    Recommendation for 18 inch wheels for Performance

    Hey all, sorry to revive an old thread, but does anybody know if the Konig Freeform wheels in 18x9.5 +35 will fit on a P3D+? Would be paired with Pirelli Trofeo 265/40/18s. Thanks in advance! Freeform - Konig Wheels

    NEMA 14-50 outlet with auto transfer switch?

    @telos what did you end up doing? I'm in the exact same situation that you in. Did the Dryer Buddy guy ever respond to you? My situation is identical except for the fact that since I'm in a townhouse, I don't have the option of upgrading my 100A service or adding a dedicated EV subpanel. As of...

    HW3 2019.16.2 Waiting room

    NoA has done this since it came out. The new bit that we with HW3 are still missing are unconfirmed *lane changes*. NoA will still take exits and freeway interchanges on its own.

    GPS Going Crazy

    I had this problem (HW3 P3D+), and it went away after I did the following: -Unpair your phone app from the car -Power off the car (Controls > Safety & Security > Power Off) -*Sit in the car* and don't touch anything for at least 5 minutes. This part is important. Don't get out of your seat and...

    Spotify

    I agree, it probably has terminated already but a big change like switching to Spotify is likely to be released alongside a major update like v9.1 or v10.

    Performance Waiting Room

    Can confirm, took delivery of my black/white today in Marina del Rey with spoiler and badge preinstalled. Had a couple small paint defects, one of which was mostly buffed out on site. The other was a little paint chip which they covered with some touch-up paint. Car has HW3 and came with the...

    Performance Waiting Room

    I ordered a black/white on 4/21 and taking delivery tomorrow in LA. FWIW I'm a previous owner trading in a model 3 but not sure if that still means anything.

    Review: Unplugged Performance Moderate Springs

    @UnpluggedP can you comment on whether this is true, and if so what were the changed made compared to the original moderates? I also read something about a change being made so that the rear doesn't look like it hangs quite as low?

    5% increase in power

    Yes, but Elon and the press release said the upgrade is coming to "all cars". I wouldn't be surprised if AWD non-P gets the same upgrade as the others, but they leave it off of the website so as to avoid cannibalizing P3D sales.

    Michelin Pilot Sport 4S - variants

    Slightly off topic, but -- has anyone tested PS4S vs PS A/S 3+ and been able to discern a significant difference in efficiency? Am I correct in assuming that, because the A/S 3's have a higher treadwear rating that they'd have a lower rolling resistance and therefore be more efficient?

    After a rollercoaster of emotions, I ended up taking delivery on Saturday anyway, just 5 hours late! Already put 400 miles on her and loving every second. For some reason EAP wasn't activated on my car, so still waiting on that, but she's a beaut!! IMG_0851 by tich posted Sep 3, 2018 at 12:14 PM

    Aaaand just like that...delayed. They just called and said it would be "a few more days due to logistical issue". Had a feeling this was gonna happen. So much for my Palm Springs adventure :( Gonna see if I can get a Model S for the weekend for my troubles

    I was too, but they just called and said my car won't be ready in time, "due to logistical issues". I knew this was gonna happen!! Delaying by "a few days".

    Silver AWD configurations and deliveries

    Nope, but I’m pretty sure it was just coincidence that I called at the right time. I called to make a change to the car and they told me I already had a VIN, so I just did what I could to expedite the process i.e. got my IDA’s email and reached out to him first.

    UPDATE: VIN official!! 995xx. Sticking with silver. No contact from IDA, but I called today to ask again about changing to blue and the rep gave me my IDA's email address. Sent Christopher an email and he called me back within minutes. Said I should be able to take delivery early next week and...

    Confirmed. I also called in yesterday and was told I have a VIN. Don't think it's critical as I wasn't doing it until a week or two ago, but figure it can't hurt.

    I used the backdoor link many times over the last few weeks to check and see if I could still edit. Did it again on Friday and this time changed to white seats. Got a VIN assigned on Monday. I'm thinking that you're fine. I would always to go the last page in the configurator and choose "Cancel...

    That's probably a conservative estimate. Troy's spreadsheet averages ~7 days from VIN to delivery in California. Much longer for midwest/east coasters who have to wait for the car to be shipped across the country

    AWD delivery thread

    Crazy. I switched to white interior on Friday and they said it would delay me by several weeks. Called in today and was told I have a VIN. Really want to switch to blue instead of silver but maybe I'll keep Aero's and just get aftermarket wheels. I feel like it would probably just delay me a few...

    Dang, exact same config as you and I reserved 4/1/16 and ordered 6/27 and also in LA. Just changed to white seats today so hopefully that means I'm comin up! Which wheels did you get?

    Nope, not even delivery cost. Everything's the same except white interior.

    Dual motor non performance thoughts

    Dual motor non performance thoughts

    Having driven both, does your butt dyno notice a significant difference in torque off the line? I test drove a RWD and P3D, and while the former was definitely quick, the latter had me feeling the skin on my face being pushed back when I floored it...hoping to maybe get juuust a smidge of that...

    Silver AWD configurations and deliveries

    It seems according to Troy's spreadsheet that they are in fact being made; it's just that it's the least popular color by far so there will inherently be fewer reports of people taking delivery of them. They do exist though!
