Indeed. And, just few days ago, this: http://www.teslamotors.com/about/press/r...car-ever-tested .

Other than the price, I can't think of any disadvantage of owning one of these cars. Oh, and of course, the complete lack of "gas/power" stations in EU.

As you say, I really hope Tesla takes off.

As I said before, I will have to buy a new car soon, and it is frustrating seeing Teslas and not being able to get one for one reason or the other.
