Buying the 2012 Tesla Model S is like acquiring a Picasso with the caveat that the artist will show up periodically, at inconvenient times, to make touch ups and fix problems: It’s a work in progress. Cars.com reviewer Joe Wiesenfelder says much of the all-electric car’s original composition is brilliant, especially its “staggeringly quick” acceleration, unparalleled range and charging speed. While convenient wireless software upgrades may spirit away many of the Model S’ problems, would you pay $100,000 for a car whose “butt sensor” might kill the engine when the driver simply leans too far to the side?
