Love Tesla and the Model S is short of amazing, just wish more manufactures would adopt apple's product line mantra, simplicity.

Way to many options to choose from, make it easy guys.

Apple has a ton of SKUs. The iPad 2 alone is offered in 18 variations (White/Black, 3G/Wifi, CDMA/GSM, 16/32/64GB). Want a MacBook? There are nine models to choose from (4 Airs and 5 Pros) and each come with a bunch of customizations (CPU, RAM, HD, accesseries, etc).

But Apple tends to show off 1 or two models and let you choose the options yourself. Tesla should just focus on two models and leave the options below the fold.

They do... This is the "Options" page. Here's the Model S homepage:

Apple has gnarly comparison pages too:

I think it's hard to compare to Apple because they don't make cars. People spending > $50,000 on a car will tend to want more choices than people spending $500 on an iPad.
