I recently purchased a 991 911 Carrera S and previously owned a 987 Boxster that I tracked. I actually did cross shop the cars and had a deposit down on the Model S before it was even released. Ended up not getting the Model S b/c its simply to big to drive in SF and it was questionable if I could get my condo to let me install a charger.

The model S is no sports car but its rather capable and the low center of gravity helps negate its massive curb weight.

As far as the car not making it around MRLS, thats not true. Every year speed ventures puts on an EV day and there are certainly Model S in attendance: http://www.refuelraces.com/
