Also, didn't I once hear that the Swarovski crystal is like 1/3 lead? I assume this isn't actually an issue, since they're allowed to sell this kind of stuff, but it still seems like an odd thing to put in your eye.
electric cars are gay babbies because they will never sound as good as a traditional sports car, ever.
the tesla actually makes zero sound under acceleration
zero
fuck that
t vann are you kidding me? the way the car sounds is one of the most important aspects. maybe if you have no soul it's not.

That Atom is a brilliant car. That's a fucking honda civic engine.
Also I'm not hating on the Tesla roadster its a cool car, but we don't know the ramifications yet. Also I do not want to pay to replace those batteries when they start to lose their charge. Especially after I just paid $100,000 for the car itself.
I also simply took offense to the comment that an Aston Martin DBS means I have terrible automobile tastes.
The way a car sounds is not of the of the most important aspects. especially not in this case
"oh hey look at this innovative technology and a starting point for which we can start to break off from using gasoline this could be really good. it runs really good and is an awesome car"
"nah fuck dat it don't purr like mah beauty over therr"
at this point is where I'd imagine the fucker pointing at his high end sports car that uses way too much gas and is essentially to make up for his penis size

Seriously, for 100,000 dollars you could buy something that is ACTUALLY cool.
edit: ooooh, i see, you're pretentious. i'll just be over here then.
Also, Tesla wasn't able to work out the problems with it's two-speed transmission. They're all being produced with one-speeds now. And that's with only a 240hp motor.

If you can afford a Tesla Roadster you can afford gas to put in a car. Any car.
I'm going to clarify by saying that I don't think the Tesla Roadster is something people should buy, simply that saying "electric cars are gay" just because they don't sound like traditional sports car is dumb
then again I am not truly a sports car person. I want something that runs well and is affordable in the long run. I tend to think this is the sensible opinion to have

Except are you retarded? It's a sports car, not a Prius. The Tesla is fast, but i need to hear an engine note for it to evoke an emotional response from me, and the Tesla does not have an engine note.
And guess what, the Tesla is basically an electric Lotus Elise. They licensed the platform from Lotus. So hey, I'll just get an Elise for 45 grand, which itself does decent mileage (4cyl toyota engine) and i can spend the rest of the money on gas and tires. Oh and also it's not limited to 125mph top speed like the Tesla.

The Tesla Roadster. $100,000 awesome and not a single drop of gasoline. 0-60 in 4 seconds.

Don't bother, look at the shitty hardware specs on them. Looks sexy, but god damn is it mild.

You tell 'im. It's a good thing gasoline never explodes, right?
Bopped.
Also the only type of battery I have heard of ever exploding was Apple's laptop battery. :P
I would but their damn site won't load for me
This is what i'm going to buy when I become rich.
instead of a french woman.
really?
I suppose you could sling a loudspeaker under your rear bumper and broadcast the proper engine noises based on current acceleration and RPMs.

That's not the point, the point is that even rich people want to be green and have fun.
Besides. All the money that these current teslas are going for goes back into design and development for progressively cheaper cars.
And there is a fact that to get a tesla there is a current year and a half waiting list. :P
