    Next Generation seats soon to be available for older Model S cars

    Ebay: P85+ for $70k: Tesla Model s Performance Plus | eBay And a P85 (probably not plus) for $60k: Tesla Model s Performance P85 | eBay When he quoted $60k, he didn't specify what year; and we're not in the Bay Area.

    Yeah, was talking to a friend recently who was considering one. Said he was seeing used P85+ in the $60ks =0

    Next Generation seats soon to be available for older Model S cars

    I know you guys aren't happy about the price (not that I'm planning to do the retrofit anytime soon, either); but it would cost me $40k+ to buy a new car. Yes, my year-old P85+ with <10k miles is only worth about $80k now. Car prices drop rapidly; and it makes a seat upgrade far, far cheaper...

    Next Generation seats soon to be available for older Model S cars

    Yes, for the next generation seats; was referring to the fact that I don't have the piping, so I don't know if they are available with that. I'm not finding a Recaro with heating for less than $2000 per seat; so $4000-$4500 for just the seats, plus shipping, installation, etc. -- the Tesla...

    Next Generation seats soon to be available for older Model S cars

    Just called my service center (Bellevue, WA) and they confirmed the retrofit is available. For the gray front seats (not performance), they quoted $5860 total; another $2000 or so for the back seats (didn't get an exact quote, since I don't care about them).

    P85D - NEW Seats Announced - Finally!!

    Sadly, center LATCH is long gone; my car built in April doesn't have them, either.

    Firmware 6.0 (beta version discussion)

    Also no proof that this an iPhone-only functionality. The wording in the release notes make it sound like this is a new feature for the phone app; and at the moment, that has only been released for the iPhone, but the Android version is coming shortly, and will (presumably) have the same...

    Why allow roll back on a hill ?

    Incorrect; I've never had Creep on in my car, but I still definitely get the hill assist. They are two separate functions.

    Is the P85 too fast/powerful?

    I have the P85+, but what really surprised me is how well-balanced the accelerator is. The first half or so of the pedal depression takes it very easy; it is easy to carefully back into a parking spot or drive through a parking garage and minutely control your speed. It's only when you really...

    UMC Tug-of-War; Could it be SW Release 5.9 (1.51.109)?

    I have a new car that came with 5.9. I noticed some odd behavior similar to this where I pressed the button and it flickered from green to white to blue and back to green. I found if I hold down the button, the ring turns white and I can pull it out every time. I just assumed this was how it was...

    Model S Order & Delivery Tracker - Q1 2014

    My car was delivered yesterday, the 15th. I had it for a whole two hours before dropping it off at the detail shop for a week (full clear film wrap, paint protection, and tint). Looking forward to getting it in my garage!

    Model S Order & Delivery Tracker - Q1 2014

    Seattle SC seems to be really prompt about scheduling an initial delivery date. I got an email maybe two days after I confirmed my order. Maybe they have a lot of deliveries to deal with, so they schedule them as soon as they have a timeline for manufacturing?

    Model S Order & Delivery Tracker - Q1 2014

    Production started exactly one month from order confirmation; will be less than a month and a half from order to delivery.

    Model S Order & Delivery Tracker - Q1 2014

    My car is fully completed! I actually couldn't check Fri or Sat, so it may have finished anytime between early Friday morning and this evening; but it is done now. Crossing my fingers that I'll get the car sometime this week -- it shouldn't take that long to bring it up to Seattle, right? ;)

    Model S Order & Delivery Tracker - Q1 2014

    Nope, this one you have to check the website for. For me it happened sometime between 8:30am PDT and 3:30pm PDT (the two times I checked).
