I love the 2023 Model S I purchased in November, but definitely prefer the Nextgen seats from my 2015 85D. Does anyone know if those can be swapped between my two cars? I fully understand that I would lose the ventilated cooling feature.

Turning lemons into Lemonade. Awesome!

it just seems that there is a very limited window to turn all of this very negative publicity into a win-win for everyone by making the goodwill gesture of apologizing for the mistake and hand delivering a check for the full $16k. And then placing another pre-paid order for an event at a later...

I'm sure we've all read the story below by now. Opportunities like this don't come around every day. For only $16k and a heartfelt apology for the misunderstanding the narrative here could be turned on it's head...

That's funny, but at the same time it's not. My FSD trial expired today. There were no warnings that it was about to expire or that had expired. The procedure for engaging AP is exactly the same as engaging FSD as you're driving down the road, so I didn't even know FSD was not operating until...

It may be stupid not to buy a Tesla because of Elon, but that is the way the world works and he seems oblivious to it. It's incredibly naive for him to think that statements he makes will not have a negative effect on sales “because people will still buy the best car.” Free speech doesn't mean...

It disappears when sold.

That is not correct. “Rejected” does not mean “canceled” or “reversed.” Unless you then cancel the order, or reverse the purchase and receive a refund. If you reject due to defects with which you cannot live, your FUSC will still transfer to the car which you do accept. I believe that you are...

How much did they quote you for your 2016 and with how many miles?

As the recall is for “over 2 million cars,” I believe you’re correct.

If you pick up the black inventory car instead (which also may likely be someone else's reject car), there will be many times over your years of ownership that you will realize you made a mistake by giving up the color you really wanted because you feared that you might waste a one hour drive to...

Make sure you check carefully for paint overspray on your windshield. If you don't see any when you pick up the car, pay close attention when you're driving directly into the sun in your first 100 miles/7 days.

My 2015 85D has Next Gens. My 2014 had the original seats to which Elon referred. Night and day difference. I love the “next gen” seats on my 2015.

I picked mine up two weeks ago. The docs also said 15 miles. It had 6.

The real question is, how much could you get for it? How many miles does it have? My point is that if you could get no more fore it than I was quoted for mine, you might as well keep it.
