If the Evora comes in at the $70k price point, over the course of 5 years of daily driving/fill ups @ $4.50 a gallon, you'll still have substantial coin in your pocket compared to buying a Tesla. Better green, could be debated (remember, the Tesla isn't solar charged/power). Better performance? On a track I suppose, but then again the Evora with the larger cockpit/back seat (sure it won't fit adults) makes it more "practical" than a Tesla.

And no gas bill? Wait'll you see your electric bill
