Blankenship: (re: low center of gravity) "a handling characteristic" ... "you can't understand until you get behind the wheel and hit the accelerator".

They keep teasing us. Not nice.

But intentional.

Yeh. They're evil. Like grocery markets putting all the candy in the checkout line at kid eye level.

How do you get the video to run? No apparent controls on iPad..

Try http://vimeo.com/35280284 on the iPad

They really should let us behind the wheel to hit the accelerator so we can understand

Anyone else notice that the video is very similar to a lot of the Apple product introduction videos? If you change the background color behind the men speaking to white and have them talking about iPad3 it would be the same thing.

Like the iPad videos (where they kept talking about how magical and revolutionary it was and how it felt to hold it and use it before we actually could) it really does make one want to drive one... NOW!

I'd like to see a video like this... of the Model S!

Franz Van Holtzhausen needs a shave.

He also needs a German accent. :-D

BTW, they've added wallpapers to the Model S gallery.
