What’s better than a car that runs purely on electricity? An electric car that looks like a little Ferrari. Yes, no longer will your friends make fun of how geeky your electric/hybrid car looks if your willing to shell out the small house price for this magnificent work of art. At a mere $101,500 the Tesla Roadster can be yours! Lets take a look at some of the fun facts about this new amazing machine:

*0-60 in 3.7 seconds
*245 miles per charge!
*plugs into any outlet!
*zero emissions
*optional 7 inch touch screen with Navi and backup assist.

All of this in a fully electric car you say? I was amazed when i saw what this thing can do, at 288 horsepower and 295lbs of torque this thing will break your neck with a pedal to the metal response.

It looks cooler than a Porsche and drives faster than most of the models. At $101k it is quite pricey but we should all marvel at the fact that we can have such a fun car that is healthy for our environment and saves $$ on gas at the same time. If this is the direction that the auto industry is heading count me in. I’m sure in due time there will be much more affordable fully electric cars out there that are practical and fun as well.
