No Rollout but on a 3% decline too. 1' was 3.88s.Was that with or without rollout?
[Just a thought]Now that initial sales have probably been exhausted Tesla should:
1: Offer a 1 week trial period
2: Offer a 5% performance boost but ONLY for purchasers and maybe at least a hint of more to come
I keep oscillating between thinking this is a waste of money and being adamant I’ll but my it as soon as the weather is conducive to utilization of a speedier acceleration. I am not going to race the car but question whether bragging rights are worth the cost. It’s obviously not a safety or functional issue as the stock cars are fast enough. I also wouldn’t make a current purchase with any anti oof future cost recovery. I am in a position where $2k wouldn’t come close to negatively impacting my current or future quality of life by any means but at the same time time I am far from FU money.
All this to wonder if there is anyone in a similar position where they said F it and bought the upgrade and thought it was worth it/a waste of $2k.
Have you ever/would you ever opt for a 335i over a 328i? A hellcat over an srt? Splurged on the v6 accord?
Same decision, but cheaper and with no fuel efficiency impact.
To be honest, I traded in a 2009 Honda CRV for my Model 3. Those decisions have never been in play. I’ve also never been a car “guy.” Prior to the 3 cars have been a mechanism to get from A to B and as long as that journey was safe I didn’t much care about esthetics.

Sounds like you should deploy your $2000 elsewhere.To be honest, I traded in a 2009 Honda CRV for my Model 3. Those decisions have never been in play.

Dude. Live a little. I drop the hammer every time I drive. The acceleration boost just puts a bigger smile on my face. You weren’t a car guy because you just didn’t know what you were missing. It ain’t your fault.
Oh, I purposely try to catch every red if I’m first one at the light. This car is awesome and I love gunning it. I was just responding to the question. I have never previously made a car decision based on performance and passed on the Stealth 3 as it was $2k more, I would have lost $2k in state rebates and insurance would have been more. I’m still not completely sold on this being a good decision, however. This is why I am thinking of meeting halfway there in both speed and $$.

What about 1.94 60FT? Is there an improvement after Boost Acceleration Upgrade?Decided to take the Boosted 3 out to the strip today because nice weather like this in the middle of winter on a Sunday with nothing else going on is somewhat of a rare treat. Plus my folks wanted to see me racing so they joined to watch and record. It was kind of neat because the Mustang GT ran a 12.2 which was pretty much what I was running several months ago before the Boost and the last 5% power increase.
Managed to break my previous best with an 11.81 at 119.27 mph.

Don’t get the upgrade just for yourself, do it for the children!!!
The children: that is one of the biggest reasons I was tempted not to upgrade.
This will probably be the car my three-year-old learns to drive on. But a 16 year old does not need the temptation of a 4 second 0 to 60. I'm really hoping that sometime in the next 12 years Tesla adds a teenage driver mode.

If you have track mode you have a P, not a LR AWD.
If you didn't pay for one, you probably want to stop talking now
