You're right. Looks like Porsche website has updated for the new 2025 models for order. Just saw the EE video which has those major improvements you've mentioned over the 1st gen Taycans.

Same. Went to the Porsche dealer and sat inside the Taycan and it's crazy how nice it's inside compared to the Tesla. I am being patient to see what rolls out from now until end of year. Hoping some kind of upgrade/refresh with the S or at least wait for the 2025 Taycan that is said to have...

:rolleyes: Yea sure. Will reply to your post when I get this infotainment at a discount or upgraded for free. You know how it is to be an early adopter with Tesla.

Smart business move on Tesla. How many of us 2.0/2.5 with paid FSD are waiting for our free HW3 upgrade? Tesla SC/Mobile will be swamped with this task and not get paid to do it. So they offer this infotainment upgrade knowing a majority are going to fork over $2500 to get this upgrade and they...

Bought my S back in June 17 with just EAP and no FSD. FSD shows as a $3k option now in My Tesla, but Elon tweeted it will be adjusted to $2k for those who purchased EAP. Keep seeing posts that you will get HW3 upgrade only if you purchased FSD before, so if I buy FSD now, I won't get HW3.0? I...

Hello, I got 4 referrals last year and on October 18, 2017, received an email from Tesla that my 4th referral has taken delivery of their vehicle and I am being thanked with a founder series powerwall (see attached email). I immediately filled out the survey as I've been anxious to get this...

Hello, Visited a local tire shop to have a nail patched and the manager came up asking if I would like a set of Michelin PSS in 255/35/21 for $400. He said they had accidentally ordered it and it's the 2nd Tesla they have seen in their store so they want to get rid of them. The tires are $302...

Posted in other thread but will post here also. April 24, 2017 build S75D 193xxx. Dropped off yesterday. Received this text today.

Holy crap I have my car at service center for a noise issue and I just got this text!! "Good news! The 75D performance upgrade has been approved for your Model S! We can get that done today and should have it ready to pick up before we close at 3pm." I have an April 2017 build 75D. Picked up...

Didn't even think of it like that. You are right. I will be sure to mention this when I drop it off Friday. Thanks for this feedback. I have taken 2 techs on the ride, one even driving my vehicle and reproducing the issue. Figured that would be good enough but stuck in the same issue.

Hi all, I have taken my 2017 Tesla 75D twice to service for the same issue and they diagnose and resolve the issue the same way each time which is not what is happening with my car. When I slow down to make a right turn without applying any brakes, the left front makes a squealing type noise...

Same situation. SAS was removed for a few months in early 2017 and I believe those that purchased a 75 model Tesla at that time, including myself, got screwed. I wanted SAS but it wasn't an option and I purchased the PUP solely for the liftgate and LED/headlight reasons. Picked up the car...

If they read enough replies of people willing to pay, they probably will charge... let's hope if they do offer the software upgrade to the D models, it will be free...

I think from what we all have gathered so far is the 75 may require both hardware/software while the 75D is just software. Still no clear answer but that is what it has been seeming like. The manager at my SC even said he could uncork mine (75D) within minutes but can't without approval from...

Been emailing Tesla about the uncorking but get the same answer that car can't be uncorked. Have an April 2017 S75D build. Visited the SC and brought it up, basically the manager said he would uncork my car if he could, but he can't without permission from corporate. He even went on to saying it...

Oh and don't go alone. Always take a second or even third pair of eyes to look over it.

What month was it produced? Lots of improvements came out in July including the new motor that is 1 second faster, rear seats, and air suspension included for free. Not sure if you looked into that and tried building a new one and comparing it to what your getting inventory.

Doubt it. Instant void in warranty = very slim market.

Hmm I have a 193xxx and was told by the SC I wasn't tagged for uncorcking. Hope they are wrong and will check with them again later unless we have some luck and this OTA update gives us the improvements.

Well said. Couldn't agree with this more. Most on this community encourage owners to just accept it and bow to the mighty Tesla even when they have some grounds to argue about. I hope more owners will voice their concerns and any unhappy experience they have went through directly with Tesla...

I appreciate the unnecessary lesson on what lies and promises are. :rolleyes: You can twist it however you want to defend Tesla. Point is I asked a question, was given a a solid answer to my question, and it turned out the answer was not true. So to all of your arguments this is perfectly OK...

Ah ok so because it wasn't intentional then it makes it all OK and the employee shouldn't be held accountable anymore nor Tesla. It's always my fault if I get told lies or broken promises when dealing with Tesla. Sounds good.

KPH

So it's ok for them to lie to their customers when they ask a question that would determine their buying decision. Gotcha. Yea it amazes me too that I can't even trust the brand I am dealing with to answer all my questions that I have to go and do my own "research".

I didn't ask about future changes. I asked IF there would be any changes between the inventory model they wanted me to take VS the one I had being built. I was told no. Wether the DS knew there was a change or not doesn't matter. If he knew then he obviously deceived me. If he didn't then he...

I've been screwed by a Tesla employee as well and I can relate to OP. This is my first Tesla purchase so I asked tons of questions to a Tesla employee as i'm new to the Tesla world. Coming from over 10 years of purchasing and dealing with BMW, the experience with Tesla was amazing and I loved it...

Why would I get pissed? I wanted air suspension and it wasn't an option at the time. Don't understand just like the OP of why air suspension was removed as an option on the 75 for 3 months and then brought back? It's not like it's some new feature. I guess for less backlash they figured to...

Yup pretty pissed as well. I wanted air suspension and it wasn't an option and now it comes for free....

I appreciate the sympathy. I do feel the staff could use better education about the Tesla brand and to not answer a question they are unsure about. If he did not know about any changes, he should have simply said he's not sure or told me what the upper management team told me when I brought up...

I get it. But the fact of the matter is I asked a question and was not given a truthful response and based my decision on that response. Only wish I asked it on an email and have told Tesla I want all communications done via email or text from now on as I don't trust them anymore on their...

I'm that guy and it really sucks and has been stressing me out daily. This is the first time i've ever purchased a brand new car and my first Tesla vehicle (S 75D). I confirmed my build on June 3rd and had a delivery time of July-August. Few days later my DS told me they have an inventory model...

I am more interested in the new motor and battery improvements. The extra 1 seconds is nice as well.

I got a $100 discount by taking an inventory model over my build. Car had I think 17 miles on it when I picked it up. I even asked the DS if this was a showroom floor model etc but he said no. I don't understand why you are protecting the DS in this situation. Sure the DS may or may not have...

This exact same thing happened to me. I built one from scratch after test driving it at my local Tesla location. After confirming the build a week later I get a call from my DS saying they have an exact inventory model as the one I built and said I should take it as my build is going to take an...

Tired of seeing all these "guess how much" posts on forums and facebook pages. Just put the amount so we can all see it and move on.

Had no idea. Good info, thanks!

Did you try Alliant? My credit union that I have been with for over a year with my current BMW loan denied me because I have never had history with an automotive vehicle with that price tag basically. I applied with Alliant and they approved me for 105% of purchase easily. I would recommend...

Thanks for the feedback everyone. Decided to just go ahead with a new one. Ended up 12k over what I wanted to spend including the EV incentive, but I think it would be well worth it to have a brand new 2017 over used and also have the new enhanced auto pilot hardware available and was able to...

Would it still be protected under the 4yr/50k miles and battery at 8yrs unlimited mileage?

Purchasing from a private dealer voids the factory warranty?

Hello all, Possible future Tesla owner here. Just wanted to get your advice on a Tesla I put a down payment on and finalizing on the paperwork on. Purchasing from a private dealer. 2015 Model S 70D. Has 20k miles, Pano, Air Suspension, Autopilot. Price is $61k. This is the cheapest 2015 I...
