![]() ![]() You can see (and enjoy) the transformation from Matchbox to a freak of a toy in the video below. One of them is called Jakarta Diecast Project ( JDP), and his latest stunt is the conversion of a Matchbox Model S into a Plaid, and with touches of hardcore rocket bunny coolness. turning your run-of-the-mill S14 into a '70s-era Plymouth Barracuda/Dodge Challenger clone. ![]() Now, this one also comes as a non-Plaid Model S, but you can have it customized by one of the many guys and gals who make a living out of this. The Rocket Bunny kit, in all of its versions, includes a front lip, rear diffuser. And there are some other replicas out there in the toy world, including some made from 2015 to 2020 by Matchbox. Sadly, not all of us have over $120,000 sitting around doing nothing in our bank accounts, so we're left with drooling over news of Plaids doing cool stuff out there.įor those who can’t afford a real Tesla, but badly want or need one, Elon Musk’s company also sells a diecast Model S (non-Plaid, if it matters), for $175. It’s blistering fast on the drag strip as well, and if you somehow nail that perfect run, you could do the quarter-mile in exactly 9.23 seconds, which is kind of the drag strip’s version of teleportation. A tri-motor configuration makes it the quickest accelerating car in production today, with a claimed 1.99 seconds needed to reach 60 mph from a standstill. ![]() Of all the Teslas you can get your hands on (and of pretty much all other electric cars out there), the Plaid is the most potent one. Sure, a Volkswagen ID.3 or a Taycan are just as electric as a Tesla, but the little European hatchback, and not even the mighty Porsche, will never provide for some people the same degree of pride that comes with having that extremely cool “T” on the car. This is an electric vehicle we’re talking about, and there are enough of them going around at the moment for people to start having preferences. ![]()
