Congrats on you new to you Model S! The Leaf also turned on the e-car light bulb for me- had one as a rental for 2 weeks and I did not ever want to go back to gas! Drive the 21's for a while to see how they work for you. Yes, tire replacement cost, vulnerability to big potholes is more but...

Picked up a gently used set of std 21's (non staggered) to try out. Definitely like the more stealthy look than my original silver 19 in wheels but still getting used to the more firm ride.

Congrats on your CPO purchase- nice snag! Sure it depends on specs, mileage, condition etc- as long one feels that a good deal was had , beat some depreciation and happy w/ the item at point of sale is all that matters since cars and tech consumables are all about "hindsight 20/20". Glad...

The more attractive/lower price points, immediate availability, warranty should work well for existing and new buyers to Tesla. Still happy to see my purchase price of a 7K mi inventory car, non auto pilot w/ tax and rebate benefits from last NOV is still a little more competitively priced...

Probably the same one but just moved in the shade. It had dealer plates on it so its likely a demo driver.

Congrats on your order- nicely spec'd! Saw the new silver last night and its nice but you and Eileen made an excellent choice going with the pearl white!

Agree- no relation to silver or titainium. Its beige, bronze, champagne in the sun. In the shade it darkens to a grey/green or taupe. I guess the mkt folks think that "titanium" is a more catchy name?

A few pics of the new silver taken while charging in Fremont this evening:

I use Americas Tire Walnut creek to service my Model S tires- good service. Have also patronized the Americas Tire in Dublin for non Tesla cars and have never had a bad experience with them.

Congrats on you new order Nanimac- your 70D is gonna be winnahs! Was charging in Fremont this evening and happened to see something you might enjoy :)

Nice Tesla formation pics!

I have a black exterior w/ black leather seats, carpet but with the std beige headliner. Not my first choice of color combo but it was a inventory, low mi. service loaner at a nice discounted price point that was difficult to pass on :) Actually have grown to really like the black exterior...

My pleasure! We typically end up supercharging on this side of the bay when holoholo on the weekends and just had to share this neat-o sight of all the cars being delivered this past Saturday- you'd think they were having a clearance sale ;) There must have been at least 50-60 cars staged at...

Plenty deliveries this past weekend/end of quarter in Fremont!

Another "thanks for sharing" and glad this worked out for you. Hope it will be years (or never) that I have to utilize this service source but good to know that he is in the bay area! It actually looks pretty clean, de-badged without the T logo :)
