2013 Mercedes-Benz SL 550 vs. 2012 BMW 650i Track Test Video -- Inside Line

The 2013 Mercedes-Benz SL550 AMG is the newest player in the premium sport convertible segment and with a base price of over $100,000 and an all-new 429-horsepower twin-turbo V8, it ticks both of those boxes handily. The trouble is, BMW also has a twin-turbo V8-powered luxury sport convertible in the form of the 2012 BMW 650i. It has more seats and costs less, but the 4.4-liter V8 in the BMW only makes 400 horsepower and 450 pound feet of torque.

See blog for full review at http://www.reviewsbyowner.com
This is a test drive of a Tesla Model S Performance Edition in Chicago, on 7/28/12. I made my reservation on a Model S in May of 2009 and have been waiting over 3 years to drive it for the first time. As you know, the Performance Edition has an 85kWh battery and offers amazing acceleration of 0-60mph in 4.4 seconds. The test car was electronically limited to 80mph, and it pulled strong until it hit that limit. One word sums it up - amazing. I had high expectations before the test drive, since I read practically every review article I could find before going in, and the test drive still exceeded my expectations by a mile. My car will arrive in fall of 2012, and I can't wait to get it.
I have written up a detailed review covering the following topics, including how it compares with sport SUV's I've driven. Since YouTube has a limit on the length of video description, please read the full details here:
http://www.reviewsbyowner.com
1. Power
2. Smoothness
3. Noise Level
4. Fun Factor
5. Ride Controls
6. Regenerative Braking
7. Steering Wheel
8. Door Handles
9. Space
10. Back Seat Floor
11. Trunk Space
12. Wheel Options
13. Remote Key
14. How to Start the Car
15. Traction Control
16. Visibility
17. Gear Shift Stick
Overall, I simply can't wait to take delivery of my car. One big problem I see is how to deal with all the speeding tickets I'm going to get. Oh well, with great power comes great responsibility.

Fisker Karma: An Owner's Review
I received my Karma in December 2011, and after putting 2200 miles on the car I decided to do this very complete and comprehensive review of the car. I apologize for the length of this review, but this is actually the short version. I had a lot to talk about, and this was the shortest I could edit it down while retaining most of the important stuff.
