    High speed crash in Germany

    Impressive real world crash test. I'm sure dad will replace with another tesla, and perhaps leave it in valet mode whenever he gets out. Back to the crash testing though, I have always found it interesting that cars like the Porsche 911 aren't tested by Euro NCAP or the US NHTSA. They are...

    I know my car was spotted in October, but it was a grainy reverse camera shot, so here's an interesting comparison photo taken in Brisbane. Hope you don't mind me sharing it.

    Tesla in Queensland

    I saw the Demo this morning in the city from Petrie Tce to St Paul's Tce, got a nice wave and thumb's up. I picked up my Deep Blue P85D on 27/10/15 - absolutely loving it!
