I love my M3 and will be keeping it, but I ordered one of these. It's a very utilitarian vehicle that's fast as shit, can go off-road, may have the ability to regenerate 30-45 miles a day with a solar setup (Elon tweeted this as a possibility), and I can drive my Ducati up the back of it. Yeah the design is polarizing, but given it's not body on frame, it's an exoskeleton, it was necessary from an engineering perspective for rigidity.
I applaud Tesla for being creative and pushing accepted norms outside of (clearly) most people's comfort zone.
Safety is a valid concern and I'm curious how the testing goes by NHTSA.
