Tesla P90D

With Ludicrous package ... anyone drive one? How do these cars brake, handle, what is weight? Saw one on Jay Leno's garage, designed one on their website and got my lease payment north of $1800!

Not a bad car to drive actually, especially for daily commute. But for spirit driving no, the battery will overheat and you will find yourself in limp mode.

I will order a model X once Tesla sort out the kinks.

You also have to lower your expectations in build quality. It's not on par with the other high end brands - BMW/MB/Audi.

They are definitely insanely fast. And it's an interesting experience to move from 0-jail with no noise, and no gearshifts.

I think it drives real well, the inside is not near as nice as an m5, but having all the weight in the middle of the car with the battery, makes the car drive real smooth...
