I've been trying very hard to sell an MS to anyone. A friend was in town from ABQ who is a "fast car guy." he always has something in the garage that goes fast. Right now he has a SMS AMG GT (2013).
After breakfast one day we had about 15 miles to the golf course on a mostly flat (little traffic) and smooth county road. I asked him if he'd like to drive the 2013 COTY. He said yes, and reminded me that he likes fast cars and is a somewhat aggressive driver and just can't help himself. I told him that my "understanding" was that my P85 is relatively fast but it's never been over 85mph. I told him to "drive it like you stole it."
I grabbed his rental (Camry) and he jumped in the MS. As soon as we got on the county road he took off like a rocket.
When we got to the course he said: "I'm getting one of these." He said "just driving it makes you smile." I explained the Tesla Grin. Then I told him about the P85+with limited details. He said matter of factly: "That's the one I'm getting. And, oh by the way your car will do at least 105mph. At least that's what I saw when I finally looked down."
Not official yet, but I'm pretty sure I finally sold one!
