Been driving an S now for over a month. Best car I have ever driven. My wife gets the S. I now drive the E350. The S blows it out of the water,
D75, all wheel drive

I never knew they made an all wheel drive
Enjoy the ride Joe. It's a great car
believe they all are AWD now. the 75 RWD was just announced to be discontinued. bummer as us SoCal folks have little use for AWD
they also don't use genuine leather anymore as part of their eco thing. i didn't realize that.
A few days ago I was driving home from lecturing and I saw a bright red P100D stopped at a red light. Each time the light turned green, the car sped off and I followed because I wanted to get a good look at the car. After being stopped at a few red lights behind the Tesla, I was finally able to get side by side with it and was deeply staring at the car. What I finally noticed was a cute brunette driving it and gave me one quick stare back, probably thinking I was stalking her. When the light turned green again, she took off at "ludicrous" speed into the distance and that was the last I saw of it.
The launch with AWD is much better than RWD
yeah, but at the expense of handling and weight. neither is Tesla's strength .
0-60 times, which is Tesla's marketing point, don't particularly impress me anymore - i mean, a 2018 Mustang GT can do that now under 4 seconds for 35k.
That said, I like the Model S a lot - its quite the looker. My bigger issues with Tesla are QC and reliability.
The 3 starts at $35,000. Japanese reliability? All car makers produce cars with issues. As for speed, the Tesla goes as high as 155 mph. This is meaningless to me as I would never, ever approach that. However, the quickness and instant acceleration is very important, especially on roads like the Pa and NJ Turnpikes, where you never know what will happen ahead of you. It has come in handy already for me,
