He hit 1.3 G's early on so this car was hauling. Trap Speed somewhere in between 152-153 mph it look like. That 60 ft looked like it was less than1.5 too!

I took my LR car in for service today to have some issues I discovered at delivery fixed. The car will be there for a couple of weeks, so they gave me a Model S loaner car. I guess they still do offer Model S loaners, but maybe they don’t offer them to 3/Y owners. Not sure

Anyways, I have a vegan leather defect with several wrinkles on the drivers seat bolster and I asked if they could have the upholstery shop fix it. He said he would just get me a brand new drivers seat from Fremont. Has anyone ever heard of this? That sounded a bit extreme for a small section of vegan leather.

I wonder if they feel like it is just beyond fixable. Or cheaper to get a new seat. Considering the amount of spots in that photo, I would take the new seat.

As predicted... Model S and X prices are going up...

Tesla increases Model S and Model X prices by $5,000

Tesla has just released a $5,000 price increase for the base versions (Long Range) of both Model S and Model...

electrek.co

Last month, Tesla finally started deliveries of the new Model S – starting with the new Plaid top performance version, which also saw a $10,000 price increase last month. Now in an update to its online configurator, Tesla has decided to quietly implement a new $5,000 price increase for the base Long Range version of the flagship electric sedan:

The price jumps from $79,990 to $84,990 for the Dual Motor All-Wheel Drive Long Range version while the Plaid, which comes with faster acceleration and higher top speed, still starts at $129,990. Tesla had only started recently delivering the new Long Range Model S after focusing on Plaid deliveries last quarter.
At the same time, Tesla also increased the base price of the Model X, which now starts at $94,990:

Exactly my thoughts!

It is on the internet now, which means it has to be true

My mood just got a boost seeing the gray 19s on a refresh.. Those damn 19s have been super annoying these past few weeks lmao

A few people were getting 152-153 on the street. On a track, Brooks ‘probably’ got 153-155. He’s the man to get it done

Absolutely! My guess is 9.17-9.22 @153-156 mph.

Next week, @2021plaid avatar is them wearing their newly minted DragTime t-shirt.

 

[Richmonder]

Maybe take your head out of your arse first before talking sh!t? I'm in no mood and @Tigers is rarely here anymore, lol!

I'm not making this up. This has been conventional wisdom for many years with reports of SA's in multiple locations giving this explanation.

Still can't get used to the rebranding of vinyl.

I don't really understand all of the angst associated with the front license plate bracket. It comes off really easily and leaves no damage or holes behind. It seems like a nonissue. I think we are lucky that we don't need to order bumper plugs to cover some unsightly holes. Several members have removed it themselves in a matter of minutes. My detail shop removed it without issue. They said it took less than 5 minutes to remove it and they didn't even charge me for the removal.

It is probably the outer covering of the seat, I had my leather replaced years ago on my Thunderbird, basically the surface can be removed and a new one slid on, at least in my case.

And we’re supposed to believe what Tesla SA’s say is accurate? . Oh gosh, conventional wisdom has actually been to not believe a word a Tesla SA says.

My seat in the P100D looked identical to this. I hated letting the car go so I never had it looked at. I’d leave it but that’s just me.
Edit: or have it looked at when it’s already at service.

 

[umair239]

Surprised no one is talking about this. This must be the only verified picture of the 19s?

My God! So the SA at Cincy and the other one in Nashville were telling the truth. They did deliver 1 LR with 19" wheels at both locations

It looks sooo much better without the plate holder, luckily my state doesn't issue front plates.
