So I take it if things work out well for you, you might consider another electric car down the road? Personally, I wouldn't mind getting one myself, but I want something sporty to drive. Life's too short to drive something boring. Unfortunately, right now the only option is the Model S or maybe a used Tesla Roadster, both out of the question for price.
I probably wouldn't worry too much about long term reliability. Both batteries and electric motors are easy to replace, or so I've heard, and as electric cars become more common the components will become cheaper too.
