Tesla Model S "Will Be Faster Than A Porsche 911"

Really excited about the potential of the Model S and electric cars generally, but a little disappointed to see this marketing angle. Carreras aren't exactly known as supercars for their speed. It's a full second slower than everything making the Wikipedia list of fastest production cars (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_fastest_cars_by_acceler...)

Electric motors have the most torque right at 0 RPM, so their acceleration off the line is much higher than an "equivalent" gas-burning engine.
