I've been reading these Forums for months, and researching everything Tesla. The more I read the more impressed I was with the company and Musk's vision for it. I think it was watching the Supercharger network become a reality over the last few months that clinched it for me. So last weekend after a test drive my wife and I ordered an S85, silver, black roof, grey interior, Lacewood trim and Yacht floor, Tech package, High Fidelity sound, air suspension, fog lights, HPWC, premium interior lighting, parking sensors, and Paint Armor. I've never spent so much money on a car, but it will be worth it! Had to sell one of my Porsches to make it happen. The Tesla ordering process was incredibly easy. Charlie at the Burlingame showroom was super helpful!
I've downloaded the PDF file "A Quick Guide for Owners" and read through it. It's the shortest manual for a car I've ever seen. It doesn't seem to describe exactly how to save multiple Driver Profiles, but I'm sure it is obvious when you actually go through the procedure on the touchscreen. I'm wondering if it is possible to associate a profile with a specific key? Since both my wife and I will be driving the car, it would be cool if my key would automatically call up my profile.
So far, before actually owning the car, there is only one thing that I wish was different on the car. I don't understand why the turn signal stalk is the lower of the two stalks on the left side of the wheel. I've owned a lot of cars and don't recall every driving a car where the turn signal stalk was so low. First time I went to use it of course my hand flicked the cruise control stalk. Not a big deal obviously, I'm sure I'll get used to it, but it will take some mental adjusting when I switch between cars. And I see this issue has been discussed in this topic. Apparently it is a Mercedes design.
So now I'm a "waiter"...
