The dead-sexy Tesla delivers on its promise
In a test drive, the speedy, electric roadster shows what all the fuss is about.

ALL right, no beating around the high-voltage bush: What is the Tesla Roadster, the dead-sexy, six-figure, all-electric sports car prototype like to drive?
It's hard to be definitive, since the company could only allow me a 45-minute romp around Marina del Rey earlier this week and also because the prototype I drove has been loved half to death since the car was unveiled at the Santa Monica Airport in July.
anything with testimonials that quote fat ba$tard are worth checking out!
i'd heard of this car, mostly from my interest in tesla. i've often wondered why electric cars weren't out as sports cars, given their full torque available all the time and their low weight for cornering etc.
have to follow this one.
