Replied confirming ownership and set up an annual maintenance visit. In Dallas the mentioned separate facilities are not the case, which is fine with me -- you have your pick of Dallas or Plano locations. After hand off and booking they emailed me an e-sign doc for $600 annual service. So I...

Received mine in this latest batch. Best news since Elon blocked me on Twitter years ago. #1226 3.0

I have plenty of range so yes it came down to my fear. This late announcement of coverage for 1.5's surprises me - seems they would have announced this earlier if they could have. I feel something like weaker than expected demand may have made this more economically viable. Perhaps even the...

I have <10k miles and a very fresh battery but I just went ahead and pulled the trigger. I just don't want to miss out entirely. I am so disappointed that I can't opt for 240 mile range, less weight and better performance. It would seem like that option could even have been at cheaper cost for...

Is the summary that the only discount is on logistics shipping to us? My expectation was something more, given redistribution from a central point is going to cost a lot and introduce liability we don't want. I guess may be moot given level of interest here, but I'm in and can wait for...

From an engineering standpoint, sure you should logically wait. From an excitement standpoint, clearly you should move forward now. If you've regretted being an early adopter in the past, then wait. If you've felt excitement from pioneering and desire that feeling again, do it. You'll find...

This is a silly request. Imagine it was honored and the number was 7.2. What exactly are you going to compare it to? What if it was 9.2? 8.5? Asking people with a vested interest in defending their past monetary decisions makes it impossible to value the data on anything in say the top 1/3rd...

wow awesome! I had previously been frowning at the curious placement (east of 75) that the tesla site had - this is so much better. Agree with texla7544; plano perspective here. Any updates on when it will be open?

Glad to see a primary dislike of mine being discussed on production models. I have yet to test it purposefully, but it has always felt to me that braking is actually the lost function even with minor accidental contact to the accelerator. It's manageable but I dislike having to be conscious of...

@elsupreme @zextraterrestrial you guys are doing it right.

OP, I'm assuming your reference to early 2012 to simply mean earlier in the year? I'd peg insurance/retail value of your vehicle between the above 2.5 Sport example at $98k and this one offered at $109k Tesla : Roadster Sport Premium in Tesla | eBay Motors If I had a friend shopping for...

+1 interest from me on group buy - just found can caught up on thread. keep us posted.

all - I have located a white vehicle with some perks and will commit to it soon. I heard from a few of you, but no silver. I guess that sort of makes sense to me from a pioneering user group - why would you pick default color... If you do have a silver w/black interior it may be worth...

@brianman Soon in on Model X signature actually; this ones for the wife. :wink:

Thanks FLXX - I agree this is short term bump but have desire to chase in my case. I'll be taking $50k depreciation first 6 months at this level :scared: [shakes fist at motor trend!!]
