powered cars available for less money. I think it may be a while before that changes.
