Fast - most cars that cost that much are fast.

quiet - one of the selling points of expensive cars are how great their engines sound.

beautiful - I don't think it's look compare to an Aston Martin or Maserati. Maybe that's just me.

high status - mostly because they are so new and rare at this point.

I can't commen on the others because I honestly don't know.



It's much faster than other cars in its class. It has supercar worthy acceleration and handling (thanks to that low battery pack it hugs the ground like you have wings).

It's not a sports car, luxury cars pride themselves on what you can't hear.


"It's much faster than other cars in its class."

Well, the best performing option does have excellent acceleration (4.4s to 60) - but they aren't actually that fast in terms of top speed - 130mph. Of course, that is pretty irrelevant to most of us who don't have unrestricted Autobahns to drive on.


"It's not a sports car, luxury cars pride themselves on what you can't hear."

Are you saying people buy a maserati for what they can't hear?

I'm not arguing that it is a bad car. I just don't think we can say it blows away all cars on its luxury and performance.

In other words its not the end all be all of cars.
