People paid 1/3 of what I paid to get damn close to a P3D-.
I want ludicrous for my P3D- for New Years.
I’m kidding but I totally would pay a couple more K to get 1/2 second off my 0-60 on the P3D-.
I’m very happy for the AWD people though so please now SHUT THE HECK UP!
I jest.

I want absurdly ludicrous for my P3D-, 0-60 in 1.2s or the whole deal's off.........

...you're not making much sense here...
Are you trying to claim FSD is $2000 again?
Yeah you seem pretty confused about several things.
The P and AWD had the same hardware (drivetrain wise anyway) in 2018....and some did in early 2019.
The AWD has had a different rear drive unit since early-ish 2019 though.
Though I'm not clear what that has to do with pricing?
How are you accessing Teslas internal software like that (on a newer Tesla- not one of the more ancient early ones folks have rooted fairly easily), including insuring when it phones home there's no issue with your config not matching what the back end says you should have?

16 Mb of RAM? Dang, you probably had to take out a second mortgage for that.........
I remember 100MHz, in mid 90's that was so fast and high dollar

Is it safe to assume since all the additional power comes from the front motor the AWD did get the reject rear drive units?
Edit: No way I will buy this with the winter tires currently on my car. On the other hand since the additional power is in the front perhaps tire wear will be more even.

What is P3D+?
Basically the regular performance you can order straight from the website, aka "On Menu". It comes with the PUP ( 20 wheels, bigger brakes, spoiler, lowered, along with the software)

I would have to concur. Have not had any traction issues whatsoever since turning AWD+. Perhaps some owners should be checking their tire tread's now that we're pushing nearly 500 hp from the battery?
In all honesty, I don't think my car is that special. I have a few weight reduction "mods" (slightly lighter wheels, rear rotors and 12v battery) but that's it. I am OCD when it comes to testing properly thanks to others on these forums. I always go to the same area with a good surface, always charged up to a high SoC, always a level surface with between 0.0 and -1.0% slope, always take out all loose items in the car, and I'm not a heavyweight at 180 lbs. I usually do half a dozen runs or so then post the best one. I think you will find many people reporting times on the internet or on Dragy probably do not go to these lengths and that's a contributing factor.

It's a Reddit post, like everything else Fred steals and pretends is his.
Can someone explain how torque in the Performance is still slightly higher throughout higher speeds on this chart compared to the LR AWD with the acceleration upgrade (yellow) , but horsepower looks like it ends up being even between the two cars at higher speeds?
In the ICE world if one car had more torque than another car at a given rpm, it would show more horsepower at that rpm...

Some say its not worth it. Anyone who got it didn't regret it.
I guess:
Is probably Tesla not adding additional extra power to the rear motor (all the juice is added to the front) , only to include ALL LR AWD owners ? (both 990 and 980 motors).
Say that 990 is already maxed out , but Tesla wants to include 100% LR AWD owners to the potential buyes of the Boost upgrade.

I hope they bump the performance again for the AWD+ in future free upgrades for those that bought it. Maybe this eventually goes to P- numbers. P- should really be a after purchase upgrade for AWD anyway, the amount of time “searching” for P- with employees has to be a huge waste of time.....and give them only half of the bump for the same price!
