Most Expensive Tesla (TSLA) Model S Comes in at Over $200K

Tesla Motors (Nasdaq: TSLA) Model S starts in the mid-$60,000 range, with most being bought at a price around $90,000 to $100,000. But, what's the most expensive Model S you can build?

Teslarati.com notes that, after clicking all the options available to buyers, the most expensive Model S will run you $205,820, or more than twice as much as the normal vehicle.

Notably, most of the cost behind the pricy Model S comes from aftermarket accessories made by TSportline, which bills itself as the AMG of Tesla. (AMG is the high-performance brand of Daimler/Mercedes-Benz. Like SRT used to be for Dodge before calling itself a separate unit.) You don't really get a performance boost from the upgrades (most are just interior/exterior enhancements), so it's not clear how the company would relate to AMG. Maybe they'll run a tuning kit for the Model S sometime in the future.

The site also has a nice real-time, interactive Supercharger map. It should be worth a bookmark if you're a Tesla fan.

Shares of Tesla are up 1.6 percent early.
