Ended: $2K Off Instead Of $1K From Current VA & OH Owners, Confirmed

[gizmoboy]

I'm so glad you could explain this to us. Could you explain this to the legislators in Texas? The "galleries" there won't allow people to test drive cars or even tell them how much the car costs. Clearly there is no difference between a dealership, a 'store' and a gallery.

You can test drive cars in the Dallas gallery, no problem. And they can bring up the website right in store to show you how much things cost.

Perhaps this is a recent change in the past 6 months? Has always been since I started actively shopping this summer.

Too bad we can't sniff the line for the URL that it uses to pull down the list. I'm sure it's HTTPS, so that's not easy to extract.

It is not HTTPS and easy to find using a proxy. Would like to post it but includes a personal token (so it highlights your own row). Have not looked into what else the token can do.

On iOS it should be HTTPS according to App Transport Security (APS). I guess it could be plaintext on Android.

The URL should work without the user token-- have you tried that yet?

Anyone else pick up their car with the $2,000 incentive?
They took $1,000 off the price of the car, but for the other $1,000, the took it off the doc fees. Is it really $1,200 for doc fees normally???
That seems like a LOT.

I bought in OH and got $2000 off the price of the car, off the top.

I got the $2000 off from a VA referral, it came off the top before taxes. We also have a doc fee here (CDN$1300) that gets added before tax but after credits (trade-in, referral, gov't EV incentives), so no real difference if had been taken off 1k from the car and 1k from doc fee. But anyhow on my final purchase agreement it shows a full 2k referral credit right off the price.

Hi e-FTW,

I live in NY and am considering a RWD 70. I would be grateful for feedback on your experience with your S70. How does it handle in rain? Have you experienced driving it in snow? Does the AP work well with the RWD?

Thanks in advance.

Hey JB, this will make this a bit OT, but the highlights are:

• This is my first RWD car.
• When I do get rain, and drive like a normal person, I rarely notice I am in a RWD car.
• If I get too enthusiastic, traction control keeps things in check really well.
• Even in the dry at low speeds, gunning it on a straight onramp, I can feel it working, because of the instant torque.
• Some people might say this is why the AWD cars handle better. I like it, as it makes it feel alive. This thing is a beast.
• I have turned TC off in the rain to see, and things got hairy quick. Man, that torque!
• I am in California, so no snow. Might take it up to Tahoe soon, but that requires chains anyways, so no good data for you.
• I am from Montreal, and generations of us drove in winter with RWD cars, and made it. And if you check out Bjorn Nyland's YouTube channel, you will see that the proper tires make a world of difference. He has studded ones, but it is Norway...
• Don't skimp on the winter tires (four of them) if you will drive in the snow and you should be fine. Unless you are not near NYC, but way upstate: then I might add the 5k$ to get AWD.
• I don't see what difference I should be seeing with AP. It is magic. And gets better all the time.

There is a new, fair but short lived, referral program. Happy to send you my link if you PM me.
Order the car, you will not regret it!

This referral program is long since ended. There have been two new programs since this one went away 10/31/15. For info on the latest referral program, please see this thread: http://www.teslamotorsclub.com/show...sers-of-New-Model-S-Delivery-Before-4-15-Only

Admins, please lock down this thread already as it confuses new buyers.
