    "Creep" Mishap

    Performance vs. Base Model; 60KW vs. 85KW battery choice?

    I'm just about to finalize my paperwork with the current configuration of 85KW battery, blue, panoramic roof, tech package, tan leather, active air suspension, partial shelf, paint armor and twin chargers (for possible future upgraded home charger) and 19" wheels.
