Its ok, just needs more work. Id start by writing a email documenting your interactions with Tesla. Ask what can be done here for recertification. Then they will fob you off, then ask again with a dead line. Then they will fob you off again, then take those to the ACCC and/or your state...

Not sure what it more heresy, EV stang or RB motor swap into a stang. Personally Id get a classic EV and swap in the Tesla powertrain into it. Its the equivalent of a LS swap into a old school V8. Detroit Electric - Wikipedia Henney Kilowatt - Wikipedia

Should of watched Rich rebuilds channel first perhaps. Don't know why you'd sink all your money into a project car. Salvage cars are always a gamble. Not sure about NZ but ACCC or Fair trading should help, state Ombudsman as well. I use the last office against the RMS here in Sydney. Got a pic...

Can have the slots milled into your current rotor but I wouldn't recommend it. If you feel the need for rice, saw plastic brembo brake covers on ebay. In terms of braking Ferodo do DS2500s for the M3. I have these they are great brake pad but they squeal in traffic. Found slotted rotors great...

Makes no sense. These battery modules are made quickly, binning damaged ones isnt a issue why would Tesla put in defective cells? Just grab a new one from the parts bin, why would anyone track defective cell VINs? Seems like more FUD. This guy isn't trustworthy and has money on the line here...

In other words 2020 for none reservation holders

Nice that's what i like to do as well. I don't think most do that in this country btw Takes money to do that in WA, work in mining I guess. WA has a renewable energy plan?

I vote but masses keep coal loving idiots running our country. Honestly if you are so concerned with air pollution why do you have a EV? You, know how our power is generated right? Bus or train would be getter answer there, sorry no weetabix for you. And Nope, my car is reliable 400HP and it...

Love that Goldman Sachs, which has been described as "Vampire Squid on the face of humanity" is largely ignored for the racist rhetoric. Either way I'm for Tesla going private, it will be a better company without the daily stock market circus and mass media FUD. Also will help faster adoption...

BS when it goes to Federal gov, they will gives subsidies to cars running on brown coal.

Id rather wait and drive my old nugget Subaru than spend money on a Hyundies. $75k for a Samsung/LG EV, serious? That aside, I'll probably wait longer for the Model Y, I'd prefer a CUV over a sedan.

Seems you guys excel in white collar crim types, kudos there. For us mainly old $#ITboxes that joyriders like, Nissans, Holdens, honduh, those cars that can be started with a popsicle stick. Kinda what I was alluding to. There was a huge car birth market here but the real money was parting...

Cant steal a plane with a flat bed truck. Does the US have crappy car thieves or something? Load on flat bed, disconnect LTE by either disconnecting 12V and/ or cutting main power line in the frunk. Then chop up and part out $$$$

Future is solid state, not liquid suspensions. Issue of contamination, degradation, all of which is already a none issue with batteries. Another pie in the sky research grant application.

I thought the S was boring in the pics but in the metal I really loved it. Guessing it will be the same with the 3, that's why I'm eager to see it, stop me buying a ICE.

Nice! Will pop in next week, better if it was St Leonards dealership.

Brave, I wouldn't touch the bumper due to the sensor array. Do you have access to a workshop manual?

Next set of tires, look for ones that have rim protectors. I had some Kuhmos with these and its worked ok. Thought i rashed my rims a few times but was ok others I thought it would be a big rash but was really small. If got rash already, dremmel then touch up paint. Not an ideal fix but if you...

Misleading title, he's saying current battery tech (that's available to them) does not meet their specifications. Lamborghini has always been progressive with their technology, its not that they are against EVs. Once videos of the Roadster crushing Lambos start to appear on youtube, I think...

Will it do actually do FSD or will that be the next revision or one after?... Agreed seems a waste of money to buy a DLC that doesn't exist and isn't legal yet.

I test drove a Subaru with their latest generation "eyesight" system and it worked great. Thought the Tesla system would of been far better... Well that's annoying and disappointing. That said its seems its a software issue that will be resolved OTA

Here in Australia too, I think the RHD models will have to have some sort of plate holder from factory. Thats not a bad solution, until some bump parking twat backs into it.

Glad he's doing it Elon works best in a private company like in SpaceX, away from stock price/short seller /investor BS/drama. Waste of his time and mental energy.

Great work! Puts things into perspective also shows how quickly things are improving.

BMW is luxury brand aimed at people who dont know any better. Tesla charges more and delivers less, if anything BMW pricing supports the post that people are being ripped off. Paint defects at delivery

Why would I care about what BMW charges?

Really? that will end up on the brake pads, I will reduce noise and vibrations but also reduce braking power. Better to paint it then take it to local garage and get the rotor machined if you are getting NVH.

When drove the S, I found you can enjoy it any speed. Usually performance cars you need to bounce off the limiter to enjoy it. I got to to dig up my dreamcast to play that again

I think $2K for paint is trolling.

I was thinking a front loader with ramps, 40*C 800rpm, express 15min wash because I care for the planet, maybe add fabric softener.

nice work but is there overspray on the rotor? if so not good, will gum up the brake pad

Can't justify your idiotic comments? Did i hurt your feelings? Nope, I will be buying a Tesla model 3 when RHD versions come out. I appreciate all cars but don't appreciate stupidity and hypocrisy. If you are so offended by people using their AC why dont you offer them a place in your car...

1. mind your own business, tell that to their face rather this little "safe space". 2. you're being a douche that will cause an accident. 3. mind your own business, tell that to their face rather this little "safe space". Add my own, smug self indulgent hippocritcal EV/Hybrid owners that claim...

I'd go for the BMW because its a worse car.

Wife has a point, if it for her just get the cheapy ICE. For Tesla, lower servicing costs. Against, accident repair, insurance, depreciation. Depends if you like the car and your financial position, if you're getting more debt that you comfortably afford then don't. My wife made the same...

Let Me Google That

I also noticed quite a few drivers reported their car locking them in the car then fault would occur with the AC causing them to be a freeze dried. Tesla service have been really nice about the issue and used chardonnay to reconstitute the drivers but Elon has been attacked on Twitter for using...

Nicest looking rush job I've seen on the EV automotive market so far.

>RHD version, doesn't exist yet, apart from that pretty good.

I test drove a P85+ when it came out I would say the same thing coming from a ye olde cable throttle car. It has to be limited otherwise it would just skid and crash. I work with electric turbo molecular pumps, those things are scary when they click on, its like a huge gun, huge power...

Manual is being phased out and will only be available in enthusiast class vehicles. I was the same when I test drove a CVT Subaru Levorg GTS. I'm going to keep my MT WRX for awhile after a got a new car for this reason or keep in a shed somewhere so when I want to smoke all four tire up at the...

If it was made in India I would not buy a Tesla.

I'm serious about the made in USA sticker to deter vandalism. Unfortunately here in Australia Id probably get a panel kicked in for it, thanks Trump. Very true, +5 Charisma When I got my WRX 15 years ago, there was a lot of hate for the car from the domestic guys. One night I rolled up the...

Yes and yes Yep falsification is part of science Yes but process of peer review is part of the process which might be confused with consensus. Not really empirical data still can be used support a hypothesis. You mentioned a flat earth, this was disproved by quite inaccurate and archaic...

Stick a "Made in USA" sticker on it, will cause a Redneck logic failure and error out.

I would say spend a few coin on a psychologist to get to the source of feeling inadequacy at the restaurant. Problem is there always fancier cars and what if there is a dock and someone parks a private yacht/cruiser, u JLY then? Personally if I had the money I'd go with a Zubr-class LCAC...

Really cool, nice to see. Doubt any other CEO showing up would be recognized and liked, Elon is something very different.

LOL you have little to worry about compared to these junkers. I see new range rover sports every week on the side of the road with the hood up, Ferraris love to spontaneously combust and old jags are rust held together by paint. If you do have an issue that what warranty is for, like every...

hodl Tesla is planning a big Model S/Model X interior refresh in Q3 2019 – full refresh in 2021
