Raced a Maserati GHIBLI and WON! | Forums | Tesla Motors
Few things I found funny are.
1. December 2013. Weren't there already tons of Tesla out there, especially in California? I am surprised that those multi-million, platinum record artists would be that curious about the car,
2. Did it race a Base model or the SQ4? I know that Tesla is a quick car from 0-60, but to totally smoke a SQ4, I found that hard to believe. Another thing is it depends on the driver. A year ago, I stopped at a red light with my 2013 Porsche 991 S. Next to me is a young kid driving a older Pontiac G6 with ONE huge muffler pipe sticking out. He reved the engine to try to signal for a race. I decided to entertain him a little and floor the gas pedal when the light turned green. But a little after 2 seconds, I let go the gas because the street is so uneven and full of potholes and I did not want to risk damaging the wheels. So he thought he won the race and gave me a stupid look at the next stop light. He probably went home and posted a thread bragging that his base model G6 (since it only has a single muffler tip) beat a Porsche 911.
3. Not that I condone street racing, but it is funny that many responses are condemning him for doing this. I like Tesla, but I think it attracts people who are more about being green and safe.
4. One of the comment says "GHIBLI is a slow non performance car. I would hope you'd win easily.". I think he must be a Ghibli hater.
