I'm pretty sure Tesla's 0 - 60 times are using the 1 foot rollout method. So not sure it will actually do a true 0 - 60 in under 2 seconds.

Still stupid fast anyways. 9.2 second 1/4 mile. Dang. Wish it had a bit more look to separate it from a lesser model S.

Any ideas when they are going to refresh the look completely. Nice looking car still, but has been around for a long while.

True, but with electric insta-torque AWD it makes a lot less of a difference than any ICE vehicle.

I’ve challenged every Tesla I’ve come across to a race. New York to Chicago and back. Go!

I still hate the ugly things. I’ll hold onto ICE as long as I can.

All go and no show. A very impressive transportation appliance. Should go over well with the gadget and pocket protector crowd. I'll pass since I prefer something that will help me INCREASE my carbon footprint and does so at an obnoxious decibel level.

Lol, different strokes for different folks - I'm putting cats on my car to tone it done even more and reduce the smell

Bartbart · 06-12-2021, 07:12 PM

What exhaust set up does it have?

Lou gill · 06-13-2021, 07:51 AM

Real fast until you add a corner!

It's impressive but they need to update that 10 year old exterior modeling already.
