    911 after a P90D

    long story but in the market for a recent CPO 911 Convertible, likely S or 4S. Proud owner of a P90D for 2 years which i could not love more in terms of driving dynamics. Been test driving a number of 2014-2015 911 hard and soft tops. Anyway, impressions. - Lack of low end torque makes the...

    ludicrous P90D after delivery?

    if software only my conclusion (and rationalization as a P90D non L owner obviously) remains: 1. won't notice the L 30-60 after a while (totally subjective). 2. will hurt my range. live in northeast so that matter 6 months of the year. 3. i already have all the hardware in the car so have...

    ludicrous P90D after delivery?

    Since Tesla is now offering the 90D to 90DL upgrade, are we still sure that the upgrade is software only? the wording on the store upgrade product page is vague enough and does not mention hardware specifically?

    TECHNICAL: Why not a 2+ Gear Box?

    one of features we like about our MS (and i assume MX) is the one speed gearbox and the lack of excessively complex 5/6/7 transmission gear box (ala PDK) we think of the power being applied linearly and it works wonders. the simplicity of a single gear also allows for no R&D wasted on recreating...

    A bit freaked out - P90D vs 90D

    been thinking of these two cars recently. btw, ordered the p90d and did not look back. maybe this graph helps. 911 is very stable, late in its lifecycle. a two year old car is indistinguishable from a new car. a tesla is early in its cycle and changing all the time as the maker learns. a...
