Probably the first one in Europe: Instagram

Many thanks, Sean! This is really helpfull.

I've just added the question " What is the width and the length of the Model X?" as I couldn't find any official numbers on that. Overhere in tight European parking slots every inch (or better cm) counts :smile:

C'mon, everybody should know it by now - missing second-row folding seats :smile:

@20304 You've probably crossed the 200K km mark, right?

Cars for Norway go there directly and not via Tilburg as Norway is not subject to the EU import tax on cars.

If you are leasing via US Bank - just make use of your Happiness Guarantee http://www.teslamotors.com/blog/significantly-improved-leasing-tesla-us-bank This will also make the CPO buyer of your car happy.

Just have a look how the time spans between entries in this thread evolved over time. This gives a fairly well indication on how TMC improved the build quality since first deliveries: http://www.teslamotorsclub.com/showthread.php/10398-Model-S-Technical-Mechanical-Issues/page265

The new Vehicle Hold functionality makes it worth for me.

I'm making the same experience. I think, Germans are still in the self-denial phase regarding EV's and Tesla, in particular. Highly conservative (not to say backward) - mentality combined with domestic automotive tradition is a dangerous mix these days. Absence of speed limits on the motorway...

This is a deja vue of what we've seen after the Three Dog Day. Most of the people out there have no clue what all these features of MX mean in terms of customer experience. Just give them some time to think about it and to find out for themselves.

Model S system is supplied by Sinn http://s1nn.de/en/pages/company

You will be surprised, but this is how we wash our MS overhere all the time (with very few exemptions going for hand washing). There are no "touch-free" wash facilities in Germany due to regulation, I think.

What an irony - because of the copyright on the music I can't watch the video in Germany :mad:

Is this mentioned somewhere in the filing doc?

I'm fully with you joefee. I'll just shut up about Tesla until the "grace period" is over, i.e. October 31st.

There should be two positive effects on the earnings coming from the start of P85D/85D deliveries (with presumably higher margins) outside of the US and after price increases in Euro at the end of last years with cars delivered in 2Q.

Re 1. Exactly what I'm tryin to do - launching a ****storm on twitter and FB Re 2. Gonna be difficult, if Siemens stops supplying their electric motors to Pipistrel :mad:

Pipistrel got into trouble with some big guys. Any ideas how we can support this electric propulsion pioneer? http://www.pipistrel.si/news/electric-crosschannel-flight-official-statement

You can check the German Tesla forum for updates: http://tff-forum.de/viewtopic.php?f=68&t=6103&start=240

There are quite a few owners from Munich on this forum: tff-forum.de. So you can pick an owner with your preferred configuration. I personally would go for a P85D :wink:

I had the same experience once at the supercharger :scared:. It worked when I was simultaniously opening the charge port from the touchscreen and another person gently pressed on the charge port. If you don't have anybody to assist you can try the same by using your key fob (push and hold on the...

While visiting the (not officially opened) Serivce Center in Bordeaux last week, I was told that Bordeaux will go online in the next couple of days/very soon

Some/more in Spain would be good, though Barcelona is in reach from Narbonne SuC in France. :smile:

Congrats! Btw, is the factory still in the end of quarter rush?

To get the range down to 125 miles you will have to go to German autobahn and drive at 200km/h for about an hour, I guess. With my S85 constantly going at 160-180km/h still gives me significantly more than 125 miles under normal traffic conditions. To constrantly keep 180km/h in Germany you will...

It looks like there is a fair chance for CC to coincide with Spacex launch backup window on Wednesday. Has it ever happened in the past?

Fully agree with you. For my part, I think it's just fascinating to know that at some point this year there will be 100,000 Teslas driving around :smile:

Comparing this two views it looks like there is a new bulding added there, unless I'm wrong? Is this the one posted by jkliu47?

I don't think TM would have another "launch party" without actually delivering at least a couple of cars at this occasion. And this is probably not going to happen before summer. Otherwise what's the point of going over the falcon wing doors again and again :wink:

Wow, that's impressive! What are you doing for living btw? :smile:

What is "more"?

We seem to be very close from starting to see VIN's of 70k and above. Exciting!

Just wondering, what would potential implications from swapping for NextGen seats in some P85Ds be for 4Q earnings? Can TSLA re-use these rare seats somehow? On the other hand, the margin on P85Ds is probably also fairly "insane" :smile:

After nearly 10,000mi I also still am :wink: Thanks for sharing and enjoy your car!

Thanks. On a more positive note - it's 17% increase from August :wink:

Source please?

Yep. The only difference was, electrons were for free, calories we had to pay for :wink:

It's been slightly longer than two weeks, since I took delivery on June 21st (was busy driving since then :biggrin:). The car is flawless and absolutely amazing in so many different ways. After I let a friend of mine driving last Sunday he said - "Wow, now I understand, what you're talking about...

Congratulations! Would be great to know, where you charged on the way to Budapest? Did you make it in one go from the Vienna supercharger?

Where is your delivery? I've read in the German forum about someone with recent delivery there who was reimbursed the price difference of the cable.

One of the main German TV channels reporting about Google today

Exciting! The first VIN over 45k I've seen.

Beautiful! Makes me regret for a second, I've ordered a silver one. But just for a second :wink:

Also wondering, if Alcoa's 1Q results and 2Q outlook on automotive would have an impact...

Trying to link Alcoa's 1Q presentation stating "Record automotive sheet revenue" and 2Q Outlook where "Auto demand expected to stay strong". I guess, currently TSLA accounts for a big chunk of Alcoa's automotive production. Any thoughts?

Spotted this blue S60 near Munich, Germany in early March.

There is no warranty limitation related to distance driven for 85 kWh battery. For 60 it's 200K km for Europe within 8 years.

As an aside - TSLA has just got ahead of Panasonic in terms of market cap...

Purely amazing! What a group of handsome individuals and vehicles!
