What kind of car is that?

2013 Tesla model S ... performance version. They also have a standard version with a bit less power.

416 hp @ 5,000 rpm

442 lb ft of torque from 0 to 15,000 rpm. Gotta love an electric motors torque curve or lack thereof. :)

Very aerodynamic as well due to the lack of front grill and flat bottom.

Consumer Reports just gave Tesla their best rating. I would love to own one. I think they are beautiful.

I as well. But don't have $100,000 to purchase. :(

that S10 is sick.... I want one...lol

It is pretty cool but the experience watching it is so odd with out the engine noise.. Just hear the tires ripping at the pavement :crazy:

I also looked at the cost involved in doing one of these conversions and it is a bit higher than I anticipated. Well at least if you want something faster than a moped...
