On 2.5 Men - Charlie was bitching that the husband of a wife he was having sex sex with was driving one of those. He couldn't hear him pull up to the house.

Luckily, he stepped on a cat before making it to the bedroom

Wowwww....nice accents!
LED's remind me of the R8
Alcantara interior nice....and the shift gate looks sweet - but is it automatic?!?
CF intake nice!
The rims look like Aicona Alc 36's on my M6

Do they make electric cars with manuals?

It's a single speed, no shifting required. I don't think the lack of a manual transmission takes away from the experience, but rather enhances it. To each his or her own, but don't knock it till you've tried it.

If you crank up the tunes, (looking at that amp) how would this affect how far can you drive?

I do it all the time. Probably why I need a hearing aid at age 27, lol. The biggest drain on the battery is actually having the a/c or heat on full blast for the entire time you're driving. It shortens your range by about 10%. I rarely use a/c or heat. I prefer to take the top off or turn the heated seats on.

Better put your top back on. You might cause some truckers to drive off the road.

the interior is awesome!

"The two-seater is refined with weight-optimized BRABUS Monoblock S light-alloy wheels in size 7Jx18 in front and in size 8.5Jx19 in back. BRABUS technology partner Pirelli provides the corresponding P Zero Nero high-performance tires in size 215/35 ZR 18 in front and in size 255/30 ZR 19 on the rear axle. These tires were developed to deliver minimum rolling resistance."

we should be able to fit 255s also then.
