I'm sure many of you have seen this, but for those who haven't, I present the Tesla Model S (aka my next car) Model S | Tesla Motors

For a second car, because no way an electric vehicle could ever be my only car, its absolutely perfect. For starters, it looks amazing! Second, it has an advertised 0-60 time of 5.6 seconds. Third, it uses no gas! And while I usually don't care much about the fuel I burn (we wont get into how much gas my boats burn) it would be nice to not have to fill up a little commuter car. And with the current government rebate of $7,500 its UNDER $50k.

Its perfect for a family of two (girlfriend + me) as it can get us around town while looking good, I would imagine its also fun to drive, and cut down on the fuel bill. Either I would drive it to the train station daily (less than 2miles each way) or my girlfriend would take it to the hospital for work (about 10miles each way). We would also use it to drive locally (going out to dinner, trip to the boat, visit parents/friends, grocery store, etc) and of course keep the X5 for anything longer like road trips etc.

Thoughts??
