The owner of my shop has a Model S Peformance will all options. I have driven it a few times around town and commuted to work in it...about 30 minutes. The torque is amazing off the line. Combine that with the lack of noise and one gear, it is a very unique and thrilling ride. The regenerative braking is easy to get familiar with. Braking with the brake pedal is almost none existant. Freeway driving is like most other cars in its class.
A routine is needed on the charging or you will not have energy one day when you need it. We just plug it in at work during the day and when you get home overnight. 220v is a must.
The simple interior is ok. The large screen makes the interior. The front seats should be improved with better support. They are comfortable, but not to the standards as the rest of the car. The body and paint are very good.
Overall, I like the car. The exterior styling and quality is top notch. The interior is ok with an awesome screen. The driving is fun. Lots of torque and no sound. Low center of gravity and firm suspension gives a ride quality I like. Buy it for $100K? If you have it, I would.
