    Color drama

    I was never very happy with the poor color choices avalaible for the Model 3. However I decided for silver, with red being a close second. In the meantime silver color is gone and the red costs a whopping (considered it's only paint) 2500$. Long story short, I'm not satisfied with any of the...

    Looks like you can name it and it will show just under the selected gear.

    Different door handle colors?

    It's probably not worth mentioning and it could be some strange optical illusion... but did anyone notice the color difference in one pic from the user youyouxue? :D The left side has two identical colored handles:

    PG Elektrus

    An electric car based on the Lotus Elise. Seems familiar, huh? It's a german manufacturer situated in Regensburg, the car is built in Düsseldorf and there should be 667 units. The manufacturer is proud that the car is way better than the Tesla Roadster. 0-100 kmh in under 3 seconds, max...

    Estimated range - totally nuts!

    Ever had 999 km of range? Ever had the range drop to 2 km after 400 meters of drive after a full charge? There's a story behind all this which I'll reveal later.

    In some countries it's obbligatory. Which one do you have and were do you put it in the Roadster? Mine is taking to much place.

    Lightning Strike

    What do you do with the Roadster if a heavy storm is approaching and your house is without lightning conductor? We pull out all the plugs of television, computer, etc. Is it better to do the same with the Roadster?

    It's over 100.000!!

    It's on Facebook, Incompatible Browser | Facebook. Hansjörg von Gemmingen broke through the 100.000 km (62.137 miles) mark with his Tesla Roadster. Hope to get some details on battery capacity. It sure is a good news for all of us Roadster owners.

    Mountain or lowlands?

    We all know that the regenerative breaking on the Tesla Roadster works very well. If you're going down a mountain street, you will recuperate a lot of energy. Now a question came to my mind. Is it possible, that driving on mountain streets will give you more range? To simplify I list two...

    No extended warranty anymore

    I was told today by a Tesla representative, that they won't offer the 3 years extended warranty for additional 3.850 € anymore. This goes for Europe, don't know if it's the same for other countries. This totally sucks. I have to reconsider strongly buying a Roadster.

    Ground clearance

    I'm seriously considering buying a Roadster, but there are many points and question marks on the contra side of my list. So I will continue bothering you with silly questions for a while. One ? is the ground clearance of the car. I think the 5,1 inches are much for a sports car, but I fear I...

    Tall Roadster drivers

    Are you over 6 feet tall? Then please comment on this topic. I would like to know how in your opinion the visibility is. How tall are you? Any problems in seeing road signs, semaphores? Is the rear mirror in the way? Does the steering wheel hinder the view at the speed indicator? Thank...
