I collect classic Porsches, and restored a 1986 air cooled G body, which is loving cars on hard mode.
If you like Tesla, I'm not going to Yuck your Yum. But, please understand, there is such a wider world out there of cars and racing. I'm glad we're moving to EVs, but Tesla is objectively a very flawed company with a flawed product.
The Tesla pinball machine would have missing parts, giant panel gaps, and you would not be able to fix it yourself.
Quoted from jeffro01:And an average Tesla would absolutely smoke you (even a hellcat if that's what that is, hard to tell)... A Model S Plaid+ would embarrass you. It's funny you say Tesla doesn't make something that fits your needs then you post a completely average Dodge... LOL What needs do you have? Going slow? LOL
JUST KIDDING... Hellcats are awesome cars, but you're still limited by throttle response.

It would smoke you in a straight line. A few times. Then the battery would overheat and the performance would plummet.
Going fast in a straight line is not the only relevant metric of a high performance car. There is steering feel (Tesla is electronic, which many serious car people dislike), handling, weight, and 1000 other factors.
One of my favorite Porsches I own is my $6000 Boxster. It's not fast, but it is tossable and light. With the top down on a warm day, it's the best car I own, and it cost a fraction as much as my high performance track toys.
Again, I have no issue with Tesla - but as it is with pinball, what is "best" depends on who it's for and what they value.
