    P3D[+] for a spirited driver

    I just read an entertaining thread at Why aren't car review sites raving about the Model 3 Performance's amazing value? : teslamotors and recalled that my P3D+ buying decision was far from black and white.

    Model 3 vibration through the steering wheel. Any help appreciated.

    I've had my car for a few months now and it has been flawless until recently. I'm getting a vibration through the steering wheel.

    How well does AP handle cross winds?

    While heading down a cold windy highway last week with a tight grip on the steering wheel I was thinking (as I do quite often now) how would FSD handle this? So I was curious how well AP currently handles crosswinds at highway speeds.

    Ford's Active Damping Suspension

    As I marvel at all the good things my Model S does, I can always hope for more. I saw this article about active damping on Ford's new Fusion V6. It would be nice to have in some form on all vehicles. http://www.roadandtrack.com/new-cars/car-technology/news/a28232/fords-fusion-pothole-skip/ The...

    Carbon Fiber Rims

    I've been living under a rock, because I just found out that Carbon Fiber Rims exist, and the first thought I had was how would these affect the performance of a Model S. I'm torn right down the middle between an 85D and a 70D, but taking either as a starting point, I was wondering if the more...

    P85D Wheel and Suspension Options - Seeking Advice

    I know the topic of 21" vs 19" and air vs coil has been discussed at length (I have read the threads). I have converted a P85 order (19", coil) to a P85D. The P85D order was initially configured as (21", air) because other choices were not offered. I'm wondering of I should switch to my...
