"But the interiors are awful."
This cannot be overstated. The interiors are indeed awful.
The interior of a maxed out Model S approaches the fit, finish, materials and features of the low end germans (A4, 3Series, Cclass) from below.
In fact, while I find it hard to believe, it appears that many Model S drivers are driving their very first expensive car. Forum comments/postings make it very clear that they are not comparing these cars to others in their price category (A8, etc.)
- jsgo 9y agoI don't find that hard to believe, personally. I buy Hondas (well, Honda as mine has run for quite a while and I've been happy with it). The only expensive car I would currently consider would be a Model S if I felt that I could afford it without causing any issues. I have zero interest in another similarly priced car. Now, if Honda or others were to introduce electric cars with substantial promise in reliability, driving distance, look? I may even strike Tesla from the list of automobiles I would have interest in. So there are probably quite a few people who moved up in income at around the time the Model S became a highly rated car and that is what you're seeing.
- greglindahl 9y agoYeah, I'm that kind of Tesla buyer. I don't give a shit about fit, finish, and materials of the interior. I wouldn't know good fit, finish, or materials if they bit me on the ass.
