I am replacing my BMW750 with a Model S 85D so I am an example in point.

Good luck.

Btw, this is general question for members here that are fascinated with Tesla...

If you are Petrol heads who value excellent drive dynamics and driver involvement how can any of you value Tesla S 85D?

It is the car with the worst drive dynamics in this size class. Yes, pretty fast in single straight line attempt. I drove it on 350km long trip and car is really pure POC drive dynamics wise. My BMW M550d x drive Touring is far, far better in drive dynamics, comfort and pretty much everything important to me. 

And btw, I am not against e-cars. In fact my company will have e-Golf from next week as company city commuter.
