Well, good luck with you trade in, if you decide to do it, and I hope it works for you! For me personally, once I drove Tesla I was sold and realized I can never ever go back to the ICE car. Everything else, such as details of buying process, looking for suitable large parking space (was a bit...

Small correction, in Akasaka @ ANA InterContinental Hotel there are 4 charging stalls. Made a few stops there since the open day and there is no one charging. Probably because you have to pay for the parking. I would also add, Tokyo Bay @ Shinonome AutoBacs is not necessarily busy all the time...

I definitely recommend getting Autopilot, while it's not nearly as advances as what they are doing in US if you drive substantial amount of km on the highway it's absolutely great. I particularly like it when I get stuck on Tomei in the weekend traffic coming back home.

Good to know, thank you for the report Hiroshi!

Hi Hiroshiy, Thank you for your post. I have an appointment next week with the installer (guys over at Tesla Yokohama SC made an intro) so will let everyone know once my dash & rear cams get installed. Blackvue seems to be what most Tesla owners get, which seems to be pretty good. Wondering...

Thanks Jay - I have seen and read that guide, which is where I picked up on the A119 cams. Thank you arcus - I have not seen your thread before, so just finished reading it not long ago - way to go & nicely done! I have contacted SC in Yokohama and they made a recommendation. It's an...

Hi Guys, Anybody tried to install cams in your S or X in Tokyo or other cities for that matter too? I have been reading up on the subject in the overseas, primarily US forums. While it's possible I decide to DIY it would seem logical to check on the other options too. I am thinking about A119...

Indeed, good proximity to a few interesting places including Indian food restaurant and an electronics store!

Shows up on the navigation map no problem. However, doesn't say how many stalls are available/in use.

I got 'Silk' :-) this past Sunday! I mean I got fw upgrade to ver. 2017.28c5.......... but driven very little on it so far. First impressions: it's less jerky and overall more smooth. But, it seems to quit a lot more often then the previous version... Phantom braking is still there but seems a...

Hi Dozodomo, With a bit more research, I believe the e-mail you have received is about upcoming in Japan AP2 update. This version has already been rolling out in US for a couple of weeks. This is the update Elon was referring to as "New control algorithm feels as smooth as silk."

Hmmm, interesting. My car is AP2 but the only e-mail I've got today is about the referral program.

I charge only at Chademo or Superchargers and so far had no problems getting around Tokyo or neighboring areas. Trip to Nagoya with chademo chargers pretty much at every highway rest area was no problem at all. Jay is right, chargers in Japan are so commonplace it's light years ahead of...

Hi Hiroshiy, No, unfortunately key fob does not seem to activate summon. At first I thought it was the distance, so I moved pretty close. Then I thought I was not holding it down long enough - nope. Then I looked for any settings in the configuration - no. Lastly, I tried my second key fob...

Downloaded new AP2 version and after the calibration have been trying it on. Not enough km driven to decide if any of the problems described earlier got better. However, one feature that is worth mentioning at this point is the summon. My driver's side parking neighbor is an SUV. It's rarely...
