I spent a lot of time reading the posts at this forum. I appreciate all the insight.
The car is for me and my wife encourage me to get it. (Good sign #1)
I happen to live 3.3 miles from one of the first certified Tesla repair facilities in the country, and a highly regard one too (Waukesha, Wisconsin? Really? Good sign #2)
Today I ordered an 85 with the following:
MC Red - I like all the colors. Normally I hate white but it was in my top 3. (Along with blue) Depending on the light and the photographer, MC red seems to change from an almost orangeish-red which I'm not crazy about to a light cherry red, which I think looks really sharp. I haven't seen it in person and I won't have a chance to before I confirm. Some comments would really help.
Tan - Black and gray also looked very nice. Tough decision. I think tan is the most popular for MC red, followed closely by black. Not so many grays. Actually, I think cloth seats are more comfortable but almost everyone here gets leather.
Obeche Matte - Seemed to go good with tan
Tech Package - Not much to debate there
Parking Sensors - My wife brushed the side of the garage about a month after we bought our Lexus RX400h. Didn't have to think twice about this one :smile:.
Subzero - I live in Wisconsin. Seemed like a nice thing to do for the backseat passengers. Seems like the other features in this package don't work so well so I'm buying it for the seat heaters. Jake from Michigan would approve.
I read that Wisconsin might not be the best place for 21" tires. Also the 21" tires were noisier so I didn't seriously consider the P85.
I will probably confirm in a couple days. Why wait? Might as well have it for most of our incredibly long summer.
