My wife phoned yesterday to say that the superchargers are up in Lee, Massachusetts. Fortunately for us, we live just a couple miles away, and she drives by on her way to and from work. Here's a photo. I charged there last night, so I can confirm that it is operational, although it did not...

Thanks for that link, Jaguar 36. I hadn't seen it before. I appreciate all the comments. I agree that the Model S is not meant to be a track car. It shines in daily driving. Gizmotoy, how fantastic that you took it out on the track at Laguna!

I just received my October 2015 Car and Driver, in which they test about 18 cars on Virginia International Raceway, and it seems strange to me the Model S has never been tested for their comparative time test. They have a nice curve graph of cost and track time, showing that for the most part...

Do you know of any reliable chargers for a Tesla Model S in Chevy Chase Maryland? My family will be there for Thanksgiving. It didn't seem like there are any decent public chargers near there according to Plugshare. Thanks! Jesse

NJ- I made my trip and did plug in at the Mohegan Sun Hotel valet. There are two valet services, and you have to take signs to the hotel. They did have three plugs, but they were really slow, I think about 12 miles of range per hour. I just left it plugged in there (I was the only one)...

Mach3- The car looks great! Nice work. Glossy, glassy, lux!

David, I decided on blue with tan interior. I think it is a very elegant look. I realize that tastes vary widely -- for example, I cannot imagine wanting a white car, but they are very popular and well loved. Go with your gut. In the end, I don't think it makes much difference. Right now...

Msolome, Why would turning the Dolby off improve the sound? I'll try that tomorrow to test if I can hear a difference.

Evme, I suggest you call GTechniq headquarters -- they may know of someone in Chicago who is not officially accredited. I also like Kevin's suggestion that you try it yourself. Perhaps get it detailed before for "paint correction."

Ryan, I happen to be someone who both reads IGN and drives a Tesla. I think you really "got it" in your review. It is the coolest piece of tech, or the coolest gadget anyone can buy. My wife, when she tells friends about our decision to buy it, notes that I was the 13 year old kid in 1983 to...

Christian3, like wrestled with the choice between red and blue. To me, the red is bright, sometimes even a bit orange, and is not the candy apple red typical of sports cars. I looked at the red and blue in bright light at the Natick Mall during my test drive (which I did after placing my...

So I have been in my baby Tesla "The Falcon" for a little over a week now. I took it over to Kevin at Gotham Autoworks in Danbury, Connecticut, at the recommendation of two other forum members, Aaron and RetinaDoc. I had them perform a "new car service," and I am very pleased with how much...

With Aaron and RetinaDoc's endorsement of Gotham Autoworks in Danbury, Connecticut, I brought my one-week old Tesla there for their "new car service," which included the G Techniq and Exo treatment. I am very impressed. Even my wife can tell the difference. The surface is glossier, more...

I had heard last week that my car #141xx was due to enter the line the week of July 8, but I got a call yesterday that it has been completed and placed on a truck east! I loaded up my Tesla app, and it says "remote access is off" instead of no vehicle associated with this account. I can pick...

Hey, SMD, I notice you drive a blue/tan/lacewood 85. That's the exact design I have ordered and should arrive in Massachusetts by the end of July. How do you like it? I notice lacewood seems uncommon, but sure looked nice to me!

luder94- I am in the same boat as you, finalizing on 6/10 and getting a delivery email to expect the car in Massachusetts for first week of July. I phoned tesla in California and was told my car was on the line, and would reach "end of line" June 24. However, I then heard from my delivery...

I will be taking a road trip with my buddies to a concert there in late August, and haven't been able to find any hotel that will charge my Model S (which should arrive sometimes in July). The Mohegan Sun resort itself offers charging, but the room rates there are about three times other hotel...

Jenni - What a beauty! Blue and tan is what I ordered, too.

Right Said Fred - My heart goes out to you! My disappointment is relative to my expectations, since US orders seem to be usually going right into production within a week or two. I hope you receive yours soon!

I just received a new piece of data for my Model S: Order placed 5/28 Order confirmed, "in production" and VIN# 141xx 6/11 Will enter production line 7/8 I am disappointed that mine is entering the line four weeks from now. I see that lots of close VINs already have delivery dates. Model S...

This is my first post here, though I have been following the forums for several weeks. I ordered 5/28, I received the confirmation that the order was sent to factory today at 3 am with VIN#1413x. Because of Kabbr's post today, that means they released at least 110+ VINs in one batch today...
