When the Tesla S was still pretty new, I parked next to one and talked to the driver as we both got out of our cars at the same time. I asked him how he liked it, and he complained that it didn't have enough storage space in the interior, for things like a phone and other loose objects. I then asked him how it drove, and he looked at me with a bewildered expression.

"What do you mean?"

"You know, does it drive and handle well?"

"Uh, I guess it drives and handles well. I just wish it had more space for my phone and wallet."

That's a typical answer from a poll of one Tesla driver, so I guess they are all like that!

Actually, now that I think about it, I also talked to a Tesla 3 driver at a track day, and he really thought it was the bomb. He enthusiastically told me that it handled great and was really fast. I know they are quick off the line, but when I asked how fast he was going at the end of the straight, he beamed and said "103 miles per hour!!". I was gratified that was about 30 mph slower than I was going in my Boxster.
