Go faster with a GTR. Look cooler with a Ferrari 360. Be more comfortable in a Jag XF (R?) Want better mileage on your electric car? Leaf or something of the sort. These are all cheaper options if you're after a toy car.

Even with all its, any luxury car is a better value. When there are alternatives or the next gen battery hits the market, not just a slightly better version of what Tesla has but a carbon-iron or carbon anything, then a long range electric has real value. Out in Arizona at 80mph or slightly more average in 100-115 degree weather and even hotter on the open highway, with air-conditioning, Id be surprised to see their biggest battery last 200 miles.
