Yeah I'm guessing it's more like 20-25lbs due to the heavier 2022 LEDs, PER HEADLIGHT. So that's an extra 50lbs over the front wheels compared to the previous Plaids.

omg it'll be so slow now! The Taycan will destroy it!
Yep, now you won't even need a Turbo S. The base Taycan will murder a Plaid, even in reverse.

It is true. I realized now. New is not better. I wonder if I can reject delivery and ask my SA to search for Refresh 1.0?

I heard the new hinges are made of lighter titanium, reducing weight and increasing the 0-60 time. I dunno that’s just what I heardDUDE NONE OF THIS CONFIRMED. Hinges were a guess. And who told you that the car is slower?????

You know what I heard? That the Model S will soon be getting real whoopie cushions as the seats. Screw the fake ones! Even better, these will link to the vehicle's vision system, and determine whether or not this person is favored by the owner. If the person is not favored, the whoopie cushions will auto-fill with air from an onboard compressor, and LET 'ER RIP! And the best part? These can be filled with your favorite scent and strength of Liquid-*ass!
The innovation just keeps coming!

But not as many! And we know that LEDs weight a LOT, thus the weight increase.

NOOOOOOO! ELON YOU SHADY TRICKSTER! *sugar* COMPANY!
Oy! Don't talk about yourself that way!
I’m going to unlock my hold soon. Will be canceled if I don’t by the 13th.

Only way I’ll be able to take delivery is if it takes longer than mid April to be available. I’m waiting on my slow ass builder to finish my house. It’s tough to tell from this thread but has anyone hit that they’re ready on a similar build and seen how long they’re estimating?
Not like asking will change what happens to me I just don’t want to get my hopes up any more if I’m doomed to get a delivery date of 2 weeks.

And do not forget the the added wind drag of more LEDs.
Let me explain... light is energy. There is more energy protruding frontwards and will have a thruster effect in a negative manner.

In all seriousness, apparently the cup holders on the refresh 2.0 have been updated, according to the people at TWraps.com. Cup Holder Insert for 2021 Refresh Tesla Model S / Model X (Plaid & Long Range)
I wonder what the difference is? Probably just a change to the shape, but it would be sweet if they had heated and cooled cup holders, ha ha.
My recently replaced console has new cup holders. They have raised portions that trap narrower bottles etc. Definitely better.

2022 Refreshed Model S / Plaid - Cup holder too small?
My 2022 Model S Plaid's cup holders are too small... While a lot of you are asking about refreshed S cup holder inserts because your cup holders are too big, I found mine has 3 little rubbers that make my cup holders ridiculously small (that it can't even fit a regular workout bottle). Anyone...

Absolutely. And I love these rabbit holes we go down.
