Agreed. I think the Tesla is an exciting car, but not in the usual way. It's probably a lot more dull to drive than most sports cars out there...even the Lotus on which it's based. But it shows a step in the right direction and, finally, that performance enthusiasm and alternative power sources don't have to be enemies. Sure, it's probably overweight and extremely expensive for what it is, but it's in it's infancy. Really...cars like that can only move forward as motors and battery technology improves. And honestly...who doesn't love peak torque from 1 rpm and up?
