    Next Generation seats soon to be available for older Model S cars

    The release of this retrofit and pricing in U.S. is yet to be confirmed, but given the pricing on some of the other retrofits in the past eg Performance Plus suspension, parking sensors, etc, $5000 installed for an OEM Recaro pair of seats is not out of line, imo. I wouldn't be surprised if the...

    The quality of my P85D sucks

    I need to write this: I don't think many of us who have made enough money to buy a Tesla has gotten where we are by just "drinking Kool-Aid". That implies blindly following, which sounds like what you did when inspecting your car at delivery. So take your own advice: don't drink the Kool-Aid...

    The quality of my P85D sucks

    I like the new painted factory hood and fender idea. Paint should be as factory and at least the hood is probably designed to be taken on/off at the hinges. Whatever route you pursue, make it a point to accelerate it at every step of the way.

    The quality of my P85D sucks

    So you were disappointed in the value proposition, then went out and plopped another $120+k on a P85D? Be mad and disappointed, then raise hell up the the Tesla chain to make things work better for you. Simple.

    Tesla OEM Carbon Fiber Spoiler - No Longer Available

    Tesla OEM Carbon Fiber Spoiler I'm selling a used Tesla OEM matte carbon fiber trunk spoiler. This is the current (redesigned) version. There is no damage on it. The underside still has used double-sided tape so that will need to be removed (eg using blow dryer, fingers +/- adhesive...

    Turbine wheels now mandatory with P85D - intentional change or design studio glitch?

    Well summarized. I made the change to 19s before I made my first significant road trip. Couldn't imagine driving through the cities, getting some kind of tire/wheel damage on a pothole on the 21s, and having to wait a day or something for a replacement/repair. So, if I may, the...

    Uh, no, they sent me PMs to ask about my car and points brought up in this thread were also discussed. No biggie.

    FS: Model S 85kwh Black/Tan, 21" gray Performance wheels

    Thanks sub. I had a couple people agree with you in private as well. I think Shumdit is just a passionate buyer in the used market and thinking aloud. Used car buyers will always want to pay as little as possible and used car sellers, especially private sellers, will want to recoup as much...

    Does the center console, dash and app show correct car configuration?

    And can Tesla change these after delivery ?

    FS: Model S 85kwh Black/Tan, 21" gray Performance wheels

    Yes, you are describing what every used car buyer enjoys. So, there's a P85 out there in the $95k range and this. Choices for every budget.

    @shumdit, which P85 are you referring to? I've only ever seen P85s listed for like $95k and above on ebay, lol. I think someone did post about buying a loaner P85 for $87k somewhere, but did not specify the config/VIN. Anyway, I'm at peace with this price range and honestly don't want to ruin...

    I will credit $1000 for shipping anywhere in the contiguous US, for any serious buyer ready to go on this. To be honest this sale has got to end, one way or another, in the next day or 2 in order to have the funds ready in time for delivery of the P+. I could hold off on taking delivery, but...

    @liuping, I paid sales tax on full price of the car, if that's what you're asking.

    First full UK road test of Model S with hi-res page scans

    Thanks for scanning. Just a quick read-through the highlights and noticed a few things (not obvious to me, but may be to others): - full LED headlights an option - folding side mirrors an option - they think the 19" wheels and non-performance plus suspension may be the better all-around package...

    Solar energy questions and answers

    I would second this. Enphase has sold over 3 million units and is now on their 4th generation technology which has undergone massive amounts of testing (from my understanding) prelaunch . They are doing something right and have a warranty to back that up. Certainly time will tell and I'll...

    The longest service/repair ever...need advice

    I wonder if you bought it when Tesla was taking off 1%/month AND $1/mile for inventory cars. Now they are only doing $1/mile... Still a sick deal.

    Solar energy questions and answers

    @Theshadows, I am getting ready to have a 14 kw system installed next week. We are using the new Enphase M250 microinverters and LG 290w panels. Any issues that you know of with LG panels? I noticed that you use 260w panels, but I was given the impression by my install company that 260-285s...

    Hi, I have a deposit down on a Model S P85+ loaner at the Dublin, OH service center, VIN 16xxx. It is black/tan with obeche gloss and has about 1000 miles on it. Just curious if any members have driven it (lightly hopefully) and if you noticed any cosmetic problems or other issues with it. Also...
