We already know what the car looks like btw. This is the first delivery of the car to customers. The first cars just rolled off the factory assembly line a few weeks ago. After tonight, there will be actual humans driving it around and going to Taco Bell (not very many though, they've only made like 30 or something so far).

They are slowly scaling up production over the next 6 months. So far they've made like 10 per week as they are getting the factory calibrated and stuff. But by January it's gonna be thousands per week.

It's going to look boring. I read somewhere that they are aiming for it to look like other cars.

they are custom made to order.

it's not a question of supply, it's a question of are you ok with a waiting list.

There will still be a secondary market for them. People willing to pay extra will be able to skip a waiting list, not unlike people who pay extra to get a sold out game console right after it comes out.

You will for sure, it just might be a while before that opportunity opens up, especially if you mean directly from Tesla itself and not from a third party.

I actually like the looks of this one compared to the rest of the Tesla lineup.

But the likelihood of me buying an electric is about the same as the sun exploding tomorrow.

Might show mom though.

The car in question was the Tesla Roadster. It was their first car and was based on a Lotus, a company known for faulty cars for most of its history. The test in question was also faked to give the viewer a bad impression of electric cars since Top Gear is supposed to be a "petrol head" show.

Tesla was pissed and tried to sue for slander (they lost). If anything Tesla has great build quality in their own cars, just normal people couldn't afford a 90 K family sedan.

I know a guy with a Model S that he got back in 2012 or 13 and has put nearly 100k on it without a single problem. They're about as reliable as any other "luxury" car.

Imo, as someone who dislikes electrics, the only things wrong with Tesla's is the price point, the looks, and the "Ludicrous Mode" fanboys who won't shut up about 1/4 mile drag races.

Nice car but ultimately useless unless you live on one of the coasts. I would be able to utilize it well since my school has charging stations but out of the greater NYC area you would be fucked. No way to road trip west since you need to go through 300+ miles of PA.
