Read an auto story today about the writer taking a P85D on a trip. He had to stop every 200 miles to supercharge for an hour. All for only $80,000.

These are nothing but expensive toys.

If Porsche/Tesla/etc really wanted to change the world, they would offer a 3-series sedan with 350 miles of range with a 5 min full recharge that sells for $40K. Until that happens, e-cars are curiosities, not real transportation.
