Except possibly top speed ( who no sane person ever uses ....) Paganis people buy to get a bespoke hand built very special car , there's is no metrics anymore there , just look and feel again. Cars is maybe not a good analogy or yes it migth be ? there is very much an emotional and design thing , petrolheads moan about the noise cars make ? Just look at any modern even budget cars , they are all very designed .,living proof that the economical theory about consumer making rational decisions is wrong . OT If I could afford a model s I would get one , just waiting to see what model 3 or other electrical cars will be at in a couple of years .. IMO I think fossil fuel cars is the new CRT TV I would not buy one new it's worth 50$ on eBay in a couple of years . I think we are at the brink of a paradigm shift regarding cars . Even more OT about the irrational side of all of us . The Nissan Leaf would be a rational choice for an electric car , but it is so ugly that I rather order my razor and cyanid pizza now :) -------------------------------------------------------------------- Main hifi: Touch + CIA PS +MeridianG68J MeridianHD621 MeridianG98DH 2 x MeridianDSP5200 MeridianDSP5200HC 2 xMeridianDSP3100 +Rel Stadium 3 sub.
