Yes, thats true.

A few problems though.. First; it costs about 50k more. Second; it's electric and no fun. Third; that's 3 years away. Fourth; Elon is almost sure to under deliver, you can't have 600 mile range if you drive it "fun" aka racing, drag, etc. He can't completely change battery technology in 3 years. Fifth; no chance in hell I'm putting aside purchasing a car for over 3 years on some empty promise, only to buy a car with no emotion or fun. Sorry, but that's a horrible idea.

I have been in a P90D (not the newest one) and while the launch is insane. It's not all that fun, it feels like you are getting launched on a roller coaster.
