Just saw Tesla has the long awaited options info for the Model S on their website.
A couple things I found very disappointing about the 160 mile version:
0 to 60 in 6.5
I was always under the impression the 0 to 60 would be 5.6. Granted, they never specifically stated this, but they said 0 to 60 was 5.6 and gave no indication it depended on battery size. Given the fact that they are taking people's (refundable) money and not clearly explaining this I feel is deceptive and a poor way to treat your prospective customers.
No supercharging
To me this is huge. You will never be able to go on a trip with a 160 mile version. Seriously guys?
That, and you have to pay $3750 if you want turn by turn navigation on your giant touchscreen. Not cool Tesla. Not cool.
