So the lowest selling brand of the three sold more than twice as many cars in its worst month in the 1st 1/4 of 2013 than Tesla did in all 3 combined. I don't know about the rest of you, but I wouldn't really call that Tesla 'beating' those other companies.

Very good point. Though if I remember right didn't Car & Driver give the Tesla S a 99 out of 100 rating?
