Disclaimer: other Tesla owners please don't get too defensive, there are tons of good things about the car and its a great "first-attempt" at a new concept, but this is my feedback focusing mainly on the negatives and what I would change, its been almost a week/500 miles with the Tesla, here are my initial thoughts
I think your points are valid, and as others have said, most of them have been covered before on this board (cupholders, hill hold, grab hooks, etc.). However, one thing that comes across with your post is that you put the entire emphasis on performance and luxury, and yet wonder why some people are seeing the car as a "game-changer" when you see it as just pretty good or ok. I suspect the reason you don't see what others do is because other people are putting their emphasis on different features of the car than you are. Performance and luxury features may be the most critical items on your list, but for a different person, practicality and "fuel" efficiency are equally, if not more important. This is true regardless of what cars one owned prior to owning a Tesla - you don't need to have owned a slowpoke Prius in order to see the Model S as a great car, not just a good one.
What I think makes the Model S a great car, not just a good one, is that it combines many of the traits of other quality cars in a single package, with only minimal sacrifices in each category. It's the overall package. My daily driver was a Mercedes C350 that I sold to get the Model S - and I regret nothing after 2 months. Not only does it outperform my old car (not an AMG, admittedly, but it wasn't exactly an econobox either in the performance category), but it's far more practical. I can carry more people and far more cargo, it's quieter, it's far more energy efficient, it has a nicer interior, a way better in-car user interface, and it costs less than a third to "run" than my old car did (my electricity bill vs. my monthly gas charges). That's not even mentioning the "green" benefits of driving electric in California. If I were comparing on only one or two of those criteria, then I might not be as impressed as I am comparing the entire package. No doubt that there are faster cars out there I could have bought. So while 60-120 speed is cool and all, and I used to do that from time to time in my Benz, that isn't important to me in the times I'm using my car to ferry my toddler around, or making a Costco run, or hauling stuff home from the furniture store.
This isn't intended as defensive, just offering a different perspective. In my opinion, there isn't another car out there that has the combination of features with minimal tradeoffs that this car does.
