So I know that local charging is frowned at SC's but what if Tesla charged an extra fee for people who wanted to use it? As in 1000$ for long distance and 3000$ for local access? The money could be used to expand the network and I'm sure they could control it via software, as in stop people...

The saving is actually really good advice, outside of the fact that saving money is always a good idea I'm very much a goal oriented person, if I'm going to survive the 18-30 month wait for this thing I need an outlet and trying to save 60k in time to buy the car is a pretty good one!

I reserved about a week after the reveal and intend on getting at the very least 20k in options and depending on the final price might even go for the fully loaded model. I fully expect someone that was waiting in line on the 31st who wants a base model would get it before me, I might get...

I certainly appreciate the sentiment, I started a savings account for my Tesla already mostly as way to make the waiting more bearable, feels like I am doing something constructive

There is a new podcast called "the Tesla show" and also "Talking Tesla". For my money ride the lightning is the best one, the host is in love with the subject matter lol, if I could I would buy him a model S right now lol. They all cover the same news really but I love listening to podcasts so...

It's difficult to imagine Tesla not Doing everything to move up the ramp in light of the interest they have received so far, I would expect the criticism they would get if the person who orders a car 4 days after the reveal is expected to wait till 2020 to take delivery would be pretty crazy...

Not soon enough lol :( I subscribed to 3 podcasts and 3 RSS feeds since I ordered this thing, not sure how I will survive the 2 year wait!

The price is actually 43750$ according to current exchange rates, the CAD has been steadily climbing up for a while now.

If it's included included in the premium upgrades package I will almost certainly be getting it, my priorities for the car are any technology and comfort upgrades as absolute musts app followed closely by AWD, range and air suspension.

All of the reasons matter but if I am being honest the one that really makes me so passionate about the car is the technology. Really can't wait to see what reveal #2 will bring

I don't think they have a choice, I really think Tesla can't afford to make 500000+ of their customers angry because they have to wait 4+ years after they ordered a product to finally take delivery on it. I really don't envy them, the ramp up to model 3 production would of been hard enough with...

None, as a matter a fact I don't even have a license at the moment, that particular problem will be fixed in 2 weeks. Honestly before my dad got the model S I never really felt compelled to get or own a car, I mostly walk, cycle during the summer and use public transit and uber the rest of the...

I am actually probably going to end up buying a new place before I take delivery of the Tesla, I can probably afford both now but the voice of reason says that if I am going to blow 60k on a car I will have to make damn sure I do everything I reasonably can to save up before then.

im expecting something like 70k after taxes so 62000$ after the QC rebate. I would expect to be able to fit AP, AWD, larger battery cold weather package and premium interior. I started a savings account, my plan is to pay for everything beyond the base model directly from money saved in the...

I am curious how what is looking like really long wait times will affect the public perception of the M3, unless Tesla can seriously ramp up much faster then expected some of the orders won't be fulfilled for years past the initial delivery date. I think it's one thing for more affluent...

I don't believe I would be satisfied spending this much money on a car and just getting the base model, this is probably the most I will ever spend on a car in my life so I want to make sure it's a good experience.

Autopilot and any other tech related features are an absolute must, won't buy the car without them. Winter package, premium interior and sound system are highly likely as well. AWD, larger and panoramic roof are all extremely likely depending on the final cost.

My dad, his model S is the reason why I ordered my model 3
