    Vanity Fair-Is the Tesla Model S the Most Important Car of the 21st Century?

    Some high praise from Vanity Fair magazine (I like the title of the article):

    Is the Tesla Model S the Most Important Car of the 21st Century? | Style | Vanity Fair

    Always great when someone recognizes the Tesla Model S as a game changer!

    Yeah. But not so great when a car review forces me to look up movie stills from obscure French films to figure out what he's talking about. Still, an honest and enthusiastic review. I enjoyed it.

    I'm guessing that if you're a Vanity Fair subscriber, you've watched all those films and would know the meaning without research.

    Thanks for posting this Vanity Fair article, Prime Mover.
    A very positive, glowing endorsement of the Model S by such a mag will help spread the word.

    I took possession of a Model S Founders #30 two weeks ago and I couldn't agree more. It's probably the most significant advancement in Automotive technology since, well the beginning. Beyond being a sensational car, it is very clear it is a new platform and the beginning of a fork in the road for automotive innovation.
