Yep I have the same question. Which insurance company? I've been curious about the cost of replacing that windshield! It's one of the several things holding me back from configuring by Model X signature.

One of the Austin/San Antonio list members did some sleuthing on Sunday in San Marcos and picked up some good tidbits from the contractor there (sounds like he was enjoying being a micro-celebrity as people stopped by to pick his brain!). In addition to Waco and Columbus, he confirmed that...

It's fine for ME-- that's not the problem. When I'm showing the car to someone else and they have to close the front passenger door twice or three times to get it closed correctly, it stands out in a bad way. I'm sure they'll fix this issue in future builds (for all I know, they've already fixed...

My (detailed) review of the Tesla Model S I wrote-up my review of the Tesla Model S here: My review of the Tesla Model S s Blog I'd love to hear what other owners think of my review!
