Oh wow, thanks for the info. My early P100D had full regen even above 95%. Of course had none at 100%.
P100D is a 400V nominal big pack. I have a smaller pack (350V). I have less regen max and so likely it starts phasing the regen sooner since the pack can't take as much power (or transmit -- max is 353kW).

OK…. WHY, do you drive so much you need that much juice every day? Is it so low at night to have to push 80amps to get it charged by the time you leave in the morning. These batteries and happiest between 20-80%, no doubting that. I let it go down to 30% and then plug it in and get it up to 70-80%. I also set it to 30amps because there is no rush. I charge up to 95- 100% just before I leave for a trip and I have no concerns about superchargeing up to 80%. I just don’t understand why someone would charge at higher rates that what you need to leave in the morning. My old M-5 could drive on the freeway in 3rd gear at 6000rpm but why would you do it, shift up and let it run at 2,500rpm. Take it easy on your equipment and it will take it easy on you.
Service guy assured me of the urgency to them and the Fremont Engineering team to get this resolved as quickly as possible. I am sure they are also trying to figure out what the issue was. I am sure they want to make sure this is a 1 in 1,000,000 instance while they are ramping up production.
Them replacing the battery on a new car isn’t cheap.

You can go to waze.com and then click live map. From there you can get directions
How did you know there was an issue? Did the car just die ?
Thanks! I've never futzed with the browser in the M3 (my wife's comment about using Waze on it was, "Yeah, if you can get the browser to work...") so if they've improved the browser experience and Waze will now be viable on the new S, that's great.

So @Vijet was correct. I only had to wait a few hours for a more specific delivery window. But there's a catch...

I disagree with this advice. I think it really depends on the electricity rates you pay and whether you have Time of Use rates to deal with. Here in San Diego, I have an EV TOU plan where I only pay $.09 per kWh from midnight to 6:00 am. This only gives me 6 hours per night to charge at this reduced rate. If I charge from 4:00-9:00 pm I pay an absolutely ridiculous $.56 per kWh and $.31 at all other times. Therefore, charging at 48 Amps is essential for me to be able to fully charge the car in the 6 hour time period. The added cost of a wall connector quickly pays for itself with the money I save on charging.

Ouch. Our normal all day hourly rate is .011/kwh in Chicago area. I can't imagine that being the hourly discounted rate (like 1 or 2 cents here).
That being said, I still went solar but can't imagine the savings in the West.

I'll be blown away if someone even responds

So I have the legacy Arachnids on my current MS. Was hoping to swap rims when the Plaid arrived since I like the look of the older Arachnids better. Wondering now if they'll fit. Website says the legacy arachnids are for 2012-2020 so I'm guessing not.
Still wouldn't want the new arachnids since the tires and wheels necessary to achieve the stated top speed won't be available until Fall and would plan on getting those. Not that I plan on going 200mph regularly, but a trip out to the salt flats would be epic.
My order still says July estimate even with the 19" and white seats and carbon interior...not too inclined to believe it though.

Virginia just established Time of Use rates earlier this year. Off peak during summer is 5am until 3pm and 6pm to midnight. Super Off Peak is midnight to 5am. No On Peak on weekends and during most federal holidays.
| On Peak ($$$) | $0.229038 |
| Off Peak ($$) | $0.095826 |
| Super Off Peak ($) | $0.077139 |

Well that was quick...while typing that up I had the question out to my SA if they'd fit. He reached out to service and they said it would likely not fit due to a different offset.
The "old" arachnids will fit. Will just be a bit narrower than the new arachnids and the rears of yours will sit inward 5mm more. But bolt pattern and bore size is the same from all that I've read.
Front offset is same 40et
Rear is now 45et.
A quality 5mm hubcentric spacer for the rears will be safe and have your old arachnids with exact same fitment as new arachnids.

Lol I was literally typing up asking if a spacer would be safe and you responded too quick! Thanks!
