I am ready for the Tesla Model S R90D with increased range, the large motor in front and back, even larger brakes, more use of carbon fiber, and a larger rear spoiler, BAM

Just curious if the front motor from the P85D will in a golf cart, 18 holes in half the time :-/

For me it's a must have to get up my driveway (we live on the side of a mountain) and some nasty speed bumps and road conditions in parts of the island.

What are your calculations on $120k? That's closer to the cost of an optioned P85D out the door. Mine is almost 130k. Now the ICE is $57k using your 44% calculation. Staggered tires aren't an issue on the other AWD models, maybe a better way to go if cost and tire wear is an issue.

It's definitely not worth $2000 in Hawaii

Seem to be following AAPL's lead

Haha, well said.

Well stated. I think this especially applies to Tesla. As long as Elon is leading development I think it's safe to assume a steep technology development curve. Look what the company has done in a short time. Just with performance, they have accomplished more than most manufacturers, whom by...

You have any idea what sports car manufacturers go through to get their cars to go from, say 4.2 sec 0-60 to 3.2 sec? It rarely happens. I had a 2007 Aston Martin that did 4.9 and 7 years later with all their weight savings, modifications, and improvements that time is down to 4.7. The same...

Forget the fronk, give me a dual 470hp engine Tesla, 0-60 in, say, 2.5 seconds. Sign me up.

Interview after interview, Elon has been discussing and hinting at the amazing features in store for Tesla vehicles. It's no secret great (and better) things are on the horizon. If you want one, at some point you have to pull the trigger. In doing so, we all risk something better coming right...

Are you even buying the P85D?
