GS is sluggish off the line but 0-60 is pretty pointless in real world situations. There's a lot more to a driving experience than that. The GS pulls well when you're already going 40+ mph, can keep up with cars it probably shouldn't

Exactly! Highway passing is where the power is and where you want it. Not racing from stop lights...

Saw a Plaid yesterday stuck in LA traffic with me, completely useless but I still want to own one someday.
Model S has a gorgeous shape to it.
Lowered a bit via software makes it perfect.
Build quality, not so much.....

Funny thing, at the track it will launch well and consistent. A bit more on the top end will make it perfect. I am surprised once in a while from an occasional need to pass something on the freeway.

the Model S still looks good and modern a decade later with not many exterior changes
