I know exactly where you're coming from. We had to stretch to get our S85 too. We just got to a point where we felt it was important to put our money where our values are. Tesla was the only Auto manufacturer who seemed serious about moving the world off of fossil fuels and I wanted to support that. Ours was one of the first 6,000 made, so while we knew it looked awesome, no one knew how reliable they would be, how safe they were, or even if Tesla would be around to service them in a year or two. Now, after two years, all of the objections to owning one have evaporated. Besides being beautiful, its the safest car, the most technologically advanced car, the quickest, best handling sedan for the money and Tesla seems here to stay. Now its a car that even someone who hasn't a clue about the environment would love.
