I agree with your words. But Tesla car is a good electric car at an affordable price.
I never argued that. If you look at my first post on this thread (#54) you'll see I stated I don't like electric cars and I don't have the money. Never said a single word about quality or cost.
To make it more clear: about 80% of the electricity generated in the US is fossil fuel derived, so "in theory", you're saving 20% carbon emissions, at the very best. In reality, once you factor in conversion losses, that number quickly becomes negligible.
On the other hand (affordability wise), the moment you buy an electric car you're assuming the cost of replacement batteries, and they're not cheap. I have personally seen (an acquaintance bought it) an Acura Integra that had gone 279000 miles on nothing but consumables (oil, filters, spark plugs, brakes), just because its previous owner was very rigorous on its maintenance. Try that with an electric car.
And, finally, there are the technology's "other" shortcomings. Lack of charging points, time to charge, danger, and so on. I'm sure most of them (if not all) will be addressed in due time, but they're not there yet. As I said it before, there are other technologies that could be applied
today, to existing vehicles, with minimal or no modifications, and have been proven to work from the very beginning.
. I wouldn't doubt the same thing happened with Bitcoin.. someone probably called him a tool or didn't do whatever he wanted, he got butthurt, spit his narcissistic fire attacking with whatever he could, then walked away. 
love ya Elon. /sarcasm
