    Thee are a lot of things about the teslas that are not up to scratch for "supercar" status. Check out the burger ring times, they are usually pretty good at hiding those impressive 0-60 dashes. They are heavy and they still like to overheat under proper sustained duress. At this particular point in time teslas look a lot more like old american muscle cars in performance than sports cars. Elon musk is clearly a closet drag racer.

    That's performance sedan range, which Tesla is. It doesn't matter what that extra 100km/h actually adds but it's an essential part of what makes a super car, you know, actually superior compared to normal cars.

    What light weight? It weights 2.2 tons. -.- And the performance just isn't there. The car is slow as fuck on a track and just horrible to drive.

    Just my opinion but mere fast 0-60 time isn't enough to justify it being called super car. It's "luxury" sedan.

    My list would be a mile long because they are so many beautiful/cool cars out there.

    Kind of wonder why they bothered making it so pretty, it is by far the best looking aston imo.

    I would really like a McLaren F1, but my spouse tells me some bullshit about that being "outside our budget."

    Alternatively, I would like a unicorn. I think I have about equal odds of getting either.

    That 760hp is old data I think. There was the whole fiasco with falsely reported reading where Tesla combined the front and rear motor horse powers to get unrealistic total amount. They later had to change 691hp of the P85D to 463hp and from what I can see they advertise the ludicrous mode as "extra 50hp" so go figure.

    Still doesn't change the fact that it's really heavy car. What I meant by terrible to drive is the lack of steering feel and feedback to the road. Don't get me wrong it's perfectly fine for a luxury sedan to have comfort oriented steering and chassis but it cripples it's performance aspect. And when I say performance I don't mean only pure acceleration.

    Of course it's all very subjective. There's no right answer since it's all very much personal opinions but I think a lot of people would agree that you just can't call it a super car when all it really got for itself is the acceleration (and technological advancement). It's a cool thing nonetheless though don't get me wrong.

    Why this one you may ask? Well:

    1. Muscle Car
    2. Fast AF
    3. Historic and rare
    4. Pop-up headlights (very rare for this time)
    5. Huge spoiler (stock!)
    6. Featured in my second favorite movie of all time, Joe Dirt

    The one car (err, well their IS the Plymouth Superbird, but that was slightly more common and well known, as well as not featured in a beloved film) that has all the features I look for in a car in one package.

    Dream that might come true soon: Toyota GT86 or Subaru BRZ, wrapped and done up.

    1 that probably never will: Lamborghini gallardo/aventador
