As we say goodbye to the model that made them famous, we bid a warm hello to the Model S, Tesla’s first in-house developed sedan. Well ahead of the on-sale date next year, the California carmaker has announced full pricing and options for the electric car.
There are only two trim levels available, the basic one and Performance. For the base car, there are three different output battery versions, the with 40 kWh, 60 kWh and 85 kWh, priced at $57,400, $67,400 and $77,400 respectively, all eligible to benefit from a $7,500 tax credit.

The range-topping Performance-spec Model S only gets the top 85 kWh battery and is priced at $87,400 while also being eligible for the tax credit. Extras you can ask for include a $1,500 panoramic roof, and also the very attractive-sounding Tech Package ($3,750) that includes a 16GB hard drive, rear USB ports, LED fog lights, Xenon headlamps, turn-by-turn navigation system, high-def back-up camera, power hatch and keyless entry.

Mihnea's favorite cars have already been built, the so-called modern classics from the '80s and '90s. He also loves local car culture from all over the world, so don't be surprised to see him getting excited about weird Japanese imports, low-rider VWs out of Germany, replicas from Russia or LS swaps down in Florida.
