Not cheap, but awesome!

30,000 miles with not a single problem. A joy to drive. No problems with charging and many road trips. Only real drawback is cost to purchase and insure.

Absolute Thrill

The Tesla is a stunning automobile. It is sleek, futuristic, and incredibly fast. If set up with LUDICROUS mode, it can been most super cars from 0-60. That is insane! The ride is ultimately comfortable and a complete joy. One word: BLISS.

Most Amazing Car I've Ever Been In

This car is absolutely amazing. You can tell that Tesla paid attention to every detail as they produced this car. The ride is smooth and comfortable, but sporty enough you can interact with the road. The acceleration is out of this world! What an awesome experience.

The Most Amazing Car I've Ever Been In

This car is absolutely stunning. The performance is out of this world, and it is obvious that Tesla considered every aspect of the driving experience when they designed it. I am beyond words almost every time I drive it.

Run silent, run deep, run fast

2014/2015, P85. Bought in August of 2015. One of the last British Racing Green (sorta) w/ grey Napa leather interior, tech package, premium sound system rear wheel drive Model S's manufactured. It was a Baltimore, Md Tesla service/sales center "halo" car. Bought and delivered through the Cincinnati, Oh Tesla service center via internet and email negotiations ... things have really, really changed. Just returned from a trip to Niagara Falls and, in the rated areas, it performed flawlessly. Stopped at all 5 of the Supercharger's identified on the Interstate route selected by Google Maps displayed on the 17" information/computer screen and Garmin turn-by-turn instructions on the dash - should have, needed to only use two. It was a very comfortable ride, love the seats and all the cabin, trunk space. Summon capability is great - especially getting in and out of tight parking situations. Adaptive cruise control and Autopilot capabilities worked very well and as advertised ... as long as you kept you hands on the wheel and pay attention to what your doing, i.e., DRIVING a car. Otherwise, especially with high performance cars - and it is one, you'll loose control and serious negative consequences will be the result. Nonetheless, for the money it cost, there are three areas that should be improved: Parallel/perpendicular parking function is too slow and requires too much space to navigate on crowded, busy streets; HVAC system vents and control need modification - vents should be larger and controls should provide an interior temperature reading they do not (and a more accurate outside temperature reading); Wheel hubs are made from base carbon steel that oxidize's (rust's) and look cheap, not inexpensive, cheap - a service ranger spray painting them silver once a year is not the answer. Fix it. Run silent = Besides road noise and a philharmonic music system- it is as quite as advertised. Run deep = 85,000 Watts of electrical power driving a 350 Watt AC (470 hp/430 lb ft of torque equivalent) motor for 265 trip miles or 240 local commuter miles, at 70 mph driving speed average (87 mpg equivalent) per 100%/90% charge respectively, via a state-of-the-art hyper-sophisticated computer system; Run fast = 0-60 in less than 4 seconds without using ludicrous mode and 155 mph max in a heart beat. Good car.
