Tesla's are way to bland looking for the price they command.

Most MB owners aren't awake enough to handle a Tesla.

I took a P90 D out. Very quick but it felt like riding a vacuum cleaner. Nothing visceral, very sterile. They've got a ways to go on the interiors and just in general the way they're put together for $100k. I'd say they're a gen away from a really good sport sedan but the way they roll out improvements on the existing car I'm not sure there will be a next gen.

I just got a Mercedes S550e (Plug-in Hybrid), it has the plus of both worlds. I am very happy about the car.
