Looks like after the launch the Ferrari catches up in a hurry.



from the article:
The Tesla has a more powerful engine, but is much heavier than the Ferrari. During these runs, there were two people in the Tesla and one person in the Ferrari.

Moral of the story is, if you want a performance car, buy a Tesla

I'd love to know how fast they were going before the 458 started being quicker.

It sounds like he was past fourth gear when he caught the Tesla.

In a different vid, the Tesla does the same to an Aventador. I guess I should take one for a drive. Where's the Melbourne dealer? Should I see anyone specific there?

Just go to the Tesla website and hit the "book a test drive" button. You will get a phone call from California by some dude who has the available test slots to hand. They operate out of the Langham hotel in the city where they have 2 cars doing test drives every day.

They do. It's on the ground floor outside Myer. Packed when I went there on the 26th.
