I agree with all you noted; did you test the P70D? I could not believe the straight line acceleration, but then where can you drive like that; not here in OC or LA?
I also noticed when you turn off all the audio; the electric motor sound is very evident with a lot of high pitched wine.
But it is an impressive ride to say the least, a real automotive break-through. I do question the longevity of the company; most all sales are in California, very few outside large metro areas and the numbers are very low.
My buddy has one and the problems grow as the car ages; they used to give him a free demo for service, but now they call Uber to give him a ride. At the event the Tesla employees were very open about all the cost cut-backs they have to deal with. I look for Tesla to get acquired or focus on charging stations or other products in the future.
