Lots of rubber slag and it seems to have taken off some of the autofilm I had installed -- a definite endorsement for the film...

    Insurance On Model S?

    is there a difference in quotes for s60 vs s85? someone said that the 85 was put considered performance category but the 60 was not. is this consistent with other people's experience? it's not like s60 is a slow car. Since i need a commuter on Cali freeways, paying premium for s85 is not...
