    Ordering S60 -- $5k left in budget -- Thoughts?

    If your budget is final (i.e. won't add anything later), I'd add EAP now. You will have AP1.0 functionality by the time you get your car and most of EAP should be ready in the first half of next year I think. I think you get a lot more from AP2.0 than you can from D. This is my personal...

    Thanks for the pointer! Looks like some fun reading :). I guess we can close this thread...

    SW limited 60 BMS hacked and shows more than 60 kWh usable

    I just saw this post on electrek and didn't see it posted here. Tesla’s hacked Battery Management System exposes the real usable capacity of its battery packs It looks like a Model X 60D showed around 62.4 kWh usable while the full usable capacity of the 75 kWh pack is around 72.6 kWh...

    Wiki Model S Delivery Update

    Yeah definitely lucky. I actually saw your name on the spreadsheet and I assumed I got an "early" production because of your order (assumed they were grouping us). Sorry to hear yours got delayed over mine :(. Might be the dual motor or Carbon decor that delayed yours :/

    Wiki Model S Delivery Update

    I had the same thing happen to me today... My car has been in production since 12/3 and this morning when I checked, it changed from "December to Early January" to "December 10, 2016 - December 24, 2016". I was excited and kept checking today (the Refresh Syndrome is real...) and about an hour...

    Wiki Model S Delivery Update

    Confirmed 11/16 night (VIN 11/17 morning) and been refreshing My Tesla multiple times a day since ;). I almost couldn't believe my eyes late last night (12/3) when I logged in to My Tesla on my phone and it said "Your Tesla is in production." I'm so used to it saying "Your Tesla has entered the...

    The time is now, save $2k on a Model S 60

    Maybe you have till the end of 11/22 to place an order? :D OP, great summary on the reasons to get an S 60 now. I made a longer summary below (for people who haven't seen it yet): Model S 60: Made a document to help me decide (could help you too)

    Model S 60: Made a document to help me decide (could help you too)

    Congrats on the purchase, and no problem! Happy I could help :)! I'm not too familiar with the CPOs but it sounds like yours is essentially NEW since it is still in the factory, so I'd assume you are able to get the rebates (but yeah double check with Tesla or something).

    Model S 60: Made a document to help me decide (could help you too)

    Agree that those on the fence for a M3 could considering waiting until mid next year. The rebates would still be available which are the main savings anyway. You only miss on the free supercharging really (I'm guessing referrals will continue and $2k price increase goes towards 75 kWh upgrade if...

    Model S 60: Made a document to help me decide (could help you too)

    I'd say try and get it now unless you have a good reason to wait. Take into account $2k increase, supercharging deal and the amount of money you would spend on gas in the meantime if you got the car sometime next year (also delay in federal rebate if that matters to you). No one really knows if...

    Model S 60: Made a document to help me decide (could help you too)

    This falls in my disclaimers list ;). I personally am planning on charging for free at work for now, so I assume electricity will be "free". I guess it would be useful for me to note how much others who would be charging at home would pay (though it depends how much they charge at home vs...

    Model S 60: Made a document to help me decide (could help you too)

    Yes definitely, agree. I mentioned something in the slides called "cost of acceleration" which I think is along the lines of what you are mentioning. Basically, if you have a 5.5sec BMW and you utilize that speed, you are not getting the rated MPG. You are getting 20MPG or less as you mentioned...

    Model S 60: Made a document to help me decide (could help you too)

    Thanks again everyone for the feedback! I just updated the slides (V2.1). Thanks for the info. I'll keep an eye out once I finalize my order :) Good eye. Fixed. Good point. Added. BMW claims 5.5sec with the 535i today (being replaced by 540i next year) and it gets 20city/31hwy MPG (new...

    Model S 60: Made a document to help me decide (could help you too)

    Thanks for the comments everyone! Yeah the more I think about it, most people on this forum already know these things (since if you are on this forum, you are probably already doing your research ;)). That said, my coworkers and friends have found it useful. Maybe I'll upload something to...

    Model S 60: Made a document to help me decide (could help you too)

    I am new to the forum but have been trying to read up as much as possible in the last 1-2 weeks (when I have time) to help me decide on my purchase decision (pulled trigger tonight and am in my 7 day grace period now). I decided to put all my thoughts onto paper (literally ppt slides), and I...
