    To drive the Tesla Roadster Sport is to learn the meaning of range anxiety.

    The souped-up version of Tesla's Roadster does not want for range: Apply a feather touch on the accelerator and you'll get some 236 miles on a charge. That's by far the best of the electric cars on the road or on the horizon.

    But you're not going to go easy. Stomping that go pedal is too much fun.

    yeah.... If you got $120K to blow on a car I'm sure most folks would rather be rocking one that says Ferrari or Bentley and $10 isn't crap for them

    It's a good thing the car manufacturers are doing. If they can make speedy cars, it will appeal more to the US I think. Now they just need to create enough power to replace trucks.......

    Seriously, if you want to impress people, make an electric car that gets better range with less power, slap 4 doors on it and make it nondescript like a Corolla, and sell it for $15,000 to $20,000. The world would be changed overnight.
