    Priority Given to MS&X Owners

    I'm hoping that this goes for people who have owned as well. I had S #2108 before we moved from Canada to New Zealand. At the time with warranty, service, and support in question in taking the car with us along with a massive tuition bill for my wife entering med school we chose to sell it...

    Drafty Cabin - Report issues here please!

    We saw a front windshield fogging issue during our first winter but this was rectified with the front grille retrofit that production cars received and changes to the defrost controls in software updates. Outside of that no unreasonable drafts to report from what I recall, even at -20C in range...

    Model S Signature Red - S2108 - Canada - 38,500km - $85k - SOLD

    Q: Why should I buy a Signature edition? Signature owners know how special this car and company are as they have been committed for quite some time. The production run had a lot of oversight from the engineering team and Elon himself which has resulted in a fantastic experience. When...

    Pre-Owned MS Pricing

    Haven't had any major issue so far - only things done to the car are the regular service bulletins when I brought it in for the annual service and winter tire swap. Compared to what I've heard others dealing with she seems to be built right as far as I can tell (I'm not a car guy though). It...

    Model S Signature Red - S2108 - Canada - 38,500km - $85k While normally I would tell you that selling this car would be the last thing I would do we recently received news that my wife was accepted into med school in New Zealand. With $250,000 of tuition fees headed our way not to mention a...

    Pre-Owned MS Pricing

    Has anyone seen whether there is a premium for a Signature edition? My wife just got into med school and we are shipping off to New Zealand in February. I'm looking to post S2108 up soon with around 38,000km (mostly highway) on it.

    Ontario - Poking the MPPs and HMS Host about ONroute Superchargers

    I just sent this off to my MPP, the Minister of Transportation (Glen Murray) and the ONroute contact - hope others will consider something like this as well to poke the province to take Tesla up on the Supercharger program: Ted, Sylvia, Glen, As stakeholders in the onROUTE public-private...

    Transport Canada Tesla

    Only the government would re-invent a classifieds site with an even worst user experience than Craigslist. :S

    Six Months Today: Life with a Model S at 6 Months

    Nice. We hit 20,000km with ours this past weekend. Still as much fun as the first 5,000km.

    Firmware 4.5

    Bluetooth still an issue 4.5 came down on Friday night. Noticed today that Bluetooth is still unstable - has been since 4.4. At present it's still stuck in "Bluetooth is Initializing" mode until I reboot the touchscreen. Will see if it's randomly rebooting and screeching at me this week...

    Can't get Virgin Radio on TuneIn radio in Montreal

    I wrote to TuneIn 2-3 months back because I was trying to pull in a few New Zealand stations without any luck. The frustrating part is there is no user feedback about issues playing - just the spinning circle of death. No response... I should probably just write ownership and see if they take...

    Annual Maintenance

    I'm coming up on nearly 13,000km after three months of driving my Model S - I suspect I'll hit the 20,000km mark within the next two months. Has anyone has the "annual" maintenance done yet? Curious what is included...
