I got an offer to switch to Plaid with no discounts, no nothing. Switching probably to Audi etron GT

Hmm I may take the delivery anyway after the good service in Vantaa. They patiently listened my whining and were very helpful and considerate; they even supported in designing an updated one and gave thorough advice on how to cancel the current one. It was such a good service that I will...

Seems there are a few non-updated Teslas for sale in Finland soon. Care to buy my cheap 20’’ wheels, puddle lights, all season floor mats and/or the front storage drawer? I may switch to M3.

My Tesla’s status switched just from Train in the US directly to ”arrived to Europe”. Perhaps they drove it with train from the US to Netherlands. I will probably cancel my order due to updates as well.

I am about to cancel as well, because of the updates late last week. Will reorder the new version.

If it is 60 then it is not Corsa, although the text stated that. (I think Corsa was above the 220 threshold). I found from Alfa Romeo Giulia Quadrifoglio: 6th Place - 2017 Motor Trend Best Driver's Car - MotorTrend that it was Pirelli P Zero Corsa AR Asimmetrico. Then it is fair to use Cup 2...

To destroy part of that illusion, P Zero Corsa is a street tyre, something close to Pilot Sport 4 and slower than P4S. Pilot Sport Cup 2 is a track day tyre comparable to Pirellin P Zero Trofeo (albeit a bit slower). My butt is a rather educated one, but like I highlighted in another thread...

GT-R. 0-60 absolutely. That is where BEV is at its strongest. MS will be faster on 0-60 than my mildly tuned GT-R as it needs to be launched with wheel spin in order to keep turbos rolling. Like said, I would be happy to be wrong on that one.

No. I would be happy to be wrong on that. But I doubt e.g. BMW M3 vs. Tesla M3 would turn that way round. Edit: That would be one argument less for owning an ICE vehicle. But having driven both cars, the only way that could to my experience happen is on very twisty stop-and-go track, where AWD...

Seems now you are not speaking for yourself. In my view, Model 3 looks like something between a duck and a frog, and I would have never switched to so slowly accelerating car as P3D, I did not feel it handles that well, and objectively most sporty ICE cars in the same category are faster around...

I think they disassemble the car a bit for the shipment, and re-assemble in Europe. Tracking your Tesla from the factory to the UK

Mine has been in that state since (at least) 26 March :) I ordered the car on the first day after the price cut. I read from somewhere that this state takes 17 days on average. I am well past that. We probably will possibly get our cars with the same ship.

I think P3D had a significant weight shift when unloading throttle, or rear regen is very high. I had a relatively high speed corner during a test drive which started winding in. I lifted the throttle rather quickly and I started to brake as it tightened. The car unloaded the rear rather harshly...

Extremely nice racey look (ex the tow bar :) ).

What? You don't like the world's fastest mini bus?

Looks good mate but are those tyres or a round of gaffer tape around the wheels? =)

Rear should be ok (I'm surprised if there is a problem; Typically 10.5 wheel has ET of 35-38), but front may be a bit too much inwards. Typically 9'''s offset is 30-35.

That seems like the air suspension is broken.

I agree that 35 profile is close to optimal given the selection for the road tyres, but I am almost sure the car is still traction limited. I am betting on smaller and lighter wheels, and I chose relatively light-weight 20'' wheels with MS Cup 2's in 255/40 and 285/35 for my P100D. I will report...

According to Finnish financial daily Kauppalehti, referring to German Schwacke, Tesla Model S has maintained its value better than Porsche Panamera (3y and 60,000 km). The article does not detail if this was before the price cuts. Therefore, the second-hand value may not fall as quickly as I...

The best looking wheels I have seen under Tesla. I have been looking for OZ Challenge lookalikes but in 20''. But these look super mean as well.

To be honest, I thought that they would come with an excuse that they have found increasing efficiencies from elsewhere and this hike could be avoided. It seems I was wrong. Good that we did not make the bet with Saimaannorppa. :)

For this kind of requests (I know I am a bit late to help WillemJan) I would recommend Plugsurfing app. It includes 80% of the European chargers, and it is possible to start charging from the app.

All seven showroom 75Ds disappeared from Tesla's web page in 5 days after their price decreased to EUR 71k. And Finland is a very small market.

According to this page they are available in 20’’. 8.5 to front and 10 rear. Alloy wheels - Ultraleggera HLT - OZ Racing

Marvellous! Can you post a picture please. I would love to see them under MS!

Or Tesla forums, for that matter. Well, I guess I will see that myself soon enough.

Hi guys, Has anyone tested Model S with Oz Racing's 20'' Ultraleggeras. I have not found a single picture with Tesla MS on them. There are few pictures of MS with 20'' wheels and even fewer on Oz. I would like to have a broader tyre selection of 20'', including the likes of Michelin Sport Cups...

Reliability reports are a bit more dire for Tesla. According to CNBC article referring to Consumer Reports it was the 3rd weakest brand in terms of reliability. The web is full of commentary on CR's way to measure reliability, and let's not go into that here. But it should be a better indication...

If it looked a bit more like the concept version I could bet my Tesla for that. Now...not so sure. I was on the brink of reserving that before Tesla prices dropped. Fortunately I did not, as the design was so much watered down. Unless they just test the technology in Panamera's chassis and come...

I could almost bet on that. Porsche is one of the most desired brands in the world, and thus far has always maintained its premium. Also, this will be their first EV, so has a chance of becoming some sort of collectors' item. The real world spy photos suggest that it looks a Panamera with an RC...

Well that's what they told me. I just pressed the button :D Honestly, I think EUR 100k is a good price point for an EV with ok quality and Ludicrous performance. I personally would not pay much more than that. Porsche Taycan will be in the market soon, and it will definitely stomp Tesla in...

I hit the order button for Model S immediately after the price drop. Sales Reps expected that the price was wrong as it was below that of the US. I thought its fine; then I won't just take the car... But it was true so I just sold my GT-R to my friend and I'm now waiting for the delivery. I...
