Had a friend give me a ride on the Tesla S. I have to say, I was not prepared for the experience. He floors it, I am pushed into my seat due to sheer force of acceleration. What I was not prepared for was not as much that but rather the total lack of engine noise. It is hard to describe in words but it feels like you are leaping forward under your own power at that speed. The lack of mechanical noise takes away the notion of an engine moving you. It is one of the most unique auto experiences I have ever had. Even if you are not in the market, find someone who has one to take on you a ride.
On a much smaller scale, that giant display is super cool. While stopped at the light, it was really cool to look at the high definition image of what was behind you on a giant screen. The dash is incredibly pretty.
I am sort of stuck on SUV ownership given how much I haul but if I were not, I would beg, borrow or steal money to get one. They have really built the iPod of cars.
