    Sell me on a used P85D vs model 3 performance

    SHORT VERSION - get the P85D, or possibly a P90D with the correct version battery. Ideally any of the possible major issues would have already occurred and been repaired under warranty, and if you are lucky you may be able to get a CPO from someone with some remaining portion of that CPO...

    Sorry, I meant that when I drive now it seems like in uses a lot more energy than it did. Menaing I have increased battery consumption for similar driving conditions pre-upgrade.

    2017 Aston Martin Rapide S reminded me why I love my P85D

    I had a chance to drive a buddy's 2017 Aston Martin Rapide S on July 4th and boy was it pretty to look at with its 4 doors. It claimed to be pretty fast with its V-12 5935 cm3 / 361.4 cui, 411.5 kW / 560 PS / 552 hp (ECE) with a 0-60 time of 4.0 seconds so I took it out and turned it on and...

    P85D & P90D - 2019.20.1 Firmware

    Last night I updated my 2015 P85D to 2019.20.2.1. Today I noticed that I that my kwh/mile was in the low 400s. Very strange

    I should by from private seller (not dealer) or Tesla official website

    To be clear I bought my nP85D from a private party that had remaining CPO warranty. But why would someone by the Model X in the link posted up above by Model B FOR SALE: 2018 Tesla Model X 100D | eBay which only has 3 years (or less) or 45k miles on the original warranty? IF for the about...

    I should by from private seller (not dealer) or Tesla official website

    To give you an idea, there are some good private party deals to be have. I have a 2015 S P85D+ with 52k miles on it, yet I still have 2 more years and 23k miles under my CPO warranty. Today I was offered $37,800 for it from Tesla on trade (I was considering upgrading to a Raven) That price is...

    Buying a CPO vehicle. Ship it or fly and drive?

    There is an alternative where it doesn't have to be drive or ship. You can do both. The 1st Tesla I bought I flew from Atlanta to Cincinnati and drove it straight home (only about 500 miles). That trip is where I learned abut supercharging range etc. My 2nd Tesla I bought it from a Forum...

    Any advise on purchasing a used Tesla from the experts;-)

    What about this one that is in Atlanta? 85 kWh Model S 5YJSA1H15FFP78846 | Tesla I am also in Atlanta and the folks here were immeasurably helpful when I was nearing the end of my 2015 85D lease and decided I "needed" a 2015 P85D. After suffering through lots of questionable CPO photos, I ended...

    Lease return inspection - Tesla Finance, not US Bank - Autovin?

    Curb rash was $125 per rim. I did it about 10 days before my turn in but had the luxury of having my other Tesla waiting so it didn't matter when I turned in. $125 per rim is cheaper and easier than trying to fix them. My bigger concern was some tiny window chip I had never scene but Autovin...

    Lease return inspection - Tesla Finance, not US Bank - Autovin?

    I had a very different experience today with Autovin and windshield chips. I posted it in the general Model S forum by accident. I can repost it here but don't want to add clutter.

    Tesla Lease End Inspection Info - Tesla Finance

    The Autovin report has a disclaimer that it is an estimate. The $125 for the wheels seems to be legit as I have seen that cost in elsewhere in the forums

    Tesla Lease End Inspection Info - Tesla Finance

    All, The lease on my 2015 S 85D through Tesla finance expires in a couple of weeks and I wanted to provide a brief update. Tesla reached out to me about a week ago and gave me the info for an Autovin inspection and we also scheduled my turn in date. I have 21inch rims that I have scraped the...

    Finally swapped out my 21” for 19”

    Thank you all. I mistyped, as clearly my signature says cyclones. It has been a long day of "watching football" Either way I think the 21 grey's look awesome.

    Finally swapped out my 21” for 19”

    I decided to add the photos so you can see what I mean. The top is my 2015 85D with the 21" grey wheels The bottom is my 2015 P85D with the 19" silver slipstream The grey look a ton better to me.

    Finally swapped out my 21” for 19”

    I have the 21" grey on one car and the 19" slipstream silver on another. To me the 21" grey are a lot better looking, but my biggest complaint about that car has always been the road noise. I have had the P85D with the 19" for a couple of weeks, and it is much quieter and I also noticed that my...

    Beware of 5YJSA4H48FF091551

    I am very curious about what appeared to be hail damage. Was that included in your body shop quote? I am very happy you got the car and hope you get everything repaired for a reasonable price. It really is a beautiful car. Do you mind sending me the before and after photos of the rear quarter...

    Beware of 5YJSA4H48FF091551

    So after emailing the CPO advisors about several cars over the 2 weeks prior, I discovered that they are not very responsive and way understaffed. It was hit or miss with photos and quality of photos. There were about 5 instances where I emailed to get photos and never heard back because the car...

    2015 P85D with Insane mode, new tires, very fun to drive

    I wanted to let every one know that I am the proud new owner of this vehicle. Dealing with Aaron was a pleasure, and when I flew to Colorado to pick it up the car it was exactly as advertised. I am so happy to have the car I wanted without the hassle of the CPO process. I will update my...

    For those of you that saw my post about bad CPO experience and car with about 8k in body damage, this is the car. Tesla is supposed to refund my deposit, but they have relisted it. Beautiful car with lots of options, but has some bad body damage so beware. I am attaching some of the most...

    Terrible CPO Experience Today - Moral is Really Check Out the Car and/or Photos

    as an update, Tesla has said they can refund me my deposit but it will take about 3 weeks. In the meantime, I will keep looking at CPO cars and see if I can get more info from posters about negotiating the price of a CPO. The adviser said they wont, but I am fairly certain I have seen posts...

    Terrible CPO Experience Today - Moral is Really Check Out the Car and/or Photos

    In theory. But I have tried to get pictures for about a week and watched 3 or 4 cars I was interested in be bought before I ever got pictures. My point is not the pictures, it is that no one should be selling a used car with 8k of body damage

    Terrible CPO Experience Today - Moral is Really Check Out the Car and/or Photos

    We all know that these CPO cars are anything but. I currently have 2015 S 85D with a lease expiring the end of the year. I have been looking at 2015 S P85D's. Thanks to Ev-cpo I got a notification of a price decrease on a a car I had been watching. I immediately placed my $2,500 deposit and...

    Somebody buy this smoking CPO deal

    #shanejackson I'd email this guy below, and I got his name from a former "responsive" CPO adviser who is now handling new cars. Travis is semi-responsive, 24 ish hours, but I'd bet he would be more responsive to you if you have put down the 2500. Good luck Travis James Moses | Used Vehicle...

    2016 MX90D $79,500

    Yes you can extend the warranty through Tesla for 2 year or 4 year. Easier if the OP does it. That is a beautiful car and a nice price. It has me reevaluating my decision to get rid of my 85D for a P85D as it would make my wife much happier.

    FS 2014 P85D+

    Does it have the Tech package with Autopilot? I am a little unclear because in Upgrade Options it says Tech Package and in Standard Options it says "Autopilot". Are you willing to share the VIN and/or post a photo of the sticker? Thank you.

    Ghost Vehicle while using Model S AP1 Autosteer on Highway - Running 17.26.17

    Thank you all for your replies. There was no road signs or an overhead bridge. I think I will wait until I/whenf it happens again and then deal with the service center or add it to my list to bring up next time at the service center. Thank you all again.

    Ghost Vehicle while using Model S AP1 Autosteer on Highway - Running 17.26.17

    I have seen a few posts about ghost vehicles appearing while using AP in a Model X, but I wanted to recount my experience yesterday in my Model S. I was driving about 70 in Autosteer using AP1 in the HOV lane on I-85 in Atlanta. No cars near me at all. Suddenly I got the loud beeping noise...

    Approximately what percentage of your driving time is Auto Pilot on?

    I think your results may be a little skewed depending on how people interpret "Auto Pilot". Personally, I use TACC 50-75% of the time, though I only use "Auto Steer" <33% of the time.

    Tesla's Policy on Lease Transfer?

    It depends who the lease is actually through (ie Tesla Finance, US Bank, etc.) If through Tesla Finance, they allow lease transfers. The person assuming the lease must complete a Lease Assumption Credit Consumer Application. If approved, the transferee pays a credit app fee, a transfer fee and...
