Tesla opens shop in Manhattan

The showroom is in fact, a former art gallery and if you happen to pass by it, you’re more than likely to make a double take considering the entire area is full of these said galleries.

Nevertheless, who are we to second guess Tesla’s decision? The showroom actually looks pretty good and is in line with the whole theme of the area. It’s dressed more as a boutique than a traditional car dealership. So don’t expect to come in the store and just drive off with a new Tesla right off the bat. The boutique/showroom doesn’t have stock cars available but they do have some that would-be customers can test drive around the block. Should you wish to purchase yourself one of these bad boys - which, incidentally, costs around $101,500 – you’re going to have to place orders just like the rest of its customers.

Don’t worry; Tesla has a spotless record when it comes to delivering its vehicles. The company has said that it has sold 1,200 cars and has delivered 550 to 600 of them.
