It may be all-electric, but the 2010 Tesla Roadster competes against some impressive high-performance sportscars.

On the lower end of the scale, the Audi R8 carries a sticker price equal to the Tesla Roadster's, but with its standard V-8 engine, is more than a second slower to 60 mph.

An R8 Spyder is on the way too.

The closest comparable production car may be the Porsche 911 Turbo, which is faster to 60 mph by 0.2 seconds, but costs $25,000 more.

You can get the Tesla's time down to 3.7 seconds as well by adding the Sport option, but that fifth of a second will cost you $19,500.

The Porsche offers a much higher level of amenities, far more dealers and service points, plus more space for people, stuff, and luggage.

It's also better built.

And on the high end, the Ferrari F430 Spider costs $75,000 more for roughly equal performance.
