Not trying to derail the thread because I like the Model S, but the driver of the M5 should be ashamed of that launchLike I said about the instant torque, peep the acceleration:

I gotta purchase some stock man...
I don't think it's the driver, it's honestly the cars. The Model S is all electric. That means instant power. The M5 is a regular car. That means you have to drive up your RPMs and most of the power is coming off the top end. That's why it took so long for the M5 to gain ground on the Tesla.Not trying to derail the thread because I like the Model S, but the driver of the M5 should be ashamed of that launch. I blame the driver for that loss, you could see how quick the M5 was when he finally figured out what to do. Either way, the speed of the Tesla surprised me, couldn't take it over an M5 though...

The base model's battery will get you 230 miles, the mid and upper tier getting you 300 miles per full charge. Is anyone really approaching that many miles in a day? Hell, a week?
I drive about 15ish miles to work M-F. 30 round trip, 150 per week. Depending on weekend activities, that's like one charge per week. This is ultimately a non issue IMO unless one plans to take it on long road trips.
Now there's something you don't see everyday.Would this be a good replacement for a Prius?
Prius is pretty much my dream car but I'm wondering if Tesla is on that next ****.

In the Bay Area, Teslas are almost as common as Accords/Camrys. Ok that's an exaggeration, but I see a TON of them around Palo Alto and SJ on a daily basis while I'm driving to work
Tesla's seem to be popping up all over affluent neighborhoods in Oakland/Berkeley the last couple of months.
My Tesla. Base price is now starting around 63k I believe since they stopped making 40kw models. Charging isn't an issue depending on where you live. If you live in California then you have plenty of options but once you move to the Midwest and east coast the charging network isn't as readily available yet.View media item 723878
Don't mean to be in your business but how does one charge it?

Simple as plugin it into your wall?
