Is this from the article?
not at all. for many, and i mean MANY, the thrill of driving a FERRARI will never be outdone by an electric 4 door sedan, now matter how fast the electric car is.

Agreed. They are Garage Queens for a reason.

Those brains, unfortunately, are still being perfected....and probably will be for quite some time. Several companies are actually sharing in that process, including Google.

Sorry, you guys are correct: the Porsche has 30K reservations. I did read the 300K number somewhere the day before and was astonished. But 30K is still pretty impressive.

Brutal acceleration to me is a "feh." It would have been an extremely cool feature to me back when I was 16, but in real life, how relevant? Top 3 features to me at this stage of my life are: (1) comfort, (2) luxury, and (3) handling.
