Anyone here buy a tesla before?

All electric cars in our canadian winter climes is a bad idea. Ask anybody that owns one.
 
If you're going to be travelling constantly, don't forget that recharge times can be a killer.

Oh wow. That interest rate is killer. Too bad they don't have any 0% events. They would fly out the door then.

They don't want to have them fly out the door... IIRC Tesla offers a guaranteed buy back at a certain price. They are trying to keep the values relatively high..

I wonder how much insurance for the thing costs. Probably an arm and leg in Ontario...

Da fuq.

I thought this car was to replace your "parent's" car?

Tesla is meant for the higher end of the income brackets... you know.. the ones that don't look at gas prices or shop around vigorously for insurance. You can spot them at Harry Rosen or Yorkdale/Yorkville on any given sunday.

You need to use the battery to power the heater. It's free heat from a combustion engine

Yes, I got one a new bmw and the other one gets my 2012 Elantra. I need a car too.
 
80K is the cost of the Tesla which is a new technology, prices will drop on other electric cars when then other companies catch up. id rather spend 80K on this 2004 Lamborghini Gallardo COUPE V10 5.0L, $79,995

Any idea how much it costs to maintain that thing?
 
The website says in the example "4.29% annual percentage rate".

How is that outrageous? I just came back from the Acura dealer, 2014 Acura MDX is 3.9%... so 4.29% is not particularly high...
