Friends: 0 | Wet rear tires, hard left turn and full torque available at zero RPM? How come none of the drivers put their foot down and showed us a full-on four-wheel drift all the way down that street? Then again at $100K per I might drive conservatively as well. Come to think of it, does an electric car need to be "broken in?" |

Friends: 1 | With the TC/VSC on on the Tesla, you would be very hard pressed to drift/spin the car even in those conditions. |

Friends: 0 | Damn, that was sweet. I especially loved the blue one. However, for those of us who don't have 100K to spend on something like this, it tis but a far away wistful dream. I guess there is hope though; if celebs and other influential types get one or the next generations, they may start hitting the market at a more decent price tag for us mere mortals. (I also hope by then they can come up with a more practical body style. I like the sporty look, but it really isn't me.) |
