Oh I agree on interior. The Model S has an interior on par with a 50 or 60k car at best. Thats why I'm glad they've been cutting the prices down to reasonable valuations. 120k+ for that interior was highway robbery. And don't get me started on 15k price to but you and your family's life in...

Received the shocking news and subsequent shocking bill from the SC that my 2013 S85 HV Battery needs to be replaced at just over 100k miles. I kept the car past warranty with confidence thinking that these batteries last 300-500k miles. Even Elon Musk was quoted saying the batteries should last...
