Looks great. How are the tires in the snow? I thought TPMS was mandatory with run-flats. They won't "look flat" just by visual inspection.

To close the loop - we ended up using solar city. Despite being quite annoyed by the lack of callbacks initially, they clearly were the most clear on what needed to be done (including the whole temporary NEMA 6-50 / HPWC swap). Once we did make contact (the week before the car was to be...

Here's my take -- if you are trying to decide between the two by making pro / con lists, I'd get the Audi (not that I would ever get an S-anything, but that's me). I certainly enjoy driving my wife's model S on weekends for family errands, kids activities, etc., but it doesn't handle like my BMW.

Sorry, that's hideous. As for the chrome -- to each their own -- but I can tell you most luxury sedans have a similar look.

We've had a lot of problems finding an electrician to wire for the HPWC. Solar city set up 2 phone "consultations" but never called us. We've talked with 3 electrical contractors, but after sending them the information from Tesla, they have yet to get back to us. Does anyone have suggestions...

That's what I thought ... until about 6 weeks after getting a car with keyless entry/start and I had to drive my wife's car. Yeah, that task of taking the key out, pushing the button, etc. really, really seemed (and still seems) like a burden. I too, will always opt for this feature in the...

Ouch. I'm not sure what this means? Are you saying the roadster interior turned out nicer than originally billed or that people don't care at this's point because of of the other pluses of the car?

Some great answers -- thanks! The A7 is definitely on the list and may be a better comparison than the A6/S6. I considered the Volvo, but my wife isn't so interested. I think that's more similar to the Acuras (which in general we love, but I can't quite put Acura in the same category as a...

Can you elaborate on this? ps. What's a tape player? :wink:

I like that -- but you risk secret service commandeering it, then taking it for a ride in the red-light district (not that DC really has one)...

Our deposit is down and my wife is incredibly excited, but we're planning on doing some comparison shopping -- the problem is, what to compare to? Ignoring the EV component and the performance issue (i.e. the 0-60 time) where does the S fit in? Those that have seen/sat in the betas --...
