Fast, sexy and eco-friendly
No, not me — I’m talking about the Tesla Roadster (hat-tip to Wilka for the link).
At just $75k (plus shipping and import tax), it’s relatively cheap too. Obviously, it’s not cheap full-stop, but if you compare like with like — sexy, roadster, 0-60 in 4 secs — you’re looking at a Gallardo Spyder, which costs $250k. Quite a difference.
I really hope this car is a success. Judging by the interest they’ve had, it looks like it might be, but you can never really tell till they post a profit. Venture capital will be all that’s keeping the company afloat for now. Anyway, we need this kind of car, if we’re to keep motoring into the later part of this century. Or rather, I need it if I’m to continue loving my driving. Fingers crossed... :)
