Here’s the original Tesla from 2010, including video

I’ve seen only one or two since then. The new one doesn't seem much like a "Roadster" even though it has a panel that lifts off. This seemed quite fast although we couldn't keep it for long, and had to go right back.

It seems so long ago now…

Seen a Tesla Roadster on the road today, for the first time in a very, very long time. How things changed since this was new and exciting! Curious, whether there will be another one from Tesla, or Lotus (who did the majority of the work back then) for tha

What a great experience…

It’s one of the reasons I moved primarily to the water….adventure! Especially on my supercharged jet skis. Selling my Z. Will probably (let’s face it) have to move to EV…maybe a Tesla Plaid (which gulp I might have to “share” with my wife or just maybe a

Let me tell you a little story

When I was young, out of college 5 years, I worked in a bicycle shop for a guy named Bill Holland (shown below at left, cooling his ear). We sold custom racing and touring bikes, and used a number of custom framebuilders. One named Dana had orders for hal

I guess the question is...

How much would you like a 250 mph Tesla Roadster?

The future is EV like it or not...

I have a 370 with twin turbos...the GTR was a consideration but nautical purchases preempted...Tesla has a 5 year moat due to its proprietary processor. That is when I became a shareholder @ about 550. This is no longer an argument about combustion vs EV.

Definitely the gull wing!

Not sure why anyone would buy the roadster because part of the attraction is the gull wing! No Tesla for me - the reliability is questionable and it is not so much outright speed but the way the speed is delivered that matters. The V8 of the SLS really ne

My next car will be electric!

And shockingly (pun intended), a Tesla is faster than a Mercedes Benz SLS AMG! I'll let you know when I get an SLS. They're hard to come by. And I only want a gullwing version (non roadster). I drive the supercharged E55 AMG currently, it's a great car to

Nice review Patrick, thank you

As you know I have had electric cars, hybrids, good old internal combustion motors, and I've driven the Mirai and Clarion hydrogen fuel cell vehicles. I haven't been in a model 3 although I've driven the S, the X and the roadster. The 3s are popping up ev
