    Does the Model X exist?

    I've seen three in the wild in Chicago plus several more at the showroom on Grand. This is my third Tesla --- ordered my S a couple years before release, then traded it for a P85D, and ordered an X to keep the P85D company. With the X I started with a late-April, early May promise on my...

    Ludicrous Upgrade Scheduling?

    In Chicago, got the call last Wednesday, went in on Friday afternoon, all done and ready for pickup midday Monday. Completely smooth really happy with the process and the upgrade although I haven't been pushing it too hard with snow-tires on the cars, as well as the dustings of snow we have...

    Chicago owners, your opinions please

    I picked up a second set of wheels as well. If it makes the total expense any less painful I look at from the perspective that my summer tires will last almost 1/3 longer because I am only driving 2/3 of the year on the summer tires. Of course the money has to be paid up front but the...

    Signature delivery now mid/late January

    Take this for the little that it is worth probably not much as I don't have pictures and it was just a casual comment. Last week I took my S in for service at the Chicago service center. I asked if they had any idea when they would see an X. They said that they had delivered their first...

    Chicago owners, your opinions please

    Having had a P85+ for one winter and a P85D last winter, same set of snows for both cars is as follows: For most of our snow driving the RWD with snows is fine, the D with snows is better, but not enough for our quantity of snow to make it a necessity. If given the choice of a RWD with snows...

    Next-gen REAR seats no longer available for new orders, please post feedback on yours

    I upgraded to a D from an early p85+. I did luck out and get delivery of Next Gen seats front and back. I sit in the front always --- usually in the drivers seat. I like the front seats enough that I would have paid the upgrade cost for just the front seats, I believe they are that big an...

    Tracking P85D delivery thread

    My Chicago car is still in the queue, but I am told it will still be here before year end. It is not a huge deal to me as it has slipped beyond my leaving town dates, so I will be picking it up after the 1st anyway, but they have assured me it would be ready for pickup before the 1st, if I want...

    Tracking P85D delivery thread

    I'm not sure what the :"rough analysis of the gaps between VINs" means. It seems to me as VIN # 63299 and still in the queue that VIN # is not real meaningful as far as the P85D's are concerned. I would agree with your overall conclusion about very few cars being represented in the spread...

    New production (late 2014) new TPMS sensors

    I'm in the same boat. Although I am happy with the new functionality. I specifically asked about using my "old" snow tires and wheels from my P+ on the car both before I bought the car and after purchase during the phone call asking about winter tires. Not a big deal if the sensors are...

    Got my P85+ this past Friday night at 11:30pm

    I have a similar configuration, and I found the paint armor line midway up the hood very noticeable, and not just in direct sunlight. I ending up doing a full wrap on the hood. I will say that the installer was impressed with the job the factory did on the other areas they wrapped (mirrors...

    Tracking Multi-red production and sequencing

    Dlivery Interest in this thread seems to have diminished as deliveries have been made. I am happy to finally be as negligent in my updates as everyone else. I picked up my red P85+ on the fifth. P8234. I had an original delivery date of April 22, but when unloading the car Tesla hit a pole...

    Tracking Multi-red production and sequencing

    To everyone who is complaining about timing .... just remember it could be worse. I had an appointment to pick up my car tomorrow 4/25 at the Chicago service center. I received a call from the delivery territory manager yesterday. Apparently while Tesla was backing the car off the delivery...

    Tracking Multi-red production and sequencing

    I was curious about the performance plus package, and sent an email and made a quick call to get some more information. I was told it was incompatible with the 19" wheels I am planning on using during the Chicago winters. I was also told it is too late to change anyway as my car is "set to...
