Next week, Tesla will officially open its first store in California. The Tesla Roadster is an all electric sports car that tops at nearly $125,000 when fully loaded. The company, armed with $40 million investment, has has some powerful investors including the two founders of Google, Larry Page and Sergey Brin.

It can go about 225 miles one one charge and can be fully charged in 3.5 hours.

I’d love to have a Tesla, but Im guessing i don’t have the star power to get on that waiting list! Its nice to see sports cars jumping on the green bandwagon…Regular gas powered cars can do their part to stretch their mpg by by getting frequent oil changes and changing air filters….K&Ns have been ok for my truck…(K&N filters)

It’s nice to see them finally making green cars that are actually nice looking. If they can make these more affordable they will have a hit on their hands.

I have seen Top Gear covering this car and I think this is a step to help preserve the world. A car that looks great and drives good as some supercars. Just hope they can improve the battery life and lower down the cost then you would see people get into electric cars and let the petrol heads covert to this new world changing car.

If only Tesla could build a car that is affordable for an average auto buyer.
